  Speaker 1: The following.
• 0:03
  Speaker 2: He's a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
• 0:09
  Speaker 3: Cowboys.
• 0:12
  Speaker 4: This is Cowboys Storyline, brought you by Gillette, the official
• 0:17
  Speaker 4: razor of the Dallas Cowboys.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Here's Nick Eatman. Why do I get the feeling we're
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: gonna have a fun show here today? I think we
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: are Cowboys Storyline. It's Friday, August twenty ninth. I'm Nick Eatman,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: and yes it happened. Micah Parsons was traded. Shocking, shocking
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: news for sure. I still it's been hasn't been twenty
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: four hours, but I'm still it's hard to process. I've
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: written an article, I've been on a couple of different
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: radio calls, podcasts, this one, of course, we're about to
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: get started, and I still don't know what I feel
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: about it. I see some of the reasoning and why
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: you had to do it, and why the Cowboys did it,
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, one of the
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: best football players this team's ever had is not on
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: the team, and it could have been avoided probably, but
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: it wasn't. So we'll talk about all that, and I'll
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: try to sprinkle in my thoughts here, you know, now
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: and then between the calls. But I do want to
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: open things up and let you guys kind of do
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: your thing. Let's not rant forever, Let's not you know,
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: let's not go too long. Let's just let's kind of
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: get in and out at the best we can, knowing
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: that we got to share the ball here today, A
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: lot of people want to get in, a lot of
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: people have things to say. It's a huge, huge news,
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: and you know, we'll see what this means for this
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: team this year and in upcoming years. All right, let's
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: start Gary in New Mexico is first off? Gary, what's up?
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: Man?
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: Hey man? It is a great day to be a
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: Cowboys fan. I haven't been this excited since Jerry bought
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: the team in nineteen eighty nine. What I saw from
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: Jerry Jones last night was the closest thing I've seen
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: to what I saw as a junior in high school
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: when he bought the Cowboys. I think he got tired
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: of all the bs.
• 2:02
  Speaker 6: He's tired of.
• 2:02
  Speaker 5: Paying money to players that don't want to be there.
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: Here's the I love Michael Parsons. He's a great talent,
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: but the bottom line is this, He's an undersized defensive end.
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: He's worn down at the end of each of his
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: first three seasons. Last year he missed significant time with
• 2:16
  Speaker 5: an injury. That's a trend. He doesn't want to be
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: there in the offseason. They have one playoff win with
• 2:22
  Speaker 5: him over the last four years. We had that without him.
• 2:25
  Speaker 5: This was a good move. If we're going to get
• 2:27
  Speaker 5: back to where we want to be, it's going to
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: take a bold move. It was bold to move off
• 2:32
  Speaker 5: the Landry and bring in Jimmy. It was bold to
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: trade herschel Walker and Jerry got trashed for both of those,
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: and he's getting trashed for this one. But I firmly
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: believe and I disagree. I think they're better now, I
• 2:43
  Speaker 5: really do, and I think when this is all said
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: and done, Jerry Jones is going to get the last laugh.
• 2:48
  Speaker 5: I am all in with Jerry on this move, and
• 2:50
  Speaker 5: I am as fired up for a season as I
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: have ever been. Thank you for taking my car, all.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Right, Gary, appreciate that. All right, that's how we get
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: it started. I don't know if you're going to if
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: you're gonna share, if everyone on here is going to
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: share those thoughts, But that's fine that you don't have
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: to do that. That's that's one way of looking at it.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: And and all I'm saying that when I say better today, tomorrow, whatever,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: I just I just feel like, you know, it's it's
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: the game's played right off the edge. And to lose
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: an edge rusher like that and gain a run stopping
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: defensive tackle, you know, where's the passport is gonna come from.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: These other guys are are solid, They're they're pretty good.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: They were pretty good with Micah as the number one guy.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Let's see, we're about to find out. I mean if
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: if they they feel like they've got something else in
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: Ezeraku and some of these other guys. But I see
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: your point from the long term. And yeah, you know Jerry,
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: Jerry didn't hold back. Really he never does, but uh
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: he didn't hold back of course yesterday. All right, Chuck
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: d Bridge City, Texas is next, Chuck, Nick, how are
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: you doing.
• 3:51
  Speaker 7: I'm good, h I just wanted to chime in on
• 3:53
  Speaker 7: this mic stuff, like everybody else is. I'm sure.
• 3:56
  Speaker 8: Uh.
• 3:57
  Speaker 7: With Micah, I felt the talent was there. It was
• 4:00
  Speaker 7: very to me. He came off as very Uh, he's
• 4:04
  Speaker 7: kind of full of himself. He always thought it was
• 4:05
  Speaker 7: the fastest play running back. Uh, he was.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: More sweet to say, kind of well he said he's
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: kind to me.
• 4:15
  Speaker 7: He was more about himself than than the team. Right, Yes,
• 4:20
  Speaker 7: he had too much of a big head. In my opinion,
• 4:22
  Speaker 7: talent was there, but it was just time to move.
• 4:26
  Speaker 7: And Uh, another thing I want to say, it seemed
• 4:29
  Speaker 7: like they kind of botched this deal and the McCarthy deal.
• 4:33
  Speaker 7: Is this something that maybe Jerry's just Is this more
• 4:36
  Speaker 7: of a Steven taking over? Is Jerry just kind of
• 4:40
  Speaker 7: he's not he don't have it like he used to.
• 4:42
  Speaker 7: I'm not saying that, but just seem that way.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: What are you talking about? Botched? What deal?
• 4:48
  Speaker 7: Well, didn't he want McCarthy and then they couldn't come
• 4:51
  Speaker 7: to an agreement, and then McCarthy ended up leaving a
• 4:55
  Speaker 7: similar deal where we want him.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: And then I I mean, I think what it came
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: down to was, hey, you could beat the head coach,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: we need someone else to call the plays and he
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: didn't want to agree to that. So okay, well if
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: we can't agree, we can't agree. I mean, like, I
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: don't know about it botched. I wouldn't say the McCarthy
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: getting McCarthy back or whatever is anything in the same
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: neighborhood as this one. But well we'll find out. I mean,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: you don't really know about botching any deals until later.
• 5:27
  Speaker 7: Right, I guess I'm just I don't know. I seem
• 5:32
  Speaker 7: that they're not as able to get stuff done like
• 5:34
  Speaker 7: they used to, And in a way I'm glad they didn't,
• 5:37
  Speaker 7: but in a way I am a little bit hurt.
• 5:39
  Speaker 7: You know, I did have his jersey and now what
• 5:41
  Speaker 7: I'm I gonna do with it type deal? But hey,
• 5:45
  Speaker 7: let's see what we got and let's just trust in
• 5:47
  Speaker 7: them and hopefully we do something with these picks in
• 5:50
  Speaker 7: the future.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: All Right, That's all he can hope for. Really. All Right,
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: thanks a lot, Chuck. Let's keep it going here, Dylan
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: one of the captains. Let's see what he has to say.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Dylan North for Florida and it.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to talk about the big news yesterday,
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: you know, Ryan Flinoy was released and just kidds.
• 6:06
  Speaker 9: Yeah, MIKEE.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: Parsons right, still processing a little bit. We had a
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: space last night, a lot of emotions, a lot of positivity,
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: which was was a little surprised, but there was a
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: lot of positivity last night. And really, the big problem
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: that I have with this trade is, first off, you
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: don't get better immediately. Your team just got worse, and
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: that's not really debatable. You got worse in the immediate future.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: And you traded your maybe best player to a team
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: that has you whooped your ass and twenty twenty three
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: in the playoffs and you played them more than any
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: other team in the playoffs in the last second and
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: they won every single game. And so you just gave
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: them more ammunition ammunition, And what was the return. You
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: got a couple of draft picks that will be I
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: would assume twenty four to thirty two. And you know,
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: you go through the list of guys that you took
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: the last five times you were picked them into the twenties,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: it was the only one that's any good or you know,
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: at a level that's acceptable. When you're looking at Michaeh
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: Parsons for comp would be like a Tyler Smith, Well yeah,
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: I want so you got a twenty percent success straight
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: in potentially getting guys a similar talent level to Micaeh Parsons.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: I don't like those odds. And so are they gonna
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of variables. Are they gonna package it
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: and move up? Are they gonna trade for the player.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: There's a lot to see. They also open up some
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: cap space so that maybe they can play in free
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: agency that they haven't historically. But that opens up a
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: lot of space. Maybe they can intend pickings. There's a
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: lot of variables to consider in this, but when you
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: look at who they traded it to and the potential
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: return on that from that team, you also got a
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: DT who maybe in the back half of his career.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: You know, he was sart it last year. So I
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: don't love it. I thought they could have got more back,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: but it is what it is at this point, and
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: just real quick, I want to throw in because I'm
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: not gonna be able to call it extra come on
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: vacation at I spump thro all. My prediction for the
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: score for next week with the Eagles, We're going to
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: go twenty seven to twenty four.
• 7:52
  Speaker 10: Cowboys.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: I don't really think they're gonna win, but let's have fun.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: Brandon Aubrey win's on a sixty nine yard field goal.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: Thanks, Okay, awesome? That that would be That would be
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: great if if you know, I'm not saying that the Cowboys.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: I think they'll I think they'll they'll play well keep
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: it close. I really do. I I then they they
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: may win this game. I don't even know whether I'm
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: not even there yet. You know, we're we're still we're
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: less than I mean, we're less than a week away.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, the next Friday show will be sitting I'll
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: be sitting right here talking about last night's game in Philly.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: So that that's that's how real this is getting you're
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: right about yeah, I mean, if you're picking in the twenties, uh, yeah,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: we've seen the success. Some of it's been good, some
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: of it hasn't been good yet. But you like you,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: like you said, and you allude to you could pack
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: it to this up if you if you want to,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: and and and and maybe you know they trade one
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: of these picks this year. That's one thing that Jerry said.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: Steven said it as well, is that they could maybe
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: make a trade and get another player, but I'd be
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: careful with that. Didn't have to be a player that
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: I could get for a couple of years here, not
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: just you know, not renting players here. And and I
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: think it's safe to say I would trade Green Bay pick.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't trade my own. I mean, that's just that's
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: just being logical. All Right, let's go to uh Lewis
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: in Langston, Oklahoma.
• 9:18
  Speaker 11: Say what's going on? Good to start get good? Good
• 9:21
  Speaker 11: to start the year off with y'all. All Right, I'm
• 9:24
  Speaker 11: gonna just go ahead and give him a little two
• 9:25
  Speaker 11: tents out. I'm not even really too mad about the
• 9:28
  Speaker 11: the Michael trade. I mean, I want him to be
• 9:30
  Speaker 11: on the team, but hey, it's done, it's over with.
• 9:34
  Speaker 11: So and I was listening to you earlier, maybe we
• 9:36
  Speaker 11: packaged one of these up and bring in another body
• 9:39
  Speaker 11: or something like that. But at this point now he's
• 9:41
  Speaker 11: not on the team. So I'm just waiting for Thursday.
• 9:44
  Speaker 11: I'm making plans now. And I was really wondering, uh,
• 9:48
  Speaker 11: because I started my little fantasy league. I'm the commissioner,
• 9:51
  Speaker 11: and I was wondering, if you had to start you,
• 9:53
  Speaker 11: if you had to have you a first round draft pick,
• 9:55
  Speaker 11: who would you pick first?
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: And I'll listen, hold on clarify that a little bit
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: for me. If I had are you talking fantasy football?
• 10:04
  Speaker 11: Yeah, if you was doing fantasy football, whould you drafted first?
• 10:08
  Speaker 9: Well?
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: I play it differently. I mean I'm taking Barkley first. Yeah, OK,
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: for different reason. I mean because I mean, I've done it.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: That's that's how I operate. I'm I'm I headed my
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: bets all the time. I think he's a great player.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: He's gonna catch, he's gonna run, he's gonna score touchdowns.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: And you know what if he has a really bad
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: day and screws over my fantasy team, well maybe that
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: means that those that team in Green lost and so
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: you know, hey, I'm gonna win one way or another.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Or or if he goes off and has two hundred
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: rushing yards, like well that sucks for the Cowboys, but
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: you know he's got fantasy. So yeah, I take Eagles.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: I take you know, I think I think my team
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: has Barkley and Jayden Daniels on it, so that, yeah,
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: that's how I operate. So I'm different than everybody else,
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: but from a Cowboy fans, I think they can understand that.
• 10:55
  Speaker 11: Okay, all right, Okay, well well I might draft his
• 10:59
  Speaker 11: old Sunday, so I'm taking that indvisement.
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: I didn't even think about it like that.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: That's that's why I look at it like I'm gonna
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: If I'm gonna lose something, maybe I'll try to win
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: on the other end.
• 11:08
  Speaker 11: So all right, I go hold you too long.
• 11:11
  Speaker 6: I know a lot of people want to talk about
• 11:12
  Speaker 6: it later.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: Thanks that being said, Lewis. I'll say this off the air.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: I mean I'm not I'm not saying go go draft
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: the Daniel Jones from the Giants. He's not even the
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: quarterback anymore. But I mean I'm not saying go do that.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: It doesn't work for everybody for every situation. Don't. Don't
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: go get zach Ertz as you're tied in. But I'm
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: just saying in certain cases that makes sense. That's kind
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: of the way I look at it. All right, let's
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: go to Aligue in Florida. Ali. You might have been
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: onto something yesterday. What's up?
• 11:39
  Speaker 12: Good morning, sir.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: How about you? I'm good? How are you?
• 11:42
  Speaker 12: First of all, I want to tell you we love you.
• 11:45
  Speaker 12: Thank you Today storyline podcast. What I said today is
• 11:53
  Speaker 12: the day we all need the storyline podcast.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, So I have a.
• 11:59
  Speaker 12: Different First of all, I Cowboys organization. I'll watched the
• 12:06
  Speaker 12: Netflix last night, all of them. We love the Cowboys.
• 12:11
  Speaker 12: So I'm not gonna bash Michael or mister Jones. But
• 12:15
  Speaker 12: I have a different take this agent David Malaga cannot
• 12:22
  Speaker 12: pronounce his last name. He represents four Green Bay Packers.
• 12:28
  Speaker 12: Now he has it George Pickens as well. I'm saying
• 12:34
  Speaker 12: when they I remember Michael the whole time he says,
• 12:38
  Speaker 12: I'm gonna give me Jerry Jones do that. First of all,
• 12:42
  Speaker 12: you have agent when you signed the contract as the man,
• 12:47
  Speaker 12: you're gonna honor it.
• 12:48
  Speaker 10: That's number one.
• 12:50
  Speaker 12: Number two, if the handshake was done, then he can
• 12:56
  Speaker 12: finish it off. But I think this agent and new
• 13:02
  Speaker 12: way in advance muddy the water with the Green Bay
• 13:06
  Speaker 12: so lure that Mie michaeuple better contract. But this is
• 13:12
  Speaker 12: my take. But I'm gonna get off the line and
• 13:16
  Speaker 12: thank you very much for being you.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: All right, Thank you, Ellie, appreciate that. Thanks for the call.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: I mean you said yesterday, I remember you saying, and
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: I and I I agreed with you. I didn't agree
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: with you as much verbally as I did. When you
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: know inside, when you said maybe him going to get
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: a second opinion is actually getting a physical. There was
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: something definitely there because Jerry had said basically they had
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: agreed on a deal with the packers. Now they had
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: to just work on a on a contract. And there's
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: something I don't know if fish's the right word. But
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: it took a long time for the Cowboys to figure
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: out how to get this contract done, and yet green
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: Bay gets done in three days. Not sure about that one,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: But you could also say that, you know, it wasn't
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: as much about the parameters of the deal. Once you
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: know that, once green Bay is willing to go, you know,
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: five years or four years, the money's not as much
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: of a difference as people think. I really, I think
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: that there's a lot of people that think it's forty
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: seven and forty one. It's really not. It's pretty close.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: This thing's more. It's it's a little bit more than money.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: But you know, I there's something changed, something changed between
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: April and now. You listen to Jerry's press conference, and
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: you know, and Jerry and Stephen were up there and
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: they're talking about how they have to stop the run
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: and the playoffs and and all these things. But nothing's
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: changed since April. Because April you were gonna sign them.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: He had a handshake deal that you would sign him.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: So now you know, there there's something that I don't
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: think the Cowboys were willing to say, and I and
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: it's that that when he decided that he didn't want
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: be here. He had not only said it with the
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: trade request on social media, but then he showed it
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: in his in his actions at training camp, his actions
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: at the game of course, and all of that. He
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: said it, he showed it. And somebody told me last
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: night that no, him laying on the table is not
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: the reason that they traded him. Him laying on the
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: table is what you guys finally saw that we've seen
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: for four years. That's what I was told last night.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: So that that that you know, his actions, this is
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: not anything new as the way he kind of went
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: about himself and and and you know, cared about what
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: he cared about and great football player, and so that's
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: the that's the thing. And I know I said I would,
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: I'd kind of let you guys talk, but I want
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: to mention this because we all a lot of you
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: guys have seen the Netflix show that you know that's
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: been out all eight episodes probably and Jerry tolerate a
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: lot of things. I mean, the whole show was around
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: basically the nineties Cowboys, and Michael Levin was front and center.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: When you're a great football player, you tolerate a lot
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: of things. They tolerated the things that Hayley would do.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: They tolerated some of the stuff, the offensive lineman, even
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: Nate all of and of course Michael and I think
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: it comes to a point where you know, you tolerate this,
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: But when when you don't want to be here and
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: you're making and you're showing that you're above the team
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: and you're causing problems, then then how much do you
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: really want to want to tolerate that? And then when
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: the next contract comes, is it worth it? And that's
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: what they think had to figure out. I think in
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: April that money was worth it. I think as they
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: and I.
• 16:46
  Speaker 12: Who was it?
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: Was it? Josh Josh Rodriguez was on the last show.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: He probably said it on the last show because it
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: was a great line about they put his his leadership
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: to the test and and and and he didn't pass.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: Now he's still winning because he got he got the
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: deal that he wanted in it. Now he's in Green Bay,
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: he's out of there. And then now that they'll deal
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: with them. So it's it's, it's it's it's a tough one.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: It's a tough pill to swallow. I think I said
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: this on the radio earlier. This is like going going
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: to the to the doctor, you know, and you've got
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: to you've got to take your medicine. You gotta get shots.
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's for the greater good. It's going to
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: be good for you down the line, but right now
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: it hurts like hell. That's that's that's really what it
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: comes down to. All right, let's go to Lester and Minnesota.
• 17:32
  Speaker 13: Morning.
• 17:32
  Speaker 6: Mack Hey, Lester, Hey, man, let's go.
• 17:39
  Speaker 13: I don't like I don't like what happened, but you know,
• 17:43
  Speaker 13: it was probably it was the best choice that Garry made,
• 17:46
  Speaker 13: but he put himself in this position. I don't want
• 17:49
  Speaker 13: to get into it. How just that part is to
• 17:52
  Speaker 13: be continued?
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Are you are you saying by not signing him earlier,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: is that kind of what you're alluding to?
• 17:59
  Speaker 13: Like, yeah, oh yeah, but I got a lot to
• 18:02
  Speaker 13: say about that. So let's okay, we'll do that. We'll
• 18:05
  Speaker 13: do that next week, okay, but you know, until we
• 18:09
  Speaker 13: get an offensive and defensive line at the same time.
• 18:13
  Speaker 10: This is what we got and we've improved.
• 18:16
  Speaker 6: For the long term.
• 18:18
  Speaker 13: So that's all I'm gonna say today. Go Cowboys. Continued.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: All Right, I appreciate that, I know, and I know
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: a lot of you guys have things to say, and
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: I'm you know, I'm with you, and this is this
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: is a good example of sharing the ball and being
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: good team players. Is kind of the theme of all this.
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: That's what we want on the storyline. Team. We want
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: to be a team player. You want to you know,
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: go in, get in and out. Let's so we're keeping
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: We're gonna keep up with that Robbie in Coco Beach, Florida. Robbie,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: how you doing fine?
• 18:50
  Speaker 8: Outstanding man? Okay, I wasn't last night. I was a
• 18:53
  Speaker 8: little stressing, you know, trying to digest this because he's
• 18:56
  Speaker 8: a phenomenal talent. But like you just had a couple
• 19:00
  Speaker 8: of minutes ago. In the long run, I think this
• 19:03
  Speaker 8: is going to turn out better for our team. I
• 19:05
  Speaker 8: wish we could have got a little better compensation. I
• 19:07
  Speaker 8: wish we didn't trade them to the dang Packers who
• 19:09
  Speaker 8: have whooked our I don't know if I could say
• 19:12
  Speaker 8: a whooked our butts for the last couple of years.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: Did you see that game two years ago, the last
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: playoff game? I did they beat their ass? I'm sorry,
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, no other way to say there's no other
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: way to say it. I think it's the worst loss
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: since I've covered the team. It's the worst loss that
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: I've ever covered experience for the Cowboys. Expectations were here
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: and you were done. You were you were defeated in
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: the first quarter ye at home.
• 19:40
  Speaker 8: So that's the only thing that pisses me off about
• 19:43
  Speaker 8: all of this is that we traded them to the
• 19:45
  Speaker 8: dang Packers, and I wish we could have gotten a
• 19:47
  Speaker 8: little bit more, maybe a third round pick. And Josh
• 19:50
  Speaker 8: Rodriguez might have said that too.
• 19:52
  Speaker 10: I agree with that.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: I agree with that, and I probably would have done that,
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: you know, because what they have to figure out out
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: is can they sign this guy for the for the contract,
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: you know, and then once you get that done, that's
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: where I think you squeezed a little bit. That's I'm
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: The movie is ridiculous, the Draft Day movie with Kevin
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: Costner and all that, But that's where you just say
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: put him on hold and say what else do we want?
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: Let's get David Putney because I freaking feel like it.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: That's what I think they should have done. Let's let's
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: get a guy like that. And they didn't do that.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: But for the most part it was it was fine,
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: But yeah.
• 20:27
  Speaker 8: All right, I'll let you go. Man, We'll talk to you.
• 20:29
  Speaker 10: Assume man, talk to you.
• 20:31
  Speaker 8: We're gonna beat the Eagles.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: I agree, all right, cool, all right, Robbie, all right,
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: Well so far man, that's seven calls, and everyone's kind
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: of in. I think everyone's about the same. Where if
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: we would have done this show, and I know they
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: did the spaces uh podcast last night, if they would
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: have done the show last night, probably would have been
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: a little different. Uh, But I think now you're kind
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: of letting it sink in a little bit. I just
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: met Kenny Clark upstairs. I mean, uh, if he's if
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: he's as good a play as he is a nice guy, great,
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: we just got a star. He's a super nice guy.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: But but then again, I've met a lot of nice
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: guys in the locker room before that weren't the best player.
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: So I know that's not that's not what it's all about.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: I'll say this, you know, let's not forget that part
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: of it. Guy was there nine years. I mean that
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: guy was there as long as Dak has been here.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: Same draft and uh, you know he's actually been a
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: little bit longer, like a day or two, because he
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: was a first round pick. But I mean just think
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: about that. I mean, you know, it's like Tank Lawrence
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: was here for that long. You know, it's it's a
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: big deal. So for him to leave Green Bay, him
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: and his wife and his kids, I mean, they were
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: just ecstatic, like like crazy. Uh, you know this is
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: this is a big deal for them. And let's see.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: I know that, you know he yeah, he's on the
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: back back end of his career. He's still but those
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: defensive tackles, you know, they take care of their body.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: I mean, they can still play at a high level
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: up until mid thirties. And we've seen it. We've seen
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: it in the last few years. We've seen Hankins play
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: like that. We'll see Lynn Vald Joseph. This guy's better
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: than both of them, So that could be the case.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: All right, let's keep it going. Chris and Saratoga Springs,
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: New York.
• 22:09
  Speaker 10: Hey, Nick, how are you good?
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: How are you doing?
• 22:12
  Speaker 10: I woke up this morning eating a lot of Crow
• 22:14
  Speaker 10: because yesterday I called in I said there was a
• 22:16
  Speaker 10: one percent chance he was going to get traded before
• 22:18
  Speaker 10: the season. So I had myself from Crow this morning.
• 22:21
  Speaker 10: For sure.
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: Let me see, did I write something down on that
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: because I was trying to see there was a call
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: there might have been you where I was like about that.
• 22:31
  Speaker 10: It was it was like, I just me perfectly.
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: You were right. I was hoping you were right.
• 22:38
  Speaker 10: I didn't want me to happen.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: I did not want this happen. And I think when
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: I started the show a few minutes ago, it might
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: have sounded like I was like joyful or anything, not
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: at all, like I hate that they traded Michael Party.
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: I hate that it didn't work out. That's what That's
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: what I hate, not about the trade, all that. I
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: hate that it didn't work out because Jerry wants these
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: kind of players, and Mike a phenomenal player, and that
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: he could help your team. I was hoping he would
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: get mature enough to kind of, you know, get to
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: that point where he sees it and it's all. It
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: just didn't happen. And that's it's just sad because it
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: shouldn't have led to this. It shouldn't. This to me
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: feels like what the Falcons must think when they lost
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: Dion Sanders, because Dion was outstanding and then he's going
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: to be outstanding for five to six more years somewhere
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: else and probably beating you a few times. That's what
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: this kind of feels like to me.
• 23:31
  Speaker 10: I one, I one hundred percent agree with the comparison
• 23:34
  Speaker 10: with Dion. I just I just feel awful. I mean,
• 23:39
  Speaker 10: Parsons a generational player. I really didn't think trading him
• 23:43
  Speaker 10: right now we would get the best value. I think
• 23:45
  Speaker 10: if we trade him at the end of the year,
• 23:46
  Speaker 10: when we knew what we would get for the picks
• 23:48
  Speaker 10: would be a little bit better. Or even if we
• 23:51
  Speaker 10: traded him before the season, before this year's draft, he
• 23:53
  Speaker 10: probably could have got more for him. So that part,
• 23:55
  Speaker 10: I really, I really wish we could have waited. But
• 23:58
  Speaker 10: I do love I mean, if you had to ask
• 24:01
  Speaker 10: me what our weakest point of our team is is
• 24:03
  Speaker 10: defensive tackle, and we just completely upgraded the defensive tackle
• 24:08
  Speaker 10: side of the ball. We could never stop the run.
• 24:11
  Speaker 10: Even with Michael Parkers, we couldn't stop the run. So
• 24:13
  Speaker 10: hopefully the young guys step up. Sam Williams comes back
• 24:17
  Speaker 10: off that ACL injury and has a big year because
• 24:20
  Speaker 10: we need him, and then stopping the run is going
• 24:22
  Speaker 10: to be huge for us. And I really think Clark
• 24:25
  Speaker 10: is going to help us. He immediately upgrades our defensive
• 24:28
  Speaker 10: line position. Immediately, and that's where I think we needed
• 24:30
  Speaker 10: the most help, for sure.
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: No doubt about that. I agree with everything that you
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: just said. You get acknowledged that. I just think last
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: night the fans didn't want to hear we need to
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: stop the run. I mean, just that's that's not and
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: I don't think we even wrote that in our articles.
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: We're like that, that's not what this is about. In
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: my opinion, it's to me, it's the pros and cons
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: when you're doing the list, and so you're like, all right,
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: what are the pros of this? Like, well, we saved
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: some money here and this and this and that, and
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: you know, now he's now he's not as disruptive in
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: the locker room, and you know our run defense is
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: gonna be better too. I mean, you know, but those
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: aren't the ones. I mean, you wouldn't you wouldn't take that.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: And and and just look in the draft, I mean,
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: the who's who gets taken in the top five those
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: pass rushers off the edge, not the ones that that
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: that eat up a lot of you know, blocks on
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: the inside. And the guy that did that and did
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: both was Aaron Donald. And you know, and there were
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: some times last night where I was like, you know,
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: we're talking about Aaron Donald here. I mean, just the
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: way that the Kenny Clark stuff was. But you're right
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: about that. He's a big upgrade and you know for
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: defensive tackle for sure, for.
• 25:38
  Speaker 10: Sure, for sure. And the last thing, do you do
• 25:40
  Speaker 10: you honestly think the needle with Jerry Jones was the
• 25:44
  Speaker 10: fact about the leadership of Parsons because he always pays
• 25:47
  Speaker 10: his players, especially leaders on his team. I've never seen
• 25:50
  Speaker 10: him in my whole entire life of being a Cowboys
• 25:53
  Speaker 10: fan not pay a player like this, and and and
• 25:56
  Speaker 10: that's a leader like Dak He's the highest paid person
• 25:59
  Speaker 10: in the NFL, He's a leader like Do you think
• 26:01
  Speaker 10: that was a big aspect of he saw his actions
• 26:03
  Speaker 10: and and that that was a tipping point?
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: Do you think one thousand percent? Yes, And Chris, we're
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: going to keep it rolling. I'll finish this point after
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: thank you for the call. One thousand percent. Yes, Do
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: I think that it's more than football? Because you're right,
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: the proof is out there. This guy was. You know,
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: I'm watching the highlights. That's making me sick actually because
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: you see how how really really dominant he is and
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: from all over the place, and so that's why. And
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: I tweeted this and fans didn't like it, But that's why.
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: It's like, it's got to be more than this. There's
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: more than what you what you know, I'm gonna I'm
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: gonna make this point. Some people in life, they're they're
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: good at everything. You know, They're they're good at at
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: different things. Okay, the best thing you do, maybe the
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: best thing I do, I don't know, is throw out
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: random cowboy trivia in facts and stuff like that that
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: that don't really matter or whatever. Chris Beam, well, I
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: mean the best thing he does is is these podcasts
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: and he can fix a problem in like five seconds.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: But playing cornhole is probably the best thing that Chris
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: Beam does. You know, from what I've seen Micah Parsons,
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: the best thing that he does that I see is
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: is rush the passer. That's the very best thing that
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: he does. Now, other guys they do other things. Well,
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: they're they're they're great in the community, They're they're great
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: on camera. They they watch film better than anything. Good player,
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: But man, do they they can study this and that,
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: or or they bench press four hundred pounds or whatever.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: It is the best thing Micah does is rush the passer.
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: And that's what you see every Sunday. It's what I
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: see is what we see. So we see the best
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: thing he does, and so therefore that's what we're going
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: to miss. What you don't see is some of the
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: other aspects of it that make this thing what it was.
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: And and and that's that's what's so hard to grasp,
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: like what they couldn't make this work. You're gonna watch
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: these highlights. You're gonna see Micah get two sacks, and
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: you're gonna be like, we couldn't figure this out, and
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: and you're you're gonna be right about that. It has
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: to be more to it, and and it is. I
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: I don't think anyone in the locker room is upset.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: Maybe Trayvon Diggs. I don't think anyone else in the
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: locker rooms too upset by this. I really, I really don't.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: I don't think the coaches are. I think if you
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: really knew everything that Micah was the he is a
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: pain in the ass for the left tackle. I think
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: he's a pain in the ass for everyone else over there.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: And that's just what is Kudos for being consistent, but
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: that's that's where these things. I have to take a break. Guys.
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I'll take a break. We got two collars
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: on the line. We'll be right back here.

• 30:44
  Speaker 1: in DC? How you doing it?
• 30:48
  Speaker 6: How you doing? How you doing? Thank you? I'm doing fine.
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: You I'm great. Thank you for holding I know you've
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: been holding for a little bit and first time call.
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: So what you got?
• 30:57
  Speaker 6: I agree, I'm happy with the trade, all right, I'm
• 31:00
  Speaker 6: not just what Jerry Jones did. We have a good
• 31:04
  Speaker 6: no tackle? I could mean, remember since Russell Maryland. Yeah,
• 31:08
  Speaker 6: so I can see what Jerry Jones trying to do.
• 31:11
  Speaker 6: A lot of people might don't like it, but from
• 31:13
  Speaker 6: watching the documentary, I can see that my owner haven't
• 31:17
  Speaker 6: really made a bad decision. He might have made a
• 31:21
  Speaker 6: decisions that we don't like as fans, but.
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Jay, he was, I mean he was a those tackle,
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: as Chris Bean just pointed out.
• 31:31
  Speaker 9: To me, but we moved him over.
• 31:35
  Speaker 16: Yeah he was.
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: He was not your prototype type. No, you're right, I mean,
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: and neither was leon Lett. I mean they played tackle
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: different schemes. But you're you're right. I mean, you know
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: Hankins was was was good, but but not not to
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: this level. So you have this And and to be fair,
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, Russell Maryland was a one time pro bowler.
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: I mean he was the first pick in the draft,
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: but he but he probably shouldn't have been even then.
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: I mean even then they knew he wasn't going to
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: be number one. It was just that that's that they
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: they picked him there because they signed him before Uh
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: he was probably a top ten player. But you're right,
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: you're right on all this. You're this is this is
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: one of the better defensive tackles that that the Cowboys
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: have had in a while at that nose tackle position.
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: All right, what else you got? What else you got from?
• 32:28
  Speaker 6: I'll figure we to get to the pass rushing. I
• 32:32
  Speaker 6: think there's a lot of other things that we can
• 32:34
  Speaker 6: do with a nod ticker that helped us get to
• 32:36
  Speaker 6: the pass rushing, that allowed us, you know, a couple
• 32:39
  Speaker 6: more feats.
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: I'm fine with that. I understand that, Yes, you can
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: scheme for that if it's okay, if it wasn't defensive
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: tackle that worried you. What other position worries you on
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: this team right now like this today? But what other
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: position do you look at and say, eh, I'm not
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: that comfortable.
• 33:00
  Speaker 6: A running back?
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: Running back? Okay, that wouldn't be mine, but but but
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: I that would be close, that would be but but
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: that wouldn't be one. What's what's your next position?
• 33:09
  Speaker 6: I can say a solid safety. Okay, we have I
• 33:13
  Speaker 6: would been a solid safety and the guys we got
• 33:16
  Speaker 6: coming along, but we haven't had a solid safety.
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: You're not playing along with me here, Thomas. I wouldn't
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: what I wanted you to say. The one that I
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: that I think, if it's not the tackle is probably corner. Okay,
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: in the corner, just because you got injured guys and
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: bland here. We don't know the reason why I say
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: that about generating. You know, scheming for past rush that's great.
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: But with Michael Parsons, you just said go rush and
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: and and he would get there and your cornerbacks just
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: look better because of that. So he was a guy
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: that was going to help you. So now if you're
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: you don't have him and you're scheming for it, that
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: means you might have to cover a second longer and
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: that doesn't look good right now from what we've seen
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: in training camp, you know, especially with A. J. Brown
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: and DeVante Smith sitting on the other side. So that's
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: what worries me a little bit. I don't love the
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: scheming for it. They better get there. They got to
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: get there, They got to get home quickly because your
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: cornerbacks are going to be on islands and I mean,
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: they could have a field day if they don't. So
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: that's that's only my my issue. But I mean that
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: that's going to be that's gonna be a problem. And
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: I think cornerback can get good when when Trayvon gets
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: back elm Bland revel at some point it could be
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: a strong position, but it's not that strong at the moment.
• 34:33
  Speaker 6: What about the one that we picked up that was
• 34:34
  Speaker 6: hurt last year, well, the one that we drafted.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's not there yet. He's not ready. He's going
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: to probably be. I mean I think it's for at
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: least four weeks that he'll be. He won't be on
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: the you know, on the roster yet, so uh, he's
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: still rehabing, you know. And then when and when he
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: does get there, I mean, he's still a rookie. He
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: hasn't ever played before, so I don't know if we
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: can expect much from him this year. I think everything's
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: bonus if end of the year he starts to play
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: plays well. I mean, I think he'll play before the
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: end of the year, but I just mean that'll probably
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: be the time we'll start to see him maybe you know,
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: what he really can do.
• 35:12
  Speaker 6: So all right, Okay, I appreciate you, thank you.
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: Heyd it Okay, Thomas, I love it. I love it.
• 35:20
  Speaker 8: I know.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: Hey, as I say to a lot of fans that
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: are in other areas in New York, the fans in Philly,
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: for you in Washington, d C. You know, thanks you
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: for doing what you do. I mean, it's not easy.
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: It's not easy being a Cowboy fan in general, just
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: in general days like this. But it's not easy being
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: a Cowboy fan in other places, especially in Washington where
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: they've had some success finally for a while. And then
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: when that happens, you know, you have to sit there
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: and and and kind of listen to that and deal
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: with it and fight with coworkers and friends and all
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. So keep doing what you do.
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: Glad you're a part of our storyline family. Keep calling back,
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: all right, who's next? Michael and Bowling Green? He's part
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: of the family. Michael, what's up.
• 35:57
  Speaker 17: Well, I've went through all the stages of grief in
• 36:01
  Speaker 17: the past twelve hours, and uh, where are you now?
• 36:06
  Speaker 17: I think I'm an acceptance. I'm an acceptance.
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: Acceptance because I believe because your choices are what I mean, like,
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: that's the thing.
• 36:14
  Speaker 17: Well, exactly, I had I had the phone a friend,
• 36:18
  Speaker 17: three different Cowboy fans, you know, and talk it out
• 36:21
  Speaker 17: with different people that I know, and yep, well, I
• 36:24
  Speaker 17: mean I look at like, okay, forty seven million dollars,
• 36:30
  Speaker 17: that's two million dollars more than my homes makes. I mean,
• 36:35
  Speaker 17: we couldn't do that.
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 36:39
  Speaker 17: Now, now Michaeh probably would have. He's probably gonna bring
• 36:42
  Speaker 17: home the same thing. You know, they're in Green Bay
• 36:45
  Speaker 17: that he would bring home in Dallas at like forty one.
• 36:49
  Speaker 8: Man.
• 36:49
  Speaker 17: But I mean, I you know, I had to look
• 36:52
  Speaker 17: at the negatives. Okay, you know you got you got
• 36:55
  Speaker 17: you know the static you get from Micah the podcast.
• 36:59
  Speaker 17: You know, he he he kind of wears out near
• 37:02
  Speaker 17: the end of the season. He uh you know he
• 37:05
  Speaker 17: uh uh you run at even you know, he.
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: Just had to.
• 37:09
  Speaker 17: I had to find all the negatives so I can
• 37:12
  Speaker 17: be like, Okay, we're gonna have four drafts, four to
• 37:15
  Speaker 17: one draft picks the next two years. We got he's Statistically,
• 37:20
  Speaker 17: Clark his rateds is the third best uh defensive tackle
• 37:25
  Speaker 17: in the NFL. So, you know, I'm just we've got
• 37:29
  Speaker 17: some good defensive you know, we got some good defense.
• 37:32
  Speaker 17: I'm just hoping that it won't be terrible. That that's
• 37:37
  Speaker 17: that's what I want. And I don't think it's gonna
• 37:39
  Speaker 17: be a bad bad Now we can sign you know,
• 37:43
  Speaker 17: we can sign uh uh Tyler. We can be able
• 37:47
  Speaker 17: to easily sign uh, you know, a kicker uh Blad.
• 37:52
  Speaker 17: I mean it's probably a lot easier to sign these
• 37:55
  Speaker 17: guys now with the cap space and everything. So I
• 38:00
  Speaker 17: I've been spending now. My initial when I thought, I
• 38:03
  Speaker 17: was like, oh, this isn't real. There's not what you know.
• 38:06
  Speaker 17: My initial was was, you know, the oh my gosh,
• 38:09
  Speaker 17: I'm not going to watch football this year. But I
• 38:12
  Speaker 17: had to go through everything, and I'm good and that
• 38:15
  Speaker 17: all right, And I just I wanted I called one
• 38:17
  Speaker 17: hundred I was gonna call it one hundred and twenty
• 38:19
  Speaker 17: five times today I got to one twenty three and
• 38:22
  Speaker 17: I got through. So, uh, I just wanted to vent
• 38:26
  Speaker 17: a little bit to you. So I'm glad I was
• 38:28
  Speaker 17: able to get through. But I'm sure this is the
• 38:31
  Speaker 17: single only topic you're going to have today.
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: I would imagine that, and I don't think we need
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: anything else.
• 38:37
  Speaker 9: I No, I agree.
• 38:38
  Speaker 17: Yeah.
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: Oh and one more thing, what's up on the.
• 38:43
  Speaker 17: Uh on the the on the UH the Cowboys show
• 38:48
  Speaker 17: on Netflix? When Dion got signed by the Cowboys, they
• 38:52
  Speaker 17: asked Carmen policy and saying, you know, did you think
• 38:55
  Speaker 17: about trying to match it? He said, it would be
• 38:58
  Speaker 17: irresponsible for us to match that off for the same thing.
• 39:02
  Speaker 17: I mean, we can't be in one hundred and seven
• 39:06
  Speaker 17: million with dak and and Parsons alone a year.
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's part of it. That that was that
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: was part of it. Is what what they already had,
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: what they already had had here with CD and Dak
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: and then him. I mean they could have done the
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: deal obviously, but it hurt. Yeah, it would, it would hurt.
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: But but then they're like, all right, is this worth it?
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: That's what they came down to. Is this worth it?
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: All right? Michael appreciate the call they had to decide.
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: You know, of all this things, this is going to
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: really chew up our cap space. Is this guy going
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: to be the difference maker? Is this everything that we
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: want for him to be? And you know, there's some
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: questions on his work, ethic and all that kind of stuff,
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: and does he take care of his body, does he study?
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: And uh, you know, for the first four or five
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: years he was the best athlete. He could just do it.
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: He could just he could just it didn't even make sense.
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: He didn't even look like a guy that was super strong,
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: but yet he was bull rushing people. I mean, is
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: he going to continue to be that guy? Probably? Like
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: that's the thing. Probably it's this. There was just so
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: many factors here. There was just so many factors, and
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: Micah said, hey, I don't need this. I don't need
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: forty million, I don't need all these things. He lied,
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: I mean he did or something changed. I mean he
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: said that. I mean he basically said, I don't have
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: to be that. I want to be here forever. He didn't.
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: He didn't want to be here forever, or he would
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: have or he would have done some of those things.
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: I know Jerry's taken a lot of a lot of
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: hits nationally, not so much here. But you know, I mean,
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: Jerry offered him a contract of the highest paid defensive
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: player or highest paid non quarterback in the history of
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: the league. And I don't think people even on the
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: show would say he's the best pass rusher in the league.
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: Is he better than what? Is he better than Miles Garrett?
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: It's close, It's all right there, it's close. But but
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: Jerry offered him as the most and he wanted him
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: here and with five years, which would help them because
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: they had a quarterback, because they had a receiver, that's
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: what worked the best for them. And that didn't matter
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: because he's like, hey, help me, I know what you want.
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: Here's what's gonna help us. That's what two way negotiation does,
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: because we've got that. We've got some offensive players for you,
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: so to get you the lead so you can go
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: rush the quarterback. But this is what we're gonna need
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: in the term. You know, we probably need a five
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: year deal. But still you're gonna get your money. You're
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: gonna get more guaranteed money. And he didn't want that.
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: And that's the thing. And let's before we get too
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: far down. Dak was the same way. Now, Dak was
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: sticking point on the five and four year deal because
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: they are thinking about the next contract, not just that one.
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: And so when you're thinking like that, and it's you know,
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: that's what you have to do, and that's what you
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: have agents to look out for you. But they certainly did.
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: All right, let's go to uh Zach in Germany.
• 42:08
  Speaker 18: Nick, what's going on?
• 42:09
  Speaker 7: Man?
• 42:12
  Speaker 10: Oh good?
• 42:12
  Speaker 18: You know figured out to call in. I want to
• 42:14
  Speaker 18: talk about Isaac Alac and I saw he's on the
• 42:16
  Speaker 18: San France practice squad.
• 42:18
  Speaker 10: Now I'm just kidding.
• 42:19
  Speaker 18: Uh, Tuesday, when I called in and I asked you
• 42:21
  Speaker 18: about Aaron Donald, I should have asked you about Kenny
• 42:23
  Speaker 18: Clark in two first round picks. But you know, yeah,
• 42:26
  Speaker 18: it looks it looks like the world has been set
• 42:29
  Speaker 18: on fire. I think I think you're making some good
• 42:32
  Speaker 18: points there. I also think, like you said, it takes
• 42:35
  Speaker 18: two to tangle man. And the question that I have
• 42:38
  Speaker 18: here is what what are the repercussions down the line
• 42:41
  Speaker 18: of in particular Jerry dealing with this went out and
• 42:47
  Speaker 18: then obviously you know, agent got involved, kind of fell apart,
• 42:50
  Speaker 18: and this is this is a you know, big move.
• 42:53
  Speaker 18: But for the people that are panicking, I mean, Mikeael
• 42:56
  Speaker 18: was a great player. Nobody's gonna not that. But I
• 42:59
  Speaker 18: would I would also say, we don't know what this
• 43:02
  Speaker 18: is going to lead to. That I was sitting on
• 43:04
  Speaker 18: my couch last night watching the documentary and it happened
• 43:09
  Speaker 18: to be right on the herschel Walker trade I was.
• 43:12
  Speaker 12: But yeah, the question I have.
• 43:17
  Speaker 18: For you is out defensive end. We'll take defensive event
• 43:21
  Speaker 18: off the board. If you were to have one of
• 43:23
  Speaker 18: these picks. Either we go and get a guy, or
• 43:26
  Speaker 18: we draft a guy and it becomes another top end
• 43:29
  Speaker 18: talent outside of defensive end. What position would you want
• 43:32
  Speaker 18: it to be?
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, thanks, thanks for the call, Zach. I
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: appreciate that. It sounds like you're from Germany right now.
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: The call, the line was the best. But I heard it.
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: I heard what you're saying, and thank you so much
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: for calling and and like you always do and holding
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: for a little bit. Uh, you know, that's that's a
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: good question. I mean, if if if I could get
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: a player, if I could trade for a player that
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: that I could get for a couple of years, I
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: mean no, not not just a couple of years. Where
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: I can get more than than than a couple of years,
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: then there's five positions of that, you know. I mean,
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: it wouldn't really matter. I mean, pass rusher, like you said,
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: But if you're taking that off the table, if there's
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: a corner that's like, hey, this guy is a great player,
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: let's trade for him. I mean, most most teams aren't
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: willing to let go of that guy. That's that's the problem.
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: But if you know, if you find another Amari Cooper
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: situation where you got a twenty four year old and
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: he's you know, he's he's a great player, but but
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: also this team is ready to move on from him.
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: Then if you find that situation, sure corner would be
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: one left tackle, you know, it would would be another
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: running back. You know that that would be an I mean,
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: I guess there's probably not five, but you know, another
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: defensive tackle, linebacker you could convince me if he was
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: that good. No, I don't know about first round picks though,
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: so you know there's there's I would say the cornerback,
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: maybe maybe a left tackle, I mean, or or a tackle.
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: I'd be okay with that. You know, anything that kind
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: of makes your makes your team better. So but I
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: just don't think that's gonna happen this year. I know
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: that they could do it, but you know, this move
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: was for the future. This is what it what it was,
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: and they're gonna they feel like they're trying to compete
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: and they're gonna they're gonna do it. But you know,
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: if they made a move, it would have to be
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: for a player that you're going to sign long term
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: and keep here. If you're going to trade a first
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: round pick then you got to get something for it.
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: So you've got to be could be a guy in
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: the last year of his deal, but you better they
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: better be a negotiating thing, just like Micah, where it's like,
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: all right, we'll trade for him, but we're gonna negotiate
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: and try to get a get a deal done. All right,
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: let's go to Paul in Wisconsin.
• 45:56
  Speaker 9: Hey, Mark, how are you doing good?
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: How are you?
• 45:59
  Speaker 9: I'm doing all okay. So a couple things about this
• 46:02
  Speaker 9: deal with Micah. I think what you're seeing in the
• 46:05
  Speaker 9: NFL is a little bit of a shift away from
• 46:08
  Speaker 9: the passing and more to the running game, right right,
• 46:11
  Speaker 9: And Micah that's not necessarily his strength. Having said that,
• 46:18
  Speaker 9: they do, as you have said, give up a generational
• 46:21
  Speaker 9: talent and a guy who just can in an instant
• 46:24
  Speaker 9: change a game. So that's the tough part of this.
• 46:27
  Speaker 9: But the other part of the NFL I think that
• 46:30
  Speaker 9: needs to be really thought about here is the teams
• 46:34
  Speaker 9: that are successful are the teams that stay focused.
• 46:38
  Speaker 13: Right.
• 46:39
  Speaker 9: And Micah has you know, his podcast. He's not afraid
• 46:43
  Speaker 9: to get on social media and talk about, you know,
• 46:47
  Speaker 9: his little spat with d Law, which I find so ironic.
• 46:51
  Speaker 9: Now right, you know that, And that's that's all distractions.
• 46:57
  Speaker 9: And I think it also has the negative effect of
• 47:02
  Speaker 9: really affecting a locker room. Right, we don't that's the
• 47:06
  Speaker 9: stuff we don't see. We don't see the inner workings
• 47:09
  Speaker 9: of the locker room. And I think that's for those
• 47:12
  Speaker 9: are the intangibles that I think really will in the
• 47:17
  Speaker 9: long run. I think hurt Micah more than anybody. And frankly,
• 47:21
  Speaker 9: the packers are in that kind of wind now, Bode.
• 47:25
  Speaker 9: I gotta believe after this move, there's a ton of
• 47:29
  Speaker 9: pressure on Jordan love Guda Koun, you know, to get
• 47:34
  Speaker 9: over the hump, much more than the cowboys. So this
• 47:38
  Speaker 9: isn't this isn't the herschel Walker thing, but it's it's
• 47:41
  Speaker 9: a and I wish they would have gotten more. But
• 47:45
  Speaker 9: in the NFL, I think you just can't have all
• 47:49
  Speaker 9: the distractions. And I just don't know where Michael was
• 47:52
  Speaker 9: coming from. Neck It's like, on the one hand, last
• 47:54
  Speaker 9: year he's talking about I can play the least, you know.
• 47:57
  Speaker 9: I remember Jesse Howley saying I'm hanging with the like no, no, no, no, Son,
• 48:01
  Speaker 9: you don't do that. You don't make that public. And
• 48:04
  Speaker 9: he has this weird way of just making these weird
• 48:07
  Speaker 9: statements that kind of blows everybody's mind. And then I
• 48:10
  Speaker 9: think the ultimate disrespect was what he did at the game.
• 48:14
  Speaker 9: I mean, Jerry, Jerry Eyes pays this player. Even DLAs
• 48:17
  Speaker 9: said that, right he, you know he they eventually get
• 48:21
  Speaker 9: paid by Jerry.
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: All right, thank you, thank you, Paul. I appreciate it.
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: We are pushed up against it right now. Thank you.
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: And I know you're there in Wisconsin, so you're going
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: to be dealing with that. But We're gonna take a
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: break real quick and I'll come back and get one more.

• 49:43
  Speaker 1: Just got time for one more call. I don't apologize
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: to Paul in Wisconsin. I had some great points and
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: I just we had to kind of keep it moving.
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: You're right about a lot of the things that you said.
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: There one more caller here. We're going to Casey in Denver.
• 49:55
  Speaker 16: Casey, how's it going?
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: You're like half of the AFC West right there, Casey?
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: What's that man?
• 50:03
  Speaker 16: Quick question? So I know Jerry likes to use the
• 50:07
  Speaker 16: superstars and their contracts in the offseason to keep the
• 50:10
  Speaker 16: Cowboys being talked about. Okay, and it seems like it's
• 50:15
  Speaker 16: not paying off. I mean, besides getting the Cowboys talked about.
• 50:19
  Speaker 16: But the contracts seems to kind of bite him in
• 50:21
  Speaker 16: the end, and kind of it seems like he stumbled
• 50:24
  Speaker 16: this one here at the end as well. Do you
• 50:26
  Speaker 16: think he's gonna try and change up a little bit
• 50:29
  Speaker 16: and try to get these contracts done sooner to help
• 50:32
  Speaker 16: with salary cap and maybe not get the player so
• 50:36
  Speaker 16: upset with him. I'll hang up and listen.
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: Okay, thank you. First of all, I mean, I think
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys do. They would love to assign players early.
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: The problem is is that, I mean, in this particular case,
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: just remember the Cowboys offered Micah Parsons the best contract
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: in the history of a non quarterback. That's what they want.
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: They want to that That wasn't good enough for Mike
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: and his agent. They didn't want to just be a
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: little bit more. They wanted to be a lot more.
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: They wanted the next couple guys to be like, WHOA,
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: I don't know if we can get to that. That's
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: what he wanted here Green Bay, wherever didn't matter. Priority
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: number one was that, not let's build this thing. I'm
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: gonna tell you this real quick. I have a time
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: for a quick story. Against New England his rookie year.
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: The Cowboys win a game in the rain, CD touchdown
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: and overtime to win is a great game. Afterwards, interviewing
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: him in the locker room, you would have thought a
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: family member passed away. He was so upset, so distraught.
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: Even admitted that he holds himself to a higher standard
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: and he didn't get a sack, so therefore he's not
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: happy yet. I have seen him pretty bouncy, pretty okay
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: after two sacks, three sack game, they didn't win. I'm
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: just saying, that's what it is, okay. So this is
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: the priority for him. Everyone's got priorities. Everyone gets motive
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: their own thing. You're talking about a guy that wants sacks.
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: He wants to make the stats because that's what gives
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: you money, and that's what he was looking for. He
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: wanted that more than anything else, and he was willing
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: to kind of act his own certain way in the
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: locker room or whatever to get there. Guys, great great show.
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: I love getting thirteen calls. Everyone had stuff to say.
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: I appreciate all you guys for calling all the ones
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: that didn't make it in but you know, they were
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: in and out. They could Everybody could talk for forty
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: five minutes on their own on a topic like this,
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: And we're gonna be able to talk about it some
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: Not on Monday, it's Labor Day. We'll talk Tuesday, so
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: it's not gonna be a whole lot of time to
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: talk about it. We'll eventually talk about that Philadelphia team
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: that we play on Thursday. For Chris Beym I'm Nick Eatman.
