  Speaker 5: twenty five. Darren Woodson once again, let's do this again?
• 1:05
  Speaker 5: Would he need to get him on the show? And
• 1:08
  Speaker 5: it's funny. I texted him the other day. I said, Hey,
• 1:11
  Speaker 5: when do you get, you know, come on the show again.
• 1:13
  Speaker 5: He just responded with something completely different than that. I'm like, okay, funny,
• 1:19
  Speaker 5: huh what about being on the show again? Not responding,
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: I don't know. But we get closer to the Hall
• 1:25
  Speaker 5: of Fame announcement. Maybe this is the year. It's got
• 1:28
  Speaker 5: to be long overdue, but doesn't really matter. When you
• 1:31
  Speaker 5: get in ask Drew Pearson that you get in, you
• 1:33
  Speaker 5: get in. No one cares about how long it's been. Well,
• 1:37
  Speaker 5: I take you know what. To take that back, there's
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: some there's some people that I think that they get
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: waited way too long and then and then they're not
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: in the right frame of mind, or some people aren't
• 1:48
  Speaker 5: even alive to experience it. So I do wish they
• 1:52
  Speaker 5: would get these guys in a little earlier. Hopefully that's
• 1:54
  Speaker 5: the case with Darren Woodson. Eight eight eight eight five
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: five two two nine seven is the number to call.
• 1:59
  Speaker 5: You can text the show one seven two nine zero
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: three two nine eight. Got a couple of callers already
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: on the line. Let's get after it. Gary in New
• 2:06
  Speaker 5: Mexico start us off.
• 2:09
  Speaker 6: Hey, Nick, good morning from the high mountains of southern
• 2:11
  Speaker 6: New Mexico. Right, okay, I got a trivia question since
• 2:16
  Speaker 6: it's Washington week, all right, then then a comment on
• 2:19
  Speaker 6: this year's team. Okay, so Cowboys are playing at Washington
• 2:23
  Speaker 6: this week. Of the Cowboy quarterbacks with at least three starts,
• 2:28
  Speaker 6: which one has the best overall record at Washington?
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: Gotta have three starts?
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: Well yeah, oh man, I guess it wouldn't it wouldn't
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: be Dak. I mean, that's that that seems like logical.
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: But because he's played really well there, he got his
• 2:48
  Speaker 5: first win there. Yeah, but it's not it's not Dak.
• 2:52
  Speaker 6: It is. It's a tie technically.
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: Okay, hello on, hold on? Who else?
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: And so you said you said winning percentage or is
• 2:59
  Speaker 5: it like.
• 3:00
  Speaker 6: Just overall winning record. I guess we could call it percentage.
• 3:03
  Speaker 6: But but Dak is tied with one other Cowboy quarterback
• 3:06
  Speaker 6: as the most successful playing at Washington with a minimum
• 3:09
  Speaker 6: of three So Quincy Carter was two and zero. We're
• 3:12
  Speaker 6: not counting guys with less than three starts. We're talking
• 3:15
  Speaker 6: established cowboy.
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: Quarterbacks on that Quincy Carter. That's right. Yeah, man, yeah,
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: I would say, I don't know. It's not day Danny White.
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: Is it Danny White? Okay? Yeah, I mean.
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: He won those two games. I can't remember some of
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: the others eighty one.
• 3:35
  Speaker 6: Yeah, oh yeah, Danny White. And this is called Danny
• 3:37
  Speaker 6: White's one of my favorite players. Danny White was five
• 3:40
  Speaker 6: and one lifetime at RFK in the regular season, and
• 3:44
  Speaker 6: then he lost that NFC championship game in nineteen eighty two.
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: But he didn't finish that game. He was knocked out
• 3:50
  Speaker 6: in the second quarter. And I still contend I will
• 3:53
  Speaker 6: go to my grave saying if Danny White had not
• 3:55
  Speaker 6: gotten hurt in that game, he would have brought Dallas
• 3:57
  Speaker 6: back and they won it. That's a bar That's a
• 4:00
  Speaker 6: barroom discussion for another time.
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: I got a trivia question for you now, Okay, go
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: in that eighty two championship game at Washington.
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: Yes, yes, Danny White got hurt. Who was the last
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: player to take a snap in that game?
• 4:14
  Speaker 6: Drew Pearson?
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: There you go. You know your stuff.
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: I know my stuff now. I can tell you I
• 4:18
  Speaker 6: was in the fifth grade. That's the last time I
• 4:21
  Speaker 6: cried after a loss. And then my granddad just reamed
• 4:24
  Speaker 6: me and told me to grow up. But everybody, remember,
• 4:27
  Speaker 6: everybody left left the field and then again, and they
• 4:30
  Speaker 6: had to go in and get Drew Pearson and bring
• 4:32
  Speaker 6: him back out. And he took the ceremonial last step.
• 4:35
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 4:35
  Speaker 6: That was I'll never forget it. Okay. So do you
• 4:38
  Speaker 6: know who has the worst record ever for a cowboy
• 4:40
  Speaker 6: quarterback at Washington.
• 4:44
  Speaker 8: De Polure Roger Staubach.
• 4:46
  Speaker 6: Okay, greatest, the greatest football player in the history of
• 4:50
  Speaker 6: the world. Whose picture, whose poster still hangs proudly above
• 4:53
  Speaker 6: my desk. He was three and six lifetime at RFK. Yeah,
• 4:57
  Speaker 6: so anyway, good old days. I wish it were like that,
• 5:01
  Speaker 6: but unfortunately it's not. So let's talk about this year's
• 5:04
  Speaker 6: team real quick. When they took that field gold off
• 5:08
  Speaker 6: the board in the third quarter after Aubrey made that
• 5:11
  Speaker 6: sixty four yard kick, I agreed with the decision. You
• 5:14
  Speaker 6: have to do that, that's the right thing to do.
• 5:16
  Speaker 6: You got a fifteen yard penalty, you take the three off,
• 5:19
  Speaker 6: you get the first down, you go for a touchdown.
• 5:21
  Speaker 6: Had no problem with.
• 5:22
  Speaker 9: The decision that I knew when it happened that.
• 5:26
  Speaker 6: They were not going to get those points back. I
• 5:29
  Speaker 6: just knew it because that's just the way this season
• 5:31
  Speaker 6: has gone. And you made a comment a couple of
• 5:34
  Speaker 6: weeks ago which I totally agreed with and which we're
• 5:37
  Speaker 6: seeing play out. You know, we talked about not quitting,
• 5:40
  Speaker 6: and it's one thing to not quit when the lights
• 5:42
  Speaker 6: are on during the game. It's another thing to not
• 5:45
  Speaker 6: quit during the week. And we've heard over and over
• 5:49
  Speaker 6: from coach McCarthy and from Dak Prescott they need to
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: practice better. They need to practice better, and then you
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: hear these stories about Ezekiel Elliott, who was brought in
• 5:58
  Speaker 6: to be a leader, and you hear stories about him
• 6:01
  Speaker 6: missing practice and missing meetings, being late, and then you
• 6:05
  Speaker 6: see that Cooper Rush interception that he threw early in
• 6:08
  Speaker 6: the game where it looked like him and ceedee lamb.
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: We're just not on the same page exactly. That's junior
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: high stuff. That's a lack of preparation. And I don't
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: know if you blame the coaches, if you blame the players,
• 6:18
  Speaker 6: there's blamed to go all over the place. But this
• 6:22
  Speaker 6: is just not a very good team. I like watching
• 6:26
  Speaker 6: some of the younger players and see what they can do.
• 6:28
  Speaker 6: I like Brandon span Ford, saw some of the stuff
• 6:30
  Speaker 6: he did, you know, little things like that. See what
• 6:32
  Speaker 6: we can build on for the future. But this is
• 6:35
  Speaker 6: starting to nick. I've seen a lot of cowboy football
• 6:38
  Speaker 6: in my life, and this is starting to remind me.
• 6:40
  Speaker 6: This looks a lot like nineteen eighty eight. I mean,
• 6:43
  Speaker 6: this is a bad football team, but we enjoy what
• 6:46
  Speaker 6: we can and next year can always be better. But
• 6:49
  Speaker 6: thanks for taking my.
• 6:50
  Speaker 5: Call, all right, thank you well. I like how you
• 6:54
  Speaker 5: said eighty eight and not eighty nine because eighty nine.
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: You know, they only had the one win eighty eight,
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: I think they had. They had three wins, and I
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: think they were maybe two and two, two and three.
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: It was you know, they were they were okay at
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: the first and then they maybe they lost like eight
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: or nine ten in a row. But they did win
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: at Washington and it was Tom Landry's last win, So
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: who knows. That's one thing about this rivalry. It doesn't
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: matter about the records. You say that all the time.
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: I'll throw out the records. Really that is the case.
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: Just go back in history. We can talk about that
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: later on. But the history suggests that doesn't matter who's winning,
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: who's losing. This game is usually you know, pretty close
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: and and and the underdog can win no matter where
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: they are because there's gonna be a lot of Cowboy
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: fans there regardless. All right, let's go to Brian in
• 7:42
  Speaker 5: Kansas City.
• 7:44
  Speaker 8: Good morning, sir. Are you I'm doing great? Little cold
• 7:48
  Speaker 8: up here, so just give you the weather update, start
• 7:50
  Speaker 8: that off right away. So, but moving on to Washington week.
• 7:56
  Speaker 8: You know, I this past week, the one thing that
• 8:00
  Speaker 8: I took away at this point in the season, I'm
• 8:03
  Speaker 8: really just watching plays, right like I'm I'm celebrating a
• 8:06
  Speaker 8: play because there's not allowed to celebrate. The week before,
• 8:10
  Speaker 8: it was the the interception in the end zone by Diggs.
• 8:14
  Speaker 8: This week it was Cavante Turpin. You know, the sixty
• 8:17
  Speaker 8: four yard catch and run was absolutely the right way
• 8:21
  Speaker 8: to use him. Yeah, and I'd been so frustrated with
• 8:25
  Speaker 8: them throwing the ball to him like he was a
• 8:26
  Speaker 8: possession receiver trying to trying to make a contested catch.
• 8:33
  Speaker 8: That's not who he is. Yeah, we need him in
• 8:35
  Speaker 8: that in you know, get him on those in the
• 8:40
  Speaker 8: quick outs and anything where he can use that quick
• 8:44
  Speaker 8: you know, that quick twitch speed that he's got, and
• 8:47
  Speaker 8: then you know, anything at twenty two miles an hour,
• 8:50
  Speaker 8: probably nobody, nobody's going to catch him, right, I mean
• 8:53
  Speaker 8: that's so.
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: I mean think about that really, like like you he
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: would get arrested in a school zone for that, you know,
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: And I drive into school though every single morning, and
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: like twenty you know, I'm right there at twenty twenty miles.
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: It's just it's amazing when you think about it, how
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: how fast he is really running. And he even said
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: I didn't I didn't even think that was that fast.
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: Wait till I get really good going, which yes, and
• 9:19
  Speaker 5: we're all like, yes, I wait for that. We're wait,
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: We've been waiting for that to you to really get
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: get open and get in the clear. So he's fun
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: to watch. He's a fun player to watch. They've got
• 9:29
  Speaker 5: to continue to figure out ways to use him like that.
• 9:32
  Speaker 8: Oh absolutely, yeah, that was That was a great play.
• 9:35
  Speaker 8: And that's just that's just the way. You know, I'll
• 9:37
  Speaker 8: watch the rest of the season that way. I'm looking
• 9:40
  Speaker 8: for something to celebrate, and that was it that they
• 9:44
  Speaker 8: you know, Okay, that's the way you use turf And
• 9:46
  Speaker 8: while he really does have it if you use him
• 9:49
  Speaker 8: the right way.
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 9:51
  Speaker 8: The other thing, you know, people have been talking about,
• 9:53
  Speaker 8: you know, people have been kind of looking forward to
• 9:55
  Speaker 8: next year or some and so I looked at it
• 9:58
  Speaker 8: over the cap and just to see, like, what can
• 10:02
  Speaker 8: we do to help ourselves, you know, if we want
• 10:05
  Speaker 8: to push some of these young players into positions to
• 10:08
  Speaker 8: see what we have, what can we do and there
• 10:12
  Speaker 8: are some things we can do. I think it starts,
• 10:15
  Speaker 8: it begins and ends though with the offensive line. We've
• 10:22
  Speaker 8: got to decide if Awesome Richards is a starting tackle
• 10:26
  Speaker 8: in this league. Along with we We certainly hope Guidon is.
• 10:30
  Speaker 8: He's a first round pick, right right, So but if
• 10:35
  Speaker 8: those two guys are it turns out that this is
• 10:38
  Speaker 8: the year they can get out of Steels deal, it
• 10:42
  Speaker 8: would say you've got to do it as a post
• 10:44
  Speaker 8: June first but it would save fourteen million dollars. And
• 10:49
  Speaker 8: when I looked around the team, there are you could
• 10:51
  Speaker 8: get to almost thirty million if some of the other
• 10:57
  Speaker 8: young players pan out. And I will go through the
• 11:00
  Speaker 8: whole list. It's a long list. The biggest The biggest
• 11:03
  Speaker 8: part though, is steel. So the offensive line plays a
• 11:06
  Speaker 8: key role. Do we have you know, if we're looking
• 11:10
  Speaker 8: at awesome Richards, TJ. Bass, I just forgot our center's name.
• 11:16
  Speaker 8: What's our rookie center's name, Babe Pebe Smith? Right, Ben Dighten,
• 11:21
  Speaker 8: that's you know. I'd love to see that combination on
• 11:24
  Speaker 8: the field and see what we have. You know that
• 11:27
  Speaker 8: that would be my thing and see you know ken
• 11:30
  Speaker 8: they play together and see that this year. Yeah, anyway,
• 11:34
  Speaker 8: my cowboy this day. I don't know if you have
• 11:37
  Speaker 8: a story about him. I'm ashamed of myself as the
• 11:40
  Speaker 8: Geritol generation. I never asked this, but do you have
• 11:42
  Speaker 8: a story about Bob Lilly, all.
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: Right, thank you, thanks for the call.
• 11:47
  Speaker 5: I I don't I don't know if I've ever met him, honestly,
• 11:54
  Speaker 5: and I'm kind of embarrassed by that.
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: I've been here twenty five years.
• 11:58
  Speaker 5: There's been a lot, I mean, he's around him, He's
• 11:59
  Speaker 5: done some things, I mean on the field and stuff
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: like that.
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: I might be intimidated by by just meeting him.
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: We've done some interviews with him, our our TV broadcast
• 12:11
  Speaker 5: team has done that, but I wasn't a part of that,
• 12:14
  Speaker 5: and I've never I've never met him. I don't think
• 12:16
  Speaker 5: i've ever met him, and I think I would remember
• 12:18
  Speaker 5: it if I have. The only thing that that I
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: think is really really cool is the only story I have. Again,
• 12:23
  Speaker 5: I've never met him. But right outside here, they have
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: a part of the tours, you know, which you know
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: can be a distraction if you let them. But the
• 12:32
  Speaker 5: tours around here have the mannequins all the different uniforms.
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: Is like eight different mannequins that are sitting up here
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: and uh, and one of them has got the jersey
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: of the old you know shows like the old uniforms
• 12:46
  Speaker 5: throughout the years, and one of them's got is seventy four,
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: and it's got his jersey, and it's got his actual cleats,
• 12:53
  Speaker 5: like the cleats that he wore in games he's donated
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: to to the you know, the Cowboys and so on.
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: The mannequin they actually the different shoes, but these are
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: cleats that he wore in the game, So I think
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: that's kind of cool. ME go back to the part
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: about Terence Steel. And again, when you're looking at salary cap,
• 13:12
  Speaker 5: I don't want to float this number out there. When
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: you're looking at the cap.
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: It can be.
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: I mean, it can be confusing. I mean, of course
• 13:19
  Speaker 5: it's not supposed to be something easy to read when
• 13:24
  Speaker 5: I'm looking at what. You know, I thought that sounded odd.
• 13:27
  Speaker 5: Terrence Steele, you can save thirteen million dollars, Brian, I
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: don't think that's the case. What I think what you're
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: seeing is is his base salary in twenty twenty five
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: is thirteen point two million. You cut him, you would
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: save that. Now you still get all those pro rated
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: signing bonus because his country goes all the way to
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: twenty twenty eight. So his cap number next year would
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: be eighteen million. If you cut him, his cap number
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: would be you would save four million, four point six
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: off the cap because he's going to count eighteen of
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: he's being on the team, and if you cut him,
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: you cut that salary out thirteen point two whatever it
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: ends up being four point six. If you cut him
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: this year pre June one, I guess if you did
• 14:16
  Speaker 5: it post June one, you'd save Yeah, you could save
• 14:22
  Speaker 5: you could save about the well, he could save about
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: thir thirteen million if you cut him. Yeah, you could
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: save thirteen million there, But then you'd have to get
• 14:29
  Speaker 5: to seven the next year. I don't think they would
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: want to do that, So I think you keep them.
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: I think you keep them on the team. Actually probably
• 14:37
  Speaker 5: makes more sense to do that. But who knows, he
• 14:40
  Speaker 5: could be He could be a guy, But you don't
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: have a You don't the thing about offensive lineman. You've
• 14:45
  Speaker 5: got to you're trying to develop them. They don't want
• 14:48
  Speaker 5: to let these guys go. So as much as you think,
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: I mean think about Josh Balden, will let's go, I
• 14:54
  Speaker 5: mean they still keep them because they you don't want to.
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: You know, you got these young linement you've developed. I
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: think they're the one to continue to keep him. I
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: don't see him being let go at all Carolina and
• 15:07
  Speaker 5: Carolina is our next caller.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: What's going on there? Man, I've been I've been a
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: little distance from the show man. I didn't want to
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: come spread by bad gju. I've been getting tired of
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: getting talk bad about wearing my Cowboys jersey. I was
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: at the truck stop this morning, had on the Cowboys hiddy.
• 15:29
  Speaker 10: Oh take that off off something.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: Uh, it's just you know, it's bad as where you go.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, bad where you go.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: But anyways, man one I called to say, I just
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: don't understand why we're not using us vun in the
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: correct way. Like you bring him out there, give him
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: one snap running.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: Straight through the middle.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Like why why not get him in space? Why
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: not give him the ball more than five times? Even
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: with we go get him to him ten times. I
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: don't understand. Like you said in the beginning of last
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: but I think Monday fifty five passes is crazy. I
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: mean that's just crazy.
• 16:09
  Speaker 5: I mean, do you, let's be honest here, do you
• 16:12
  Speaker 5: think Duce Vaughan is going to do anything in the
• 16:14
  Speaker 5: in the open field?
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: I mean we've seen.
• 16:18
  Speaker 11: Enough.
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 16:20
  Speaker 5: I mean, like Rico, same thing. Rico looks good at
• 16:23
  Speaker 5: some times, but then he'll he'll drop a pass or
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: he'll fumble here. I mean, like, I think these are
• 16:29
  Speaker 5: good players. I don't think they're special. And again, you
• 16:34
  Speaker 5: can make enough time to you know what, I'll I'll
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: agree with you on that.
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: I'll agree with you.
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: But I kind of feel like we've seen him. But
• 16:44
  Speaker 5: if if if y'all don't think so, and you know what,
• 16:48
  Speaker 5: that maybe not maybe maybe he needs a little bit
• 16:51
  Speaker 5: more time. And again, you can't it can't hurt with Rico.
• 16:56
  Speaker 5: I think we kind of know what he is. I
• 16:57
  Speaker 5: think he's a good, solid player. Yeah, but I mean
• 17:01
  Speaker 5: he's not anybody you would not draft a running back
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: for because you have and I'm not saying that you're
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: saying that either. I just feel like, you know, part
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: of the reasons these guys aren't getting more carries, It's like,
• 17:13
  Speaker 5: why doesn't he get more carries, It's because they're not
• 17:16
  Speaker 5: producing what the first carries that they have.
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: That's what happens. And it's not always his fault.
• 17:22
  Speaker 5: But on first down, if you get one yard on
• 17:24
  Speaker 5: first down and it's second to nine, you're probably not
• 17:26
  Speaker 5: getting the ball again because that's now if you get
• 17:30
  Speaker 5: five yards. You're getting it again, and you get it again,
• 17:32
  Speaker 5: and we keep moving the sticks and guess what, you're
• 17:34
  Speaker 5: getting more carries. But that's that's the problem of why
• 17:37
  Speaker 5: these guys aren't getting more carries is because they're not
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: staying on the field long enough to get more carries.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: You know what what, I'll hit you on the contrary
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: of that. Okay, you can't play everybody the same way.
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: It's like this, I'm going to go to play calling,
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: like why would you run He's not the biggest guy
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: in the world. Sure, and he's a switchy, fast guy,
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: So why would you sit him script the middle? Like
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: maybe a pitch to the left, a pitch to a right,
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: maybe a stream you know. Like, I just I was
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: excused when I seen him coming. I got excited because
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: I got a jersey, I'll tell you that. And then
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: he got one plate I assume no more.
• 18:16
  Speaker 5: I was like, so, so your opinion is based off
• 18:19
  Speaker 5: justifying the jersey that you bought, that's what it is.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: No, No, it's based off of what I see him
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: doing college. Man. It was I mean, I know he's
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: getting down the field. Man, I was so excited when
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: we drafted. I'm like, oh, this guy is gonna bring
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: us that first. Yeah, but it is like it's like
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: you're running him like a power bag. If you asked me,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: like got his game now?
• 18:42
  Speaker 5: And I understand that that for sure, that that's not
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: his game. I do think though, you can't have these
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: running backs like just being well, Zeke's on the field,
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: so it must be past past protection and now do
• 18:54
  Speaker 5: so on the field. So now it's going to be
• 18:55
  Speaker 5: something to the outside like running backs. And I've said
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: this before. Running backs have to do everything. You have
• 19:00
  Speaker 5: to be able to run it here, so you can,
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: you know, you can kind of keep everybody honest of
• 19:05
  Speaker 5: what you're doing, even though that's not his strength. Even
• 19:08
  Speaker 5: Tony Pollard, you know he'd run it up the middle,
• 19:10
  Speaker 5: even though that's not his best run. But you know
• 19:13
  Speaker 5: he could run to the outside as well. So Deuce
• 19:15
  Speaker 5: has got to be able to do all of it.
• 19:17
  Speaker 5: But I agree with you, I don't know if we're
• 19:18
  Speaker 5: even seeing all of it. We're just seeing the part
• 19:21
  Speaker 5: that's not his game. So you have a you have
• 19:23
  Speaker 5: a point there.
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: I get that.
• 19:25
  Speaker 5: I just don't think these running backs are doing enough
• 19:27
  Speaker 5: to extend the drives.
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: And it's not just their fault. It's the line, it's
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: the blocking.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: You're right, that's right.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: And I'm not gonna hold you today too much home today,
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: but I do you know, I'm trying to come a
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: part of storylines. I gotta give you my favorite wrestler
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: and my favorite all time Cowboys favorite wrestler. May you
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: probably never hit his Ravens studio. He was my favorite
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: and favorite all time Cowboy CEO. All right, I leave
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: it with that.
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: You have a good one.
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: I'll call it at least one more time week.
• 20:00
  Speaker 5: All right, thanks, Carolina and Carolina. T O is his
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: favorite wrestler, I mean, sorry favorite. He could probably wrestle. Uh,
• 20:08
  Speaker 5: I know he's I know you can asking former Eagle.
• 20:10
  Speaker 5: He can be a boxer, Raymisterio and t O. Okay, interesting,
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: Let's go to Jeremy in Washington, d C.
• 20:23
  Speaker 9: There, Yo, Nick, what's up man?
• 20:24
  Speaker 4: What's up?
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: Man?
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: Are you going to the game?
• 20:28
  Speaker 9: No, I'm not going to the game. I don't have
• 20:31
  Speaker 9: tickets for the game, but if I did, I would
• 20:34
  Speaker 9: I wouldn't. I don't really care what the record is, man.
• 20:37
  Speaker 9: I like looking at my change.
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: Okay, okay, okay.
• 20:39
  Speaker 5: The second question, if the Cowboys win this week. Are
• 20:43
  Speaker 5: you going to be talking a lot of crap to
• 20:46
  Speaker 5: people around you?
• 20:49
  Speaker 9: I mean, if they if they bring it to me, yeah, man,
• 20:51
  Speaker 9: because all I'm gonna say to him if we sorry
• 20:53
  Speaker 9: would do that? Make y'all?
• 20:59
  Speaker 6: He beat them?
• 21:00
  Speaker 5: Hey, and Washington's been able to do that to the
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: Cowboys again. I mean this rothery, man, I've seen the
• 21:06
  Speaker 5: Cowboys go twelve and four win the Super Bowl nineteen
• 21:09
  Speaker 5: ninety five, twelve and four lost two games to a
• 21:13
  Speaker 5: four and twelve Washington team. Tell me this robbery doesn't
• 21:16
  Speaker 5: matter like it happens, and it's happened recently too, like
• 21:21
  Speaker 5: in recent years and things like that.
• 21:22
  Speaker 4: So yeah, with.
• 21:23
  Speaker 9: The Phanatanams catching all it exactly.
• 21:26
  Speaker 5: I mean when the Cowboys were in twenty fifteen, I
• 21:29
  Speaker 5: think the Cowboys were what four and twelve that year
• 21:33
  Speaker 5: one at Washington. So I mean, you know, it happens.
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: Let's see if it happens this year.
• 21:40
  Speaker 9: We gotta win this for what's your boy? By other man?
• 21:44
  Speaker 9: They called from DC, but nain coach Tavaron or.
• 21:47
  Speaker 6: Something like that.
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, he.
• 21:50
  Speaker 9: Always called up there. He was the one that called.
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: Last time.
• 21:52
  Speaker 9: It was very upset man, because we're not winning it
• 21:55
  Speaker 9: he's spending his money on tickets and stuff like that.
• 21:59
  Speaker 9: But I'm calling because, man, I wanted to call in
• 22:02
  Speaker 9: last week, but the job kept me busy. But I
• 22:04
  Speaker 9: just want to see more of this mingo kid man like.
• 22:08
  Speaker 9: I think he's going to be a great addition to
• 22:10
  Speaker 9: the team. And the only really problem that I really
• 22:13
  Speaker 9: had with the trade was that I wish Jerry would
• 22:16
  Speaker 9: have did it were like the defensive tackle, you know
• 22:19
  Speaker 9: what I'm saying, and help more in some younger defensive
• 22:22
  Speaker 9: tackle debt instead of, you know, keep depending on the
• 22:25
  Speaker 9: older veteran guys. That's all I really got to say, man.
• 22:29
  Speaker 9: Other than that, you guys, enjoy your holidays man, and
• 22:32
  Speaker 9: try not to hurt nobody.
• 22:33
  Speaker 5: All right, Nick, appreciate it, Thanks for the call. You know,
• 22:37
  Speaker 5: I'll say this about that your point about defensive tackle help.
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: It's really not much different than the offensive lineman. What
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: I said is find a team that's really you know,
• 22:47
  Speaker 5: like getting rid of the young linemen. It just doesn't
• 22:51
  Speaker 5: happen a lot. I mean, you'll see this team, I
• 22:54
  Speaker 5: mean it takes a while too. I mean, they're not
• 22:56
  Speaker 5: going to get rid of some of these young guys.
• 22:58
  Speaker 5: So if there's somebody that you like that the young
• 23:01
  Speaker 5: defensive lineman, they're probably gonna try to keep him. You know,
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: the Cowboys try to get cute and get rid of
• 23:07
  Speaker 5: John Ridgeway, and you know they they cut him in
• 23:12
  Speaker 5: the middle of the week or weekend or whatever, hoping
• 23:14
  Speaker 5: to get him on the practice squad and didn't happen.
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: Washington claimed him, and they've never got him back. And
• 23:19
  Speaker 5: they've actually tried. They tried to make a trade to
• 23:20
  Speaker 5: get him back this year. He ended up going to
• 23:22
  Speaker 5: the Saints, I believe. But you know, just young linemen,
• 23:26
  Speaker 5: if they show something offense or defense, they're they're usually
• 23:30
  Speaker 5: you know, they're they're coveted, and so it's hard to
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: do that.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: As for Mingo, you know, he got open a little
• 23:36
  Speaker 5: bit and he's I saw one run for sure where
• 23:42
  Speaker 5: he got to the outside where he was he was
• 23:44
  Speaker 5: like asked to cut back and block, and he did
• 23:48
  Speaker 5: that pretty well. He's a big guy, so he's gonna
• 23:51
  Speaker 5: have to be you know, your your best blocker or
• 23:54
  Speaker 5: a good blocker on the outside. You're not trading fourth
• 23:57
  Speaker 5: round picks for blocking receivers. I understand that, but you've
• 24:00
  Speaker 5: got to be able to get open, make plays. You
• 24:02
  Speaker 5: got to open a little bit. There was a pass
• 24:04
  Speaker 5: that you know, I don't I don't know if if
• 24:07
  Speaker 5: a gecko would have caught that one. It was down
• 24:09
  Speaker 5: on the ground down there, it was. It was tough.
• 24:11
  Speaker 5: But he's got to he's got to be able.
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 24:13
  Speaker 5: They got to get the ball up to him. He'll
• 24:15
  Speaker 5: get opportunities. So there's no doubt about it. I'm anxious
• 24:17
  Speaker 5: to see him play, of course, and I was one
• 24:18
  Speaker 5: that didn't hate the trade, but he's got to get
• 24:21
  Speaker 5: the ball. He's got to, you know, do something. If
• 24:23
  Speaker 5: he can do anything this year to give him a
• 24:24
  Speaker 5: head start, then I think, you know, you you can
• 24:27
  Speaker 5: justify the trade a little bit just by Hey, you're
• 24:30
  Speaker 5: getting a guy for a fourth round pick that's already
• 24:32
  Speaker 5: played in the league a couple of years. He's already
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: played in this system. I don't know what the system
• 24:37
  Speaker 5: is gonna look like next year, but you know what
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: I'm saying.
• 24:40
  Speaker 4: Let's gonna break.

• 26:55
  Speaker 5: She's a fan of the year. We'd like to get
• 26:57
  Speaker 5: her on the storyline. A and A eight five five
• 27:00
  Speaker 5: two two nine seven is the number to call. I
• 27:03
  Speaker 5: want to say. On the last segment there, Brian, you
• 27:07
  Speaker 5: were right. I was looking at this thing differently. You
• 27:10
  Speaker 5: were right when you said that they would save They
• 27:12
  Speaker 5: would save about fourteen million on the cap for a
• 27:15
  Speaker 5: post June one. As I was looking it up, I
• 27:16
  Speaker 5: remember that you said it was a post June one.
• 27:19
  Speaker 5: You do have to split that up over two years,
• 27:22
  Speaker 5: and they're gonna have to take a somewhat of a
• 27:24
  Speaker 5: hit for two years, but it would it would be
• 27:27
  Speaker 5: worth it because you could save some money there. If
• 27:29
  Speaker 5: you want to do that again, you get two of
• 27:31
  Speaker 5: those post June one cuts per year, so you have
• 27:34
  Speaker 5: to decide which one you want to do if you
• 27:37
  Speaker 5: want to do it at all. And again, teams don't
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: like to get rid of lineman. So you get a big,
• 27:43
  Speaker 5: strong offensive lineman that's young like that, you're probably gonna
• 27:46
  Speaker 5: get a new offensive line coach or new system if
• 27:48
  Speaker 5: you bring the guys in and don't be surprised for
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: someone to look and go, I want that guy. I'll
• 27:54
  Speaker 5: tell it once. I'll tell the story one hundred times.
• 27:57
  Speaker 5: One of my favorite stories of all time work here
• 28:01
  Speaker 5: was after twenty two thousand and two, we thought flows
• 28:06
  Speaker 5: out Adams was Terrence Steele. That's that's what we thought.
• 28:09
  Speaker 5: It flows out Adams. But he was a second round pick,
• 28:12
  Speaker 5: hadn't worked out. Four years of this, penalties, fall starts
• 28:17
  Speaker 5: all the time. Just you know his body language, he
• 28:21
  Speaker 5: was this guy guidedn't say a lot. I'm not saying
• 28:23
  Speaker 5: Terrence steels that way, but I'm just saying it was like,
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: all right, it's been four years, is what you know?
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: This isn't working out or whatever.
• 28:30
  Speaker 5: Bill Parcells comes in for reverse press conference, talks about
• 28:33
  Speaker 5: what he's got to do differently, this, this, and this,
• 28:34
  Speaker 5: and he said, well, first thing we got to do
• 28:36
  Speaker 5: is resign, flows out atoms and everybody was shocked, like
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: really you want to re sin?
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: Bill? Hold up? Now, he's like you kidding me. Look
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: at him.
• 28:44
  Speaker 5: He's super tall, big strong left tackle. Yeah, we got
• 28:49
  Speaker 5: to get him resigned. Okay, you know it was kind
• 28:52
  Speaker 5: of it was odd that he would do that. Well,
• 28:54
  Speaker 5: you know, he only made five Pro Bowls in his
• 28:56
  Speaker 5: next six years, and only the reason he didn't get
• 28:58
  Speaker 5: it is because he got hurt one of these years.
• 29:00
  Speaker 5: But he was a Pro bowler every single year, one
• 29:02
  Speaker 5: of the best players in Cowboy's history. Sometimes you need
• 29:06
  Speaker 5: a new coach, sometimes you need a new voice, sometimes
• 29:08
  Speaker 5: you need a new something to kind of get you
• 29:10
  Speaker 5: in the right in the right situation, a new offense,
• 29:12
  Speaker 5: whatever it was. So what I'm saying is they don't
• 29:16
  Speaker 5: get rid of young lineman just because they're having a
• 29:18
  Speaker 5: hard time giving up a sack here or there or whatever.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: Like.
• 29:21
  Speaker 5: There's probably a lot more to it, So we'll keep
• 29:23
  Speaker 5: an eye on that one. Uh, Nigel and Arizona is
• 29:26
  Speaker 5: our next caller, Well, how are you? Are you okay?
• 29:34
  Speaker 11: Well, Nick, you asked me that every time. I know,
• 29:36
  Speaker 11: all right, it's okay. No, life is good, but no,
• 29:40
  Speaker 11: I'm not okay. But you know you brought up some points.
• 29:44
  Speaker 11: I have a fix al and I'm going to tell
• 29:47
  Speaker 11: you that last this who's going to fix the rest
• 29:50
  Speaker 11: of the season and next year? Were you with you
• 29:52
  Speaker 11: on twelve now became? Uh yeah, took him a couple
• 29:55
  Speaker 11: of years, but he was He was a bad ass.
• 29:58
  Speaker 11: So I agree with you on the one players. You know,
• 30:00
  Speaker 11: it's been pretty obvious over the last four years the Kings, know,
• 30:05
  Speaker 11: I mean, we came out with the Texans like a
• 30:08
  Speaker 11: type bunch, no wide receivers out. What do you think
• 30:12
  Speaker 11: we're gonna do? I mean, it was so bossy, can't
• 30:15
  Speaker 11: we've got stuff? So yeah, going back to what you
• 30:19
  Speaker 11: were talking about in the run situation. We've got to
• 30:21
  Speaker 11: show something that hey, you know, we don't know if
• 30:23
  Speaker 11: they're going to run. This looks like it could be
• 30:25
  Speaker 11: someone else and then run Lewis Duce. We don't have
• 30:29
  Speaker 11: the intelligence to figure out how to use this guy.
• 30:32
  Speaker 11: Just done with them. Mingo love the size. Like you said,
• 30:36
  Speaker 11: he looked pretty pissed off to me when those passes
• 30:40
  Speaker 11: weren't getting to him. So here's your FIXEL and I
• 30:43
  Speaker 11: hope you love this one. We'll call him Phil Jackson.
• 30:47
  Speaker 11: We're going to have him come to at and T Stadium.
• 30:50
  Speaker 11: We're going to dim the lights down if he's going
• 30:52
  Speaker 11: to stage that place, and that curse is going to
• 30:55
  Speaker 11: be gone. Loving that happy Thanksgiving blessings to you.
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: Sir, all right, thank you? All right.
• 31:02
  Speaker 5: Uh I'm gonna have to go back and try to
• 31:05
  Speaker 5: listen to that call again because it didn't I honestly
• 31:08
  Speaker 5: only heard about half of it. I really couldn't uh
• 31:11
  Speaker 5: hear what he was saying. Uh sorry, Nigel, but I
• 31:17
  Speaker 5: heard you say that's something about Mingo maybe being frustrated
• 31:20
  Speaker 5: with Yeah. I mean, of course these guys are fresh receiver.
• 31:23
  Speaker 5: Any receiver that gets opened that the ball doesn't hit there,
• 31:25
  Speaker 5: they get frustrated, especially a situation like this where you know,
• 31:29
  Speaker 5: he's been considered a bust uh since he since he
• 31:32
  Speaker 5: got drafted. Uh, he's you know, he's the trade has
• 31:35
  Speaker 5: been mocked. Of course it's not his fault, but you
• 31:38
  Speaker 5: know it's another easy way to slam Jerry in the
• 31:41
  Speaker 5: front office and Steven about making moves like this, and
• 31:44
  Speaker 5: so you know, he's easy to throw out his stats and.
• 31:46
  Speaker 4: All that guy like that. They hear it.
• 31:48
  Speaker 5: They know what they want to come in and prove,
• 31:50
  Speaker 5: prove themselves. That's what he said. He wanted to come
• 31:52
  Speaker 5: in here and prove himself. That's that's the frustrating thing
• 31:55
  Speaker 5: about receivers. You know, they don't give themselves the ball.
• 31:58
  Speaker 5: They got to be able to make a play. So,
• 32:00
  Speaker 5: you know, I don't know how frustrated he was or is,
• 32:02
  Speaker 5: but you know those guys are eager to go make place,
• 32:06
  Speaker 5: and they especially for him, who's been considered, you know,
• 32:09
  Speaker 5: his careers already considered a bust. And it's a year
• 32:12
  Speaker 5: and a half into it. Let's go to Tony and
• 32:14
  Speaker 5: Alexandria Virginia.
• 32:17
  Speaker 4: Nick am I on you are what's up?
• 32:19
  Speaker 14: Hey?
• 32:19
  Speaker 7: Long long time and we'll talk to how you doing.
• 32:23
  Speaker 7: I am doing good, and uh, you know, it has
• 32:28
  Speaker 7: been hard to get on to your to your show
• 32:31
  Speaker 7: there based on you know, all the calls you get.
• 32:33
  Speaker 7: And uh, with that being said, it's probably going to
• 32:37
  Speaker 7: be my last call from Alexandria Virginia because I'll refresh
• 32:42
  Speaker 7: your memory if you recall it. Called in last year
• 32:44
  Speaker 7: saying that we're about to make the move to the
• 32:47
  Speaker 7: Metroplex there we're building a home. I'm not going to
• 32:49
  Speaker 7: say the suburb because I'm gonna call. I don't think
• 32:51
  Speaker 7: I've listened to every show and I'm pretty sure I
• 32:54
  Speaker 7: have not heard that suburb. Anyone from the Metroplex call
• 32:57
  Speaker 7: in with that suburb.
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: Hold on, let start with F.
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: And it's not for us, it's not where we are. No, no, no, no,
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: got it anyway.
• 33:10
  Speaker 7: So with that being said, Christian chimement on this too.
• 33:14
  Speaker 7: So with moving to the Metroplex question, would you rather
• 33:20
  Speaker 7: somewhere to tie you down? And had you choose, would
• 33:21
  Speaker 7: you rather live closer to the stadium or closer to
• 33:26
  Speaker 7: the star based on based on, like, you know, all
• 33:29
  Speaker 7: the activities that go on, whether in year or out
• 33:32
  Speaker 7: of a year or what have you? And then I
• 33:34
  Speaker 7: have a am I the only one? Because a couple
• 33:36
  Speaker 7: of shows that gir You're like, people will call into it.
• 33:38
  Speaker 7: I'm the only one. Am I the only one that
• 33:42
  Speaker 7: likes the black based outfit, like the black helmet and
• 33:46
  Speaker 7: a black uniform with like maybe the Cowboy blue in it.
• 33:50
  Speaker 7: I've seen other teams, like the Detroit stands out like
• 33:53
  Speaker 7: a couple of weeks ago. I think they're on Monday
• 33:56
  Speaker 7: night or Sunday, They're on a primetime game and their
• 33:59
  Speaker 7: uniforms were fire. They were like black and they had
• 34:02
  Speaker 7: the Detroit like like their colors like stand out. Arizona
• 34:08
  Speaker 7: has one zero, Billy, Yeah, there's one.
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: Zero.
• 34:17
  Speaker 7: Yeah, There's there's a couple of other teams out there,
• 34:20
  Speaker 7: But I'm like, am I the only one that that
• 34:22
  Speaker 7: likes that?
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: Anyways?
• 34:23
  Speaker 5: But now you're probably not the only one that likes it.
• 34:26
  Speaker 5: I'm sure that the Cowboy I'm sure a lot of
• 34:28
  Speaker 5: Cowboy fans like it.
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 34:29
  Speaker 5: The problem is is, you know, when it comes down
• 34:32
  Speaker 5: to history, tradition, things like that, there's people that that
• 34:35
  Speaker 5: don't and when and the Cowboys just don't. They don't
• 34:38
  Speaker 5: change their their their jerseys a lot. They do some
• 34:41
  Speaker 5: have an alternate they don't mix it up.
• 34:43
  Speaker 4: They don't.
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: They don't. They don't change that. Those teams that do
• 34:46
  Speaker 5: that the reason why I was I was saying zero. Yeah, Detroit,
• 34:48
  Speaker 5: they're having a hell of a year, no doubt about it.
• 34:51
  Speaker 5: They they might be the super Bowl favorite right now
• 34:54
  Speaker 5: because they're dominating everybody. We saw it when they came here.
• 34:57
  Speaker 5: They have no I mean they're here, they've been around
• 34:59
  Speaker 5: since nineteen thirty. But do they have a tradition other
• 35:02
  Speaker 5: than playing on Thanksgiving as the warm up to the Cowboys?
• 35:06
  Speaker 5: I mean, the same with Houston, same with Jacksonville's Arizona.
• 35:11
  Speaker 5: I mean they can trick up their their jerseys and
• 35:14
  Speaker 5: uniforms and do all that stuff. Cowboys don't do that.
• 35:16
  Speaker 5: And that's kind of why. That's why does it look cool? Yeah,
• 35:20
  Speaker 5: it looks cool all these teams you know we're playing.
• 35:22
  Speaker 7: Yeah, Because if you're to ask me what's my favorite
• 35:25
  Speaker 7: piece of Cowboy paraphernalia, it's my black football helmet that
• 35:29
  Speaker 7: I have. I've got three of them, the white one,
• 35:30
  Speaker 7: the traditional one, and then the black one. But if
• 35:33
  Speaker 7: you were to ask me what my favorite piece of
• 35:35
  Speaker 7: paraphernalia is, it's the black football helmet. It just stands out.
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: But that's just me.
• 35:39
  Speaker 5: No, And that's anyway, And that's cool because it'll never
• 35:41
  Speaker 5: be in the game.
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: Probably they'll never have it.
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: I get it. Well, good luck this week.
• 35:47
  Speaker 5: I know you're still in Alexandria, and I'm sure there's
• 35:50
  Speaker 5: a there's a Commander's fan or three out there talking crap,
• 35:54
  Speaker 5: So good luck.
• 35:54
  Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, yeah, they're happy. I mean, I get it.
• 35:57
  Speaker 7: They've been down for a while and now they looks
• 35:59
  Speaker 7: like they're up, and you know, as far as in
• 36:03
  Speaker 7: them winning and possibly winning the division. But it's kind
• 36:07
  Speaker 7: of like with the Giants, the Commanders.
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: And the Eagles.
• 36:10
  Speaker 7: You have to choose the less of the evils. And
• 36:13
  Speaker 7: if I had to choose one besides the Cowboys winning
• 36:15
  Speaker 7: the division, it would probably be the Commanders because I
• 36:18
  Speaker 7: cannot stand the Eagles for nothing. So anyways, but again
• 36:22
  Speaker 7: that's just me. But anyways, I'll hang out.
• 36:25
  Speaker 5: That is not just you, all right, thanks for the
• 36:27
  Speaker 5: call that I promise you that is not just you.
• 36:29
  Speaker 5: That's one that's not just you. That there's a lot
• 36:31
  Speaker 5: of people that can't stand the Eagles, including their own fans.
• 36:34
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 36:36
  Speaker 5: To answer your question about closer to the Star or
• 36:39
  Speaker 5: closer to the you know, the stadium. I would say
• 36:45
  Speaker 5: closer to work. I'm sorry, but I mean, I don't
• 36:47
  Speaker 5: know how traffic is in other places, but I would
• 36:49
  Speaker 5: say closer to work.
• 36:50
  Speaker 4: That's just me.
• 36:52
  Speaker 5: You're going to go to the state. You have season
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: tickets to the Cowboy game. That would be ten times
• 36:58
  Speaker 5: to go out there, including two precs and games. I
• 37:00
  Speaker 5: don't know how many tours you would be taking here
• 37:02
  Speaker 5: at the Stars, so I don't know how many times
• 37:04
  Speaker 5: you got to come out here. So you know what,
• 37:06
  Speaker 5: either way, you'll make the trip there and it'll be
• 37:09
  Speaker 5: worth it. Wherever you are, I would stay closer to work.
• 37:11
  Speaker 4: That's just me.
• 37:12
  Speaker 5: I'm not I don't love the traffic on any place,
• 37:15
  Speaker 5: and so that's.
• 37:16
  Speaker 4: You're probably asking the wrong guy there.
• 37:18
  Speaker 5: All right, let's go to our next caller is out
• 37:23
  Speaker 5: Allen's with this Gavin Galvin, Oklahoma City, Gavin.
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: Hey, what's up?
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: Man?
• 37:29
  Speaker 4: What's up?
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: Nothing good? Not with this season? It hasn't been fun
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: at all anywhere.
• 37:37
  Speaker 4: You'd be on to my top five list.
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: Man.
• 37:39
  Speaker 5: If we're just gonna hang out and just and just
• 37:41
  Speaker 5: you know, drink a beer two or six I'll be like, man,
• 37:45
  Speaker 5: I think I don't even know. You just seem like
• 37:46
  Speaker 5: you just kind of cool. I went Randy, I gotta
• 37:48
  Speaker 5: have Randy there too.
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: But I mean, yeah, I mean I get that a lot.
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: I'm I'm a very relaxed person, and I just I
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: don't know. I enjoy life, man. I like kicking back
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: and doing stuff.
• 38:00
  Speaker 5: What what what happens when Turpin catches the ball? You're
• 38:03
  Speaker 5: down fourteen to nothing, You're wondering if you're ever going
• 38:06
  Speaker 5: to score this year? And Turpin catches the ball and
• 38:08
  Speaker 5: cuts house house called where are you are? You just like,
• 38:13
  Speaker 5: go go go turfing.
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: Well, I have a I have a personal connection with
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: that because Turpin is from my hometown. Okay, and he
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: when he scored that touchdown, I was probably yelling louder
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: to anybody doesn't cowpboards. And I never I never get
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: up and holler and scream usually at the game, unless
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: I see a sack, a pick six, or a long touchdown.
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: So that met the criterier. I got up and I
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: was like, let's go tur goes. That's my guy, all right.
• 38:44
  Speaker 5: I didn't know that. I didn't know that that. I
• 38:46
  Speaker 5: didn't know that he was from. Uh, because where is
• 38:49
  Speaker 5: he from, whether.
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: Monroe, Louisiana, Neville High School alone. I went to Washtaw
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: High School, which was across the river. I got to
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: play on the opposite of him before as a sophomore
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: and he was a senior. But uh, yeah, he's uh,
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: he's a hometown hero for sure where I'm from. And uh,
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: it was really fun to see him do that. I
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: really hope the Cowboys can find a way to get
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: him back on the team. But uh, here's what I
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: got for you, man. First of all, I've heard a
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: couple of people on the show to last you just
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: kind of float around ideas of Dak being traded. Number one,
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: mean you both know that's a waste of breath. And
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: number two, I think if anything, the stretch up Games
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: has kind of showed you that maybe Dak is playing
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: at a high level, maybe this team around him is
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: not at a high level, you know what I mean.
• 39:37
  Speaker 4: Fair, I mean yeah.
• 39:39
  Speaker 5: I mean Dak is one of those guys. It's like, oh,
• 39:43
  Speaker 5: he's not worth this, this and that, whatever it is.
• 39:45
  Speaker 5: But when he's not here, you see that, you see
• 39:48
  Speaker 5: you know the problem. You know you see that you
• 39:51
  Speaker 5: wish he was that. That's all I'm saying is is
• 39:54
  Speaker 5: do you you give he gives you a way better
• 39:56
  Speaker 5: chance to win? Because this defense isn't good enough to
• 40:01
  Speaker 5: carry a backup quarterback right now. You know it was
• 40:04
  Speaker 5: two years ago, it's certainly not this year. And so
• 40:08
  Speaker 5: I think Dak certainly, you know, gives you a better
• 40:10
  Speaker 5: chance to win. And you know they know that, we know,
• 40:13
  Speaker 5: we all know that. Right Is he worth the number one,
• 40:16
  Speaker 5: you know, the highest paid player in the history of
• 40:19
  Speaker 5: the NFL? Well, probably not, but that's that's also the
• 40:22
  Speaker 5: way the order goes the market. Yeah, that's the way
• 40:26
  Speaker 5: it goes. He'll be twelfth, thirteenth or whatever. And in
• 40:30
  Speaker 5: two years, which is what he was before he signed
• 40:33
  Speaker 5: this deal, he was about fourteenth, and that's route where
• 40:36
  Speaker 5: he is in that ten to fourteen range. It depends
• 40:39
  Speaker 5: on what you think about quarterbacks, but that's kind of
• 40:41
  Speaker 5: the way it goes.
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: I feel like, from an intellectual standpoint, you got to
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: see those contracts more than an investment than if they're
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: the highest paid player in their position or not, because,
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: like you said, in a few years, these players that
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: we just paid are going to look like great deals
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: and when their contract comes up and if we have
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: to sign one or two of them again, it ain't
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: gonna look like a good anymore because you just pay
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: more than everybody else. That's just that's the way the
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: market is. I have a decent understanding of the market.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: I don't think most fans do, so that's kind of
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: where you have troubles with that on the show. But
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: the other thing I wanted to say is I think
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: it's fair to look forward now. Obviously unfortunately for you,
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: because I know this is kind of a week to
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: week show.
• 41:22
  Speaker 4: But well, I look forward.
• 41:24
  Speaker 5: You can look forward. It's just you know, I look
• 41:27
  Speaker 5: three days forward. You guys are looking three months.
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: I get that, right, It's it's a little bit easier
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: to do now. I'm with you on that usually, but
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: as a fan to get excited, you kind of have
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: to look ahead right at this second. So I kind
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: of think y'all nailed it yesterday at the end of
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: the show with the three four defense. If you're going
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: to pay Micah, and I think you have to pay
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: Micah me personally. If you pay Micah a grand contract,
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: like we know he's gonna require, he needs to be
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: in a three four at least being way that maximizes
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: him and him and overshown on opposite side of the defense.
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: I'm in love with that idea, man, I am.
• 42:07
  Speaker 4: That could be nasty. Yeah, I'm you're a fan of
• 42:09
  Speaker 4: that too.
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 42:10
  Speaker 4: Now what I don't know though, is I'm not So
• 42:13
  Speaker 4: you have another question.
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: I got I got one more thing to say, and
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: I'll just let you talk. Yeah, and I know you
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: really ain't gonna talk about this, so this is more
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: of our comment. Go for it. I think we have
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: to address the running back room obviously this offseason. And
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: I think there's a kid on Boys State were really
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: good in Cowboys uniform.
• 42:31
  Speaker 4: I'm just saying, all right, well, I appreciate that. I
• 42:35
  Speaker 4: know who you're talking. He's heights.
• 42:38
  Speaker 5: You know, he'll be a finalist there, Astron Gent I
• 42:41
  Speaker 5: believe it's his name. Yeah, he looks he looks good,
• 42:46
  Speaker 5: uh for sure. Again, running backs are tough and tough
• 42:50
  Speaker 5: to tell.
• 42:50
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 42:51
  Speaker 5: Sometimes you see these backs and and they get projected
• 42:53
  Speaker 5: as you know, second rounders, third rounders whatever. Obviously we're not.
• 42:58
  Speaker 5: We may be doing a draft show in December. Well
• 43:00
  Speaker 5: they'll be talking about that. Still, it's you know, it's
• 43:03
  Speaker 5: there's a lot to be. There's a lot happening between
• 43:06
  Speaker 5: now and then, so it's just all speculation at this point.
• 43:09
  Speaker 5: But you know, you got to fix that offensive line.
• 43:14
  Speaker 5: You needed to fix the line. But I'll say this though,
• 43:19
  Speaker 5: it's not just that with running backs, it's a it's
• 43:23
  Speaker 5: a combination. I kind of think of a running back
• 43:26
  Speaker 5: like I think of a photographer.
• 43:29
  Speaker 4: Okay, Like I get it.
• 43:31
  Speaker 5: The ones that are really good are the ones that
• 43:33
  Speaker 5: you know, they have this great equipment, But I couldn't
• 43:36
  Speaker 5: take that equipment and have a great picture. I mean,
• 43:40
  Speaker 5: I think it's a combination of you got to have
• 43:42
  Speaker 5: the right equipment around you, the right tools, but you
• 43:45
  Speaker 5: also have to have something inside, some talent as well.
• 43:50
  Speaker 5: And I say that, I mean I think Rico Yeah,
• 43:53
  Speaker 5: I mean, I don't know if Rico Daddle's having a
• 43:55
  Speaker 5: fifteen hundred yard year behind that offensive line, DeMarco Murray
• 43:59
  Speaker 5: rushed for. I don't just don't think he's got that
• 44:01
  Speaker 5: in him. I don't think he's he doesn't hit the
• 44:03
  Speaker 5: hole as quick, he'll he'll he makes mistakes here, he'll
• 44:06
  Speaker 5: drop the ball here, fum fumble. I mean, I think
• 44:09
  Speaker 5: he's a good, solid runner, but I don't think he's
• 44:12
  Speaker 5: got that special quality and and and so I think
• 44:15
  Speaker 5: you do need that. What I'm saying is, you do
• 44:17
  Speaker 5: need a special running back. But you also got to
• 44:20
  Speaker 5: fix that line and got to do a little bit
• 44:22
  Speaker 5: of both. What I was saying about Overshown, I love
• 44:25
  Speaker 5: that idea with Parsons and Overshown, But I like the
• 44:29
  Speaker 5: way Overshown tracks the ball and having him in the
• 44:33
  Speaker 5: middle of the field as one of those linebackers. If
• 44:36
  Speaker 5: he can hold up there and do that, and the
• 44:38
  Speaker 5: way he run, his awareness and and how he tackles
• 44:41
  Speaker 5: and he gets to the football. I don't know if
• 44:44
  Speaker 5: I want him on the edge like that. On the
• 44:46
  Speaker 5: other side, I kind of like him in the middle
• 44:48
  Speaker 5: as well. Either way, he's a great player. They they'll
• 44:50
  Speaker 5: figure it out. But you know, Sam Williams will be
• 44:54
  Speaker 5: coming back. He seems like a pretty good three four
• 44:56
  Speaker 5: outside linebacker as well when he's healthy. So they should
• 45:00
  Speaker 5: have some options if that's what they decide to do.
• 45:02
  Speaker 5: All right, let's go to Rick in Massachusetts.
• 45:05
  Speaker 14: Hey, Ny, how are you doing good?
• 45:07
  Speaker 4: How are you all right?
• 45:10
  Speaker 14: Your son's all your son's sports.
• 45:12
  Speaker 5: Activity is doing He's good playing basketball. He's playing basketball now.
• 45:18

• 45:29
  Speaker 14: If anybody out there wants to join.
• 45:31
  Speaker 5: Your join, I'm joining in the show tonight nine o'clock
• 45:35
  Speaker 5: your time. That's eight o'clock Central. Yeah, correct, How long
• 45:39
  Speaker 5: y'all usually go two or three hours?
• 45:42
  Speaker 14: It goes like three hours.
• 45:44
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna get in there. I'm gonna get in there tonight.
• 45:46
  Speaker 5: I don't know when I tried the other day. I
• 45:48
  Speaker 5: tried to get in and there were some kind of
• 45:49
  Speaker 5: technical issues or something. It got kicked out.
• 45:52
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 45:53
  Speaker 5: But I'm gonna get in there tonight, eight o'clock, eight
• 45:56
  Speaker 5: till eleven.
• 45:58
  Speaker 14: That's good. The other thing is that uh getting turperend
• 46:03
  Speaker 14: in the you know, the ball at the beginning of
• 46:05
  Speaker 14: that in the first half, but he didn't see much
• 46:08
  Speaker 14: of them in the second half, so it was like,
• 46:11
  Speaker 14: but some of the other people like Florinois and Yeah,
• 46:16
  Speaker 14: but the I think the tight ends span Ford and
• 46:20
  Speaker 14: uh Schoolmamber kind of stepped up, stepped it up without
• 46:23
  Speaker 14: Furgas in there.
• 46:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah, they did a nice job. I was I was
• 46:26
  Speaker 5: impressed with them. You know that they caught the ball
• 46:29
  Speaker 5: they you know they did. They're not going to be
• 46:30
  Speaker 5: the same type of guys Ferguson. They're not gonna break
• 46:32
  Speaker 5: a lot of tackles and you don't see a lot
• 46:34
  Speaker 5: of run after catch.
• 46:35
  Speaker 4: But they it wasn't bad.
• 46:36
  Speaker 5: I thought span Ford did a nice job too, especially
• 46:38
  Speaker 5: breaking some tackles getting out of bounds on a play.
• 46:41
  Speaker 5: He's got to keep keep playing, keep playing, for sure.
• 46:45
  Speaker 14: Okay. I look forward to here tonight.
• 46:48

• 48:10
  Speaker 2: Hey?
• 48:10
  Speaker 7: Nick?
• 48:10
  Speaker 4: How you doing good?
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: Man?
• 48:11
  Speaker 10: You not too bad?
• 48:13
  Speaker 6: Nick?
• 48:14
  Speaker 10: Real quick? I was wondering with the situation. You know,
• 48:19
  Speaker 10: now that that we're on with the young players, right,
• 48:22
  Speaker 10: who makes the decision on playing the young guys? Now
• 48:26
  Speaker 10: that you know, we want to see what we have
• 48:29
  Speaker 10: hopefully for next year and according to the draft, what
• 48:32
  Speaker 10: will you know what we'll need and what we should
• 48:34
  Speaker 10: get and just even for backup roles. Uh is that
• 48:38
  Speaker 10: something management makes decisions on or is this according to
• 48:42
  Speaker 10: the coaching staff, Because if it's the coaching staff, I'm
• 48:44
  Speaker 10: imagining they want to continue playing the veterans better give
• 48:49
  Speaker 10: them a better better shot to win. But we want
• 48:52
  Speaker 10: to they need to know what they what they need
• 48:55
  Speaker 10: for the future.
• 48:55
  Speaker 5: Now, that's I mean, and that and that's the that's
• 48:59
  Speaker 5: something that's probably been an issue for teams and coaches
• 49:03
  Speaker 5: for years.
• 49:04
  Speaker 4: I mean, this is not new.
• 49:05
  Speaker 5: This is this is because you got to remember the
• 49:08
  Speaker 5: front office, so they're not going anywhere and know they're
• 49:10
  Speaker 5: they're here, So.
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: Yes, I'm.
• 49:14
  Speaker 10: To step in and be like, well, they have personal meetings.
• 49:18
  Speaker 5: They have personnel meetings every week. They do this at
• 49:21
  Speaker 5: the front office. I mean, remember the GM. I mean
• 49:24
  Speaker 5: these are the personnel. And then they talk about how
• 49:26
  Speaker 5: things are and what their questions are are. How different
• 49:30
  Speaker 5: is Flinoy than Jalen Brooks right now? And and if
• 49:34
  Speaker 5: they say if the answer is Jalen Brooks is by
• 49:37
  Speaker 5: far a better player, Flinoy is not even close, then
• 49:40
  Speaker 5: I'm sure we keep playing Jalen Brooks or whatever. But
• 49:44
  Speaker 5: if if it's like, well, it's kind of right there.
• 49:46
  Speaker 5: And actually Flinoy, you know, it might be a little
• 49:49
  Speaker 5: bit better here. Okay, play the young guy. But I
• 49:52
  Speaker 5: mean so that that those conversations are having all the time,
• 49:55
  Speaker 5: you know.
• 49:56
  Speaker 4: And so if.
• 50:00
  Speaker 10: The quarterback situation right now, sure, yes, who do we
• 50:03
  Speaker 10: want to resign? This guy's this guy's younger, and you
• 50:06
  Speaker 10: know we gave up a draft pick for Man's.
• 50:09
  Speaker 5: Of course, yes, I do think your general manager gets
• 50:13
  Speaker 5: involved in and and and Steven Jones and on that.
• 50:15
  Speaker 5: That's part of the personnel meetings as part of the
• 50:18
  Speaker 5: questions with Will McLay, it's it's it's yes, they make
• 50:21
  Speaker 5: those those those decisions there, you know, and and and
• 50:25
  Speaker 5: if they say, well what about this corner Kemon Hall,
• 50:27
  Speaker 5: how does he relate to Trayvon Diggs? And then they
• 50:30
  Speaker 5: look like seriously like okay, uh, everybody, you know what
• 50:33
  Speaker 5: I'm saying. So it's not for everybody, it's not it's
• 50:35
  Speaker 5: not we're not taking everybody out. But I think if
• 50:37
  Speaker 5: it's close, uh you know in Flinoya, Jalen Brooks, the Temple.
• 50:41
  Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean the younger guys, the guys that are
• 50:43
  Speaker 10: on the track much longer.
• 50:45
  Speaker 5: And McCarthy understands that he understands that he understands.
• 50:48
  Speaker 10: The robe and his press conference and his press conference
• 50:51
  Speaker 10: he was saying about, well, this guy gives me.
• 50:54
  Speaker 2: It gives us a.
• 50:55
  Speaker 10: Better chance to win, which helps out his record, because
• 50:58
  Speaker 10: you know, McCarthy doesn't want to have all these losses
• 51:00
  Speaker 10: for the rest of the season. Eight more losses on
• 51:03
  Speaker 10: his record.
• 51:03
  Speaker 5: Of course, and then and that might help you know,
• 51:06
  Speaker 5: that needs that he needs, he needs to win games.
• 51:08
  Speaker 10: That's nick if they're as good as coaches that as
• 51:13
  Speaker 10: they are. This team is bad, this team is young, right,
• 51:15
  Speaker 10: will develop these guys. Let's see how good of coaches
• 51:17
  Speaker 10: you really are. Let's look up these guys. Let's see
• 51:20
  Speaker 10: if at the end of the season we get some
• 51:21
  Speaker 10: guys that are at least be good role players, good backups,
• 51:25
  Speaker 10: like like uh, the other guy was saying, uh, the
• 51:27
  Speaker 10: short running back. Yeah, you put him in situations that
• 51:30
  Speaker 10: are that aren't for him to win. You put some
• 51:32
  Speaker 10: of these players in situations that are that are they're
• 51:35
  Speaker 10: gonna lose in certain situations. If you're a good coach,
• 51:38
  Speaker 10: you're gonna set them up for for uh, not for
• 51:41
  Speaker 10: failure to to win, you know, and which to help
• 51:43
  Speaker 10: out the team and help out the players and help
• 51:45
  Speaker 10: you know, everybody, even them, but it puts them in
• 51:48
  Speaker 10: a bad situation where they're putting players that can't do
• 51:51
  Speaker 10: certain things, and you put them in a situation to
• 51:53
  Speaker 10: the things that they're not good at. So thanks for
• 51:56
  Speaker 10: taking my running gotta.
• 51:57
  Speaker 4: Get Yeah, I appreciate it.
• 51:58
  Speaker 5: But that that's I mean good questions and that those
• 52:01
  Speaker 5: are those are conversations that are that are being happy,
• 52:03
  Speaker 5: not just here a lot of places. You know, what
• 52:06
  Speaker 5: gives us the best chance to win now versus down
• 52:09
  Speaker 5: the road?
• 52:09
  Speaker 11: You know?
• 52:10
  Speaker 4: Or do you have progress stoppers?
• 52:11
  Speaker 5: And I think as the as the games continue to
• 52:14
  Speaker 5: go and we get more games like this, you're going
• 52:16
  Speaker 5: to see that more and more, you know what I mean,
• 52:18
  Speaker 5: Like until you're out of it and they're not, so
• 52:21
  Speaker 5: you have to even though I know you guys are like,
• 52:23
  Speaker 5: well they're out, technically they're not, so so you have
• 52:26
  Speaker 5: to keep kind of playing a certain way. But I
• 52:28
  Speaker 5: think slowly you'll start to see and and you know,
• 52:30
  Speaker 5: see the players again though Cowboys don't have to try
• 52:33
  Speaker 5: to tank anything here. They've got they're playing a second quarterback,
• 52:37
  Speaker 5: maybe a third that they haven't had a legitimate number
• 52:41
  Speaker 5: one running back all year long. Their offensive line has
• 52:44
  Speaker 5: got a lot of young players on it.
• 52:46
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 52:47
  Speaker 5: They've got like nine players on injured reserve. Half of
• 52:50
  Speaker 5: the eleven starters or the twenty two starters in that
• 52:53
  Speaker 5: Browns game, half of them have been on IR at
• 52:55
  Speaker 5: some point, missed games. They don't have to try to
• 52:57
  Speaker 5: do this. It's already happening. We'll see how it continues, though.
• 53:01
  Speaker 5: It's been fun talking to you guys today. We'll talk
• 53:03
  Speaker 5: tomorrow on Cowboys storyline. We'll see then.
• 53:05
