- 0:43Speaker 3: I let's talk some Cowboys football. Let's talk about the
- 0:46Speaker 3: players that are on the field and I guess the
- 0:48Speaker 3: ones that aren't. That's the big news here with this
- 0:51Speaker 3: team right now is the fact that there's been so
- 0:54Speaker 3: many injuries. We were discussing it just last night on
- 0:57Speaker 3: how many players and how what is normal with a
- 0:59Speaker 3: no amount of injuries. I would say the first week
- 1:02Speaker 3: anywhere between four to five, six guys. But we're down
- 1:07Speaker 3: to nine right now, nine guys. I guess up to nine.
- 1:10Speaker 3: Up to nine players that are banged up in the
- 1:13Speaker 3: most recent was Kaylin Carson this morning. He's got a
- 1:17Speaker 3: knee injury. It'll be out about four to six weeks.
- 1:19Speaker 3: Hyper extension. There. The bigger news of them all was
- 1:23Speaker 3: Tyler Geiton. We'll get to that all that here in
- 1:25Speaker 3: a second. Let's get let's make sure we get our
- 1:27Speaker 3: phone numbers out here. Two, one, four, three, eight, seven, one, six,
- 1:31Speaker 3: five nine. We already have two callers on the line,
- 1:36Speaker 3: so let's just go ahead and get to that. And
- 1:38Speaker 3: I think here over the course of the next few minutes,
- 1:41Speaker 3: we will get to all the injuries and kind of
- 1:42Speaker 3: discuss all the stuff that's going on too good and
- 1:44Speaker 3: bad that there's been some signings as well, maybe not
- 1:47Speaker 3: the one you thought was gonna happen, but we can
- 1:49Speaker 3: talk about Jake Ferguson and what that means. All right,
- 1:52Speaker 3: let's start it off. Michael Bowling, Green, Kentucky. He's first.
- 1:54Speaker 3: What's up? Oh, what is up with you?
- 2:01Speaker 4: On your last show in June, you said all the
- 2:05Speaker 4: Yannies were shipped? And the very next day Brown Santa
- 2:09Speaker 4: Claus come pulling up.
- 2:11Speaker 3: Okay, are you referring to UPS? I hope I'm.
- 2:15Speaker 5: Referring to UPS.
- 2:16Speaker 4: Yeah, I got my uh got my my Yanny?
- 2:20Speaker 3: Okay, good, good, I don't want to hear stories that
- 2:22Speaker 3: that they didn't come through, but oh.
- 2:25Speaker 5: Mine came through. I love it.
- 2:26Speaker 4: It's awesome. I'm proud to have it.
- 2:28Speaker 3: Awesome. Well, I'm so glad you're you're one of the
- 2:31Speaker 3: one of the top guys for US Man, you're a
- 2:33Speaker 3: first teamer, and you're one of the reasons we've we've
- 2:36Speaker 3: had a successful show here in the first couple of seasons.
- 2:40Speaker 5: So I know, I can't believe his third season.
- 2:44Speaker 3: Season three, huh. I know. I remember the very first
- 2:48Speaker 3: show I did right out here, baking in the sun.
- 2:50Speaker 3: It was like right in the afternoon and a thirty
- 2:53Speaker 3: minute show with no callers, and uh, it was pretty cool.
- 2:56Speaker 3: It was pretty cool. But I like this format much
- 2:59Speaker 3: much better.
- 3:01Speaker 4: All Right, I got a quick question. I want to
- 3:03Speaker 4: know your opinion on this, and then I'll let somebody
- 3:06Speaker 4: else get in. I heard on a podcast recently that
- 3:10Speaker 4: if these three things happen this season, the Cowboys will
- 3:15Speaker 4: be a favorite to win the Super Bowl.
- 3:19Speaker 5: And they are number one.
- 3:21Speaker 4: We're gonna have to have four Pro Bowlers on the
- 3:26Speaker 4: defensevos on their defense. We're gonna have to have Booker
- 3:32Speaker 4: as the fifth best offensive lineman, and we're gonna.
- 3:39Speaker 5: Have to have number three. We're gonna have to have
- 3:43Speaker 5: him eight.
- 3:44Speaker 4: To nine hundred yards perceiving and eight to nine touchdowns,
- 3:50Speaker 4: which means CD is the number one is gonna have
- 3:52Speaker 4: more than that. What's your opinion of that?
- 3:56Speaker 3: Which one of those three do you think is the least?
- 4:00Speaker 3: Uh realistic? I'll get your opinion.
- 4:05Speaker 4: Oh man, Uh, I can see the defense possibly, but I.
- 4:11Speaker 5: Mean I don't.
- 4:12Speaker 4: I don't believe Booker is gonna be the fifth. No,
- 4:16Speaker 4: you know that means you know, everybody else has got
- 4:19Speaker 4: to step up even better, and I think Booker is
- 4:23Speaker 4: gonna be awesome.
- 4:24Speaker 5: I think that.
- 4:25Speaker 3: Would be my least Yeah, I agree with that. I
- 4:29Speaker 3: agree with that one. Okay, that that's a good Storf.
- 4:31Speaker 3: I don't know where I hadn't heard that before. That's
- 4:33Speaker 3: very specific. That's cool. That's what a podcast is supposed
- 4:36Speaker 3: to be. Uh. But thank you for that, and I'll
- 4:39Speaker 3: address it again. Thanks for the call. I'm a little
- 4:44Speaker 3: hesitating because I'm not sure exactly where that came from.
- 4:46Speaker 3: So I don't wanna. I don't want to sit there
- 4:48Speaker 3: and and and say I, you know, disagree opinions or
- 4:51Speaker 3: opinions that we talk about all the time they're undefeated.
- 4:53Speaker 3: So uh, if someone thinks that way, I think it's
- 4:56Speaker 3: a that's a little that's a little strong for Pro bowlers.
- 4:59Speaker 3: On the defense, I don't think that has to happen
- 5:03Speaker 3: for this team to be successful. I mean, some of
- 5:05Speaker 3: the better defenses, even back in the nineties had teams
- 5:08Speaker 3: that had good players, maybe one or two great players.
- 5:12Speaker 3: But four on the defense does seem a little extreme.
- 5:17Speaker 3: You know, Micah would would be one for sure. I
- 5:21Speaker 3: could see you know, Bland maybe at corner if he
- 5:25Speaker 3: has a big year. But you know the thing with
- 5:29Speaker 3: Bland is that he's going to have to you know,
- 5:31Speaker 3: he he'll get some interceptions here and there, but he
- 5:33Speaker 3: gives up some plays too. You know, we'll see if
- 5:37Speaker 3: he if he has a better season when it comes
- 5:39Speaker 3: to just straight up coverage. Malie Cooker had a really
- 5:43Speaker 3: nice practice yesterday. He was looking like a like a
- 5:45Speaker 3: guy that was a first round pick and uh and
- 5:48Speaker 3: and a playmaker. Osa could be could be that guy.
- 5:51Speaker 3: Maybe one of the linebackers, maybe Kenneth Murray before just
- 5:54Speaker 3: seems a little high there. I don't think it has
- 5:57Speaker 3: to happen if one of them is outstanding with if
- 6:00Speaker 3: Mike is outstanding, and he makes everyone around him better
- 6:03Speaker 3: and having good years and they all have some really
- 6:06Speaker 3: big plays here and there that that can work. Maybe
- 6:09Speaker 3: two Pro bowlers, maybe maybe three. Booker is the fifth
- 6:13Speaker 3: best lineman. I don't see that one. I hope not,
- 6:15Speaker 3: because that's not what you drafted. You didn't draft that
- 6:18Speaker 3: guy to be your fifth best lineman. You drafted him
- 6:21Speaker 3: to be, you know, a Pro Bowl guard at some point,
- 6:26Speaker 3: first year, maybe second year. That's why you draft him
- 6:29Speaker 3: at that spot. He's probably not gonna be better than
- 6:32Speaker 3: Tyler Smith, but I would imagine when as the season ends,
- 6:35Speaker 3: I would think he could be your second best lineman.
- 6:37Speaker 3: That's what I would hope at least. And then the
- 6:40Speaker 3: last part Pickens, you know, eight to nine hundred yards.
- 6:43Speaker 3: I mean, Pickens is such a big play player. You know,
- 6:46Speaker 3: he could be like you're Alvin Harper type guy where
- 6:48Speaker 3: he could just maybe not gonna catch a lot of passes,
- 6:51Speaker 3: but he's going to have some big, big plays because
- 6:54Speaker 3: that's what's going to be open for him. So anyways,
- 6:56Speaker 3: good good show, A good call to start us off here.
- 6:58Speaker 3: Let's go to Rick in Massachusetts next an you come down, Hey, Rick,
- 7:05Speaker 3: how are you doing am I will.
- 7:08Speaker 6: H yes, yes of those kind of will when when
- 7:12Speaker 6: you already heard the news about Tyler Dight and then
- 7:15Speaker 6: everybody's things go out and then there we go, Oh
- 7:19Speaker 6: what a relief.
- 7:21Speaker 3: Yeah. That was a roller coaster, wasn't it. I mean
- 7:24Speaker 3: it was because usually when when that happens, when when
- 7:29Speaker 3: you know, when you hear hey, they they're fearing the
- 7:34Speaker 3: an A C L tear, especially for a team that's
- 7:38Speaker 3: that's had so many of them and understands kind of
- 7:41Speaker 3: what that is like and looks like it feels like
- 7:44Speaker 3: you would you think that's going to be the case.
- 7:46Speaker 3: So for for that not to happen, that was a
- 7:48Speaker 3: really big sigh of relief for guiding and for the team.
- 7:52Speaker 6: Well, a couple of questions for you, what do you
- 7:55Speaker 6: think who do you think would be the starter who
- 7:58Speaker 6: have that attack or really Bed or Richards or Nathan Darmers.
- 8:07Speaker 3: Great question, you know, and and and they're gonna probably
- 8:09Speaker 3: battle it out. I mean I think that it's not
- 8:11Speaker 3: just gonna be one guy getting it. And that's what
- 8:14Speaker 3: makes it kind of tough because you want continuity on
- 8:17Speaker 3: the line, you want these five working together, but you
- 8:19Speaker 3: have to figure out who they are first, and so
- 8:23Speaker 3: they would love for it to be awesome. Richards. You know,
- 8:25Speaker 3: that would be awesome for them because they you know,
- 8:28Speaker 3: they drafted him and they they've developed them and they
- 8:30Speaker 3: think he can be pretty good. I have this feeling
- 8:34Speaker 3: it's gonna be identity. You know, he started in the
- 8:38Speaker 3: Super Bowl. That doesn't mean anything. That doesn't mean that
- 8:40Speaker 3: you're that you were great. But I mean he's got experience,
- 8:44Speaker 3: he's been around, he's been on good teams. He's I
- 8:46Speaker 3: mean that that Bengals offense was good and he was
- 8:48Speaker 3: he was one of the tackles for that. So, uh,
- 8:50Speaker 3: he didn't he didn't hurt them for sure. Now that
- 8:53Speaker 3: offensive line wasn't the best. But but I I think
- 8:56Speaker 3: he's a you know, he's a guy that's got experience.
- 8:58Speaker 3: I think I just kind of think it's gonna be
- 9:00Speaker 3: dentergy if they don't go and get someone else from
- 9:03Speaker 3: the outside. Got any more questions? Or is that it
- 9:07Speaker 3: for us?
- 9:08Speaker 7: Rick?
- 9:09Speaker 6: No, we said I was hearing about Klin Carson. Uh
- 9:13Speaker 6: TB cornerback room is really gonna be hurting.
- 9:17Speaker 3: Yeah, it is hurting for sure. Literally they are. They're
- 9:22Speaker 3: hurting in that cornerback room for sure. Rick, I'll address
- 9:26Speaker 3: that here off the air. Thanks for the call, appreciate that.
- 9:29Speaker 3: All right, Uh, let's let's talk about cornerbacks just just
- 9:31Speaker 3: for a second. Kaylin Carson hyper extension and his knee
- 9:34Speaker 3: out four to six weeks. This is a room that
- 9:37Speaker 3: already has you know, rehab injuries with Trey Von diggsphonephone
- 9:43Speaker 3: revel and then Andrew Booth has been has been banged
- 9:48Speaker 3: up as well. So and Josh Butler started out on
- 9:53Speaker 3: PP uh. So you know, he's they've got cornerbacks on
- 9:58Speaker 3: the roster, but they're not all ready to play. So
- 10:01Speaker 3: that that's you know, that's why they went out and
- 10:04Speaker 3: got Matthew from he's been around from the Ravens Cardinals. Uh,
- 10:09Speaker 3: signed him to the roster today. He was worked out yesterday.
- 10:13Speaker 3: You know, maybe they had a feeling that Carson that
- 10:15Speaker 3: was gonna that was coming down the pike for him.
- 10:17Speaker 3: But yeah, it's certainly been a tough start for this
- 10:22Speaker 3: team with injury wise, and especially when they pile up
- 10:24Speaker 3: at one position, which is happening at the cornerback position.
- 10:27Speaker 3: All Right, we're gonna try to move to our next
- 10:30Speaker 3: caller here, Antonio in Houston, Antonio, what's up.
- 10:36Speaker 8: Hey, Nick?
- 10:36Speaker 3: Hey man, thanks for the call. You're a first time caller, right, yes.
- 10:42Speaker 8: Sir, let me say this real quick. Please do that
- 10:46Speaker 8: Cowboys dation has a stronghold down here in Houston. You know,
- 10:50Speaker 8: sometimes you don't really talking about that Dallas Houston rivalry.
- 10:52Speaker 8: But I promise you this, Nick, I mean, of course
- 10:54Speaker 8: I'm not gonna go over your head. You're the expert. No, no,
- 10:58Speaker 8: people listen to this. People think that the biggest rival
- 11:03Speaker 8: to the Cowboys is the Eagles or whoever. Wouldn't not
- 11:06Speaker 8: be with the Niners. And even though it makes no
- 11:09Speaker 8: sense because we're NFC and they're AFC, but being in
- 11:12Speaker 8: a Texan I mean, the Cowboys fan in Houston, well,
- 11:15Speaker 8: I'll tell you it's with a badge of otter because
- 11:18Speaker 8: they just they're just they're just bad. As we exist.
- 11:20Speaker 8: I'm like, but I mean, come on, but away.
- 11:22Speaker 3: Well you know what why I call?
- 11:24Speaker 5: Okay?
- 11:24Speaker 3: First of all, Antonio, I just want to say here
- 11:26Speaker 3: we go from dak even though we haven't heard that
- 11:28Speaker 3: really a whole lot anymore. He's not really doing that
- 11:31Speaker 3: a lot. But we don't have our drop out here.
- 11:33Speaker 3: But that's what happens when we talk first time callers.
- 11:36Speaker 3: Uh we we kind of give you a shout out there,
- 11:38Speaker 3: So I am. I'm glad you were able to get in.
- 11:40Speaker 3: And let me say this too about Houston. I think
- 11:43Speaker 3: they're more upset because they're not the Cowboys biggest rival
- 11:48Speaker 3: at all. Now I know them it is. I don't
- 11:51Speaker 3: tell you what, but I don't think, yeah, I wish.
- 11:54Speaker 8: I mean, look at like this, and of course I
- 11:56Speaker 8: know there's a lot that goes into schedule each year,
- 11:59Speaker 8: but I know that the California teams find a way
- 12:01Speaker 8: to play each other each year. I know the Florida teams.
- 12:04Speaker 8: Really this should be a every season type of matchup,
- 12:08Speaker 8: especially now that they're going to be adding because we
- 12:11Speaker 8: already in seventeen.
- 12:12Speaker 3: Games, they already get to eighteen games. I'm one hundred
- 12:14Speaker 3: percent with you. I've been saying that, thank you, Chris
- 12:17Speaker 3: when's blowing around here. I've said this a hundred times,
- 12:20Speaker 3: I thousands of times. If they go to eighteen game schedule,
- 12:24Speaker 3: I think they should have a geographical rival every year,
- 12:27Speaker 3: and behind Yet and Texans Cowboys, I mean, and some
- 12:31Speaker 3: some teams. It's not natural, you know, it wouldn't be
- 12:33Speaker 3: a natural sit. But the first time you fight someone,
- 12:36Speaker 3: then all of a sudden it's a big rivalry. And
- 12:37Speaker 3: you do it every year, then that becomes a rival
- 12:40Speaker 3: But yeah, I one hundred percent think they should do
- 12:42Speaker 3: that with this eighteenth game because also we'll cut down
- 12:45Speaker 3: on on on travel as well, and you know, yeah,
- 12:49Speaker 3: I would definitely do that, of course.
- 12:51Speaker 1: Of course.
- 12:51Speaker 8: Yeah. Okay, So the main reason why I called was
- 12:54Speaker 8: a first a question that was like a small little comment. Uh, Now,
- 12:58Speaker 8: like I said, you all Defordycrover no better than this.
- 13:01Speaker 8: Isn't there like something in the NFL PA system when
- 13:04Speaker 8: they do all that negotiating stuff.
- 13:06Speaker 6: That isn't it illegal or not?
- 13:09Speaker 8: I mean not illegal but can be fined or whatever.
- 13:11Speaker 8: It's a owner uh tries to get a deal done
- 13:15Speaker 8: with healthy agent, and I mean, of course, I know
- 13:17Speaker 8: they can talk to each other, so that you remember
- 13:21Speaker 8: if you want to, you know, be winding back to
- 13:22Speaker 8: around draft time when they were like, hey, I think
- 13:25Speaker 8: we're pretty close to getting the deal done. And I mean,
- 13:27Speaker 8: I mean, of course, I'm I'm on the outside looking in,
- 13:30Speaker 8: but I'm assuming that the ownership would present and offer
- 13:34Speaker 8: the player and his representative his agent would look at it,
- 13:38Speaker 8: maybe make the counter and go from there. So of course,
- 13:41Speaker 8: whenever he asked Jerry, He's like, well, I'm not going
- 13:43Speaker 8: to talk about that. Mike is gonna you know, you know,
- 13:45Speaker 8: they're they're both like politicians. They're not gonna go They'll
- 13:48Speaker 8: speak around it, but they won't give you the details.
- 13:50Speaker 8: So I'm like, my guess, my question is like, where
- 13:53Speaker 8: are we in the deal? Have have Has Jerry or
- 13:56Speaker 8: Stephen actually presented a on paper here is offer this
- 14:00Speaker 8: much money, this much year is of course we're not
- 14:02Speaker 8: gonna know the details about the actual number of the years,
- 14:05Speaker 8: but have they've done that? Is Micah and his agent
- 14:08Speaker 8: looking at it? Or are we totally out of it?
- 14:11Speaker 8: So I guess that's my question, Like, you know, have
- 14:13Speaker 8: they gone through the proper channels? And my comment is this,
- 14:16Speaker 8: and I want to rewind one year back when we
- 14:18Speaker 8: were dealing with the CEBE situation, and you know, when
- 14:22Speaker 8: Jerry Jones had that interview with Stephen A. Smith, he says,
- 14:26Speaker 8: nobody is better.
- 14:27Speaker 6: Than me than this.
- 14:29Speaker 8: And while I give it, I give Jerry his credit.
- 14:31Speaker 8: He is a great business man. And I'm not even
- 14:33Speaker 8: gonna talk about the past thirty years because you don't
- 14:35Speaker 8: have to beating the dead horse. But you can't tell me,
- 14:38Speaker 8: even though I hate the Eagles, you can't Jerry can't
- 14:41Speaker 8: look in the mirror and say he has not done
- 14:44Speaker 8: better than Howie Roseman or whatever Rose his name is.
- 14:48Speaker 8: The Eagles GM, how they look or you know, even
- 14:53Speaker 8: though they're in the same boat with us, the Niners,
- 14:55Speaker 8: believe the Niners have made it further. The Rams. I
- 14:59Speaker 8: would do it, really trade their past ten even even
- 15:03Speaker 8: even the Niners because at least they've made two Super
- 15:05Speaker 8: Bowls and lost. I would literally trade the last ten
- 15:09Speaker 8: years for the Niners, the Rams, and the Eagles for
- 15:13Speaker 8: the for the faft Cowboys Sea. I can't see you
- 15:16Speaker 8: unless it's just pride or hubris, that they can't like
- 15:19Speaker 8: take some sort of you know, tits or details of that,
- 15:22Speaker 8: I mean, holding out having these players. I mean, as
- 15:26Speaker 8: far as runnings go, you gotta admit those other guys
- 15:28Speaker 8: have you know, at least done more. I mean, that's
- 15:30Speaker 8: that's my point, is this. I don't know, Jerry, you know,
- 15:33Speaker 8: maybe you know just oh she was you know, at
- 15:36Speaker 8: least look at that instead of you know, just thinking,
- 15:37Speaker 8: you know whatever. But yeah, those days are why I'm calling.
- 15:40Speaker 8: So I already got a little bit of a lamblion.
- 15:42Speaker 3: Just first call, and that you've got a lot of
- 15:44Speaker 3: stuff to to catch up on. I appreciate it. Thanks,
- 15:48Speaker 3: Thanks for the call, Antonio.
- 15:49Speaker 8: Call back. I'll try to call back later on in
- 15:52Speaker 8: the season.
- 15:53Speaker 3: Definitely, thank you. All Right, Lots lots of unpacked there.
- 15:57Speaker 3: You know, I just don't get into I don't get
- 16:02Speaker 3: into the other players and and and their their contracts
- 16:06Speaker 3: because it's hard enough keeping up with this team as
- 16:08Speaker 3: it is, and then I don't know the negotiations and
- 16:11Speaker 3: how far and how long it's gone. The only one
- 16:13Speaker 3: I've kind of heard of a little bit is obviously
- 16:15Speaker 3: Cincinnati Hendrickson. That's things dragging out, and that thing is
- 16:19Speaker 3: I think does have a direct effect on on the Cowboys.
- 16:23Speaker 3: Uh here with with with Michael Parsons too. To go
- 16:25Speaker 3: back to the question about Micah and have they gone
- 16:28Speaker 3: through all that steps? I mean, I just have a
- 16:32Speaker 3: hard time believing that they haven't talked. I just I
- 16:35Speaker 3: don't I'm not buying that one. You know, they haven't talked.
- 16:39Speaker 3: They don't know that hasn't been an offer. I think
- 16:42Speaker 3: I think there is an understanding of where things are,
- 16:46Speaker 3: with what each side is looking for. And I kind
- 16:51Speaker 3: of think that's what it was with DAK. I think
- 16:52Speaker 3: it's what it was with CD, and the Cowboys got
- 16:55Speaker 3: to that number, you know, But but Dak went down
- 17:00Speaker 3: on his numbers so surprisingly, you know, that didn't just
- 17:03Speaker 3: start at sixty And if you believe that, you're wrong.
- 17:06Speaker 3: It was higher than that. NCD didn't just start at
- 17:09Speaker 3: thirty four. It was it was higher than that, and
- 17:13Speaker 3: they had to get to that, and then as the
- 17:15Speaker 3: negotiations go on, then it was a new target number
- 17:18Speaker 3: for both sides, and then they finally finally got there.
- 17:21Speaker 3: So I don't know the whole deal. I know that
- 17:25Speaker 3: they want to go last. I know Micah's team wants
- 17:28Speaker 3: to be last, and right now Hendrickson is still out there.
- 17:34Speaker 3: Do I think that really affects the Cowboys. I don't
- 17:36Speaker 3: think it should. In fact, if I were, if I
- 17:41Speaker 3: was Micah's agent, I don't know if I would want
- 17:43Speaker 3: to wait for Hendrickson because what if he's down there
- 17:46Speaker 3: in the thirty five range or whatever, and he had
- 17:50Speaker 3: led the league in sacks last year. I don't know
- 17:52Speaker 3: if that's a great thing for that side to do,
- 17:54Speaker 3: because then that'll only let the cowboys say, well, well,
- 17:57Speaker 3: this is what the sack leader got, you know, so
- 18:00Speaker 3: if it's gonna have to be forty one point one,
- 18:02Speaker 3: you know, to be the highest, we know that that's
- 18:05Speaker 3: where it is. But I'm sure it's a little bit
- 18:07Speaker 3: more complicated than that, you know. I don't know all
- 18:09Speaker 3: of the details. None of us do. And it doesn't
- 18:11Speaker 3: sound like there's a ton of details to talk about.
- 18:13Speaker 3: All right, let's go to Lester in Minnesota. Lester, what's
- 18:16Speaker 3: up in.
- 18:18Speaker 5: Hey? Nick?
- 18:18Speaker 9: How you doing?
- 18:19Speaker 1: Man?
- 18:19Speaker 3: Good? Good? How are you? How are you?
- 18:22Speaker 9: I'm good man? And I just found that waiver wire,
- 18:26Speaker 9: not waiver wire, but my internet that we got some injuries, man,
- 18:31Speaker 9: cartons and guidance. Any more injuries I should know about?
- 18:37Speaker 3: Well, you mean the other seven, I can run down
- 18:42Speaker 3: the list. I'll do it. I'll do it when you're
- 18:44Speaker 3: when this call is over, I'll run all the lists.
- 18:48Speaker 3: And one of those nine is supposed to be coming
- 18:50Speaker 3: back soon. So it's getting getting better. But but yeah,
- 18:55Speaker 3: I mean I think to one guy's, you know, two
- 18:58Speaker 3: guys out four to six weeks, one guy out probably
- 19:00Speaker 3: for the whole season. I mean, we'll see, we'll see
- 19:03Speaker 3: Rob Jones. They're saying two to three months, but it's
- 19:07Speaker 3: broken bones in his neck. I have heard be back
- 19:12Speaker 3: sooner than that. But but you know, who knows, who knows?
- 19:16Speaker 3: But you know you got it, I mean ahead.
- 19:19Speaker 9: It's looking like we're having like a really physical training camp.
- 19:24Speaker 9: And that's good man.
- 19:25Speaker 3: One would think it, sir, does look that way. But
- 19:30Speaker 3: believe me, you believe me. This is not the taping
- 19:32Speaker 3: of the program too. Okay, this is not this is
- 19:35Speaker 3: not They're not hitting each other out there like that.
- 19:38Speaker 3: It's it doesn't look any different than what we've seen
- 19:41Speaker 3: hitting wise. It's just it's just bad luck. I guess
- 19:46Speaker 3: I'm not sure.
- 19:49Speaker 1: Okay, So what.
- 19:51Speaker 9: Do you think, man, what do you think so far
- 19:53Speaker 9: in the first week of training.
- 19:54Speaker 3: Well, it's it's just hard to not even talk about
- 19:57Speaker 3: the injuries. I mean, you you you'd like to think
- 19:58Speaker 3: they're getting good work in. And what I like is
- 20:01Speaker 3: the defense wins sometimes the offense wins. Sometimes that's what
- 20:04Speaker 3: you want in practice, you just don't want it one
- 20:06Speaker 3: way or the other. Both sides are looking pretty good now.
- 20:10Speaker 3: The offense is not getting the best look in the
- 20:12Speaker 3: world because Mike is not there. You can't tell me these,
- 20:14Speaker 3: you know, And so these offensive tackles aren't going up
- 20:18Speaker 3: against the absolute best pass rush that there they'll be
- 20:22Speaker 3: able to see during the season, which is good because
- 20:24Speaker 3: the offensive tackles are getting banged up there and they're
- 20:27Speaker 3: already down to their second and third team anyway. So
- 20:30Speaker 3: overall it's been good, it's been spirited. But but the
- 20:33Speaker 3: injuries are are dominating the storylines right now because every
- 20:37Speaker 3: single day it's becoming it's been someone else. Since they
- 20:40Speaker 3: put the pads on on Sunday, there's been four uh
- 20:45Speaker 3: really yeah, four significant injuries.
- 20:49Speaker 5: Wown's all I have.
- 20:52Speaker 9: All right, that's injury report basically.
- 20:55Speaker 3: Okay, well, have a good day. I'll run this down
- 20:57Speaker 3: here for your for you guys real quick. Thanks for
- 20:59Speaker 3: the call. All right, So injury wise, since since I've
- 21:04Speaker 3: kind of put this in order, and I don't really
- 21:05Speaker 3: don't mean to put this in a priority order, but
- 21:09Speaker 3: just are how significant? But you know, this is all
- 21:13Speaker 3: subject to opinion. But but Tyler Geiton, uh, we thought
- 21:17Speaker 3: was gonna be out for the season yesterday he had
- 21:19Speaker 3: a knee injury. That was the reports that that's what
- 21:22Speaker 3: the Cowboys were fearing. It turned out it was more
- 21:25Speaker 3: of a bone fracture in his knee. It still sounds
- 21:29Speaker 3: bad done it, but still four to six weeks is
- 21:31Speaker 3: the is the the timetable for him. But you gotta
- 21:34Speaker 3: remember this guy needs practice more than anyone. So to
- 21:37Speaker 3: think that he's come right back in and take over
- 21:41Speaker 3: that that seems hard to believe. So that that's a
- 21:43Speaker 3: tough injury for him at this time when he really
- 21:46Speaker 3: really needed to be out there. Rob Jones broken bones
- 21:50Speaker 3: in his neck. He's got a neck brace on. They're
- 21:54Speaker 3: saying two to three months. I bet you know, we'll
- 21:56Speaker 3: go to i R to return. I'd have a heart
- 22:00Speaker 3: our time thinking he could make it back this year.
- 22:02Speaker 3: But then again, who you know, who am I to
- 22:05Speaker 3: say that? But that that just sounds very very optimistic.
- 22:08Speaker 3: He's gonna be out for a while. Brevin span Ford
- 22:11Speaker 3: had a couple of really nice days at camp and
- 22:13Speaker 3: then he gets a high ankle sprain. He's in a
- 22:15Speaker 3: walking boot. I saw him rolling around in a cart
- 22:18Speaker 3: here on a little little scooter cart. So uh, he'll
- 22:23Speaker 3: be out, you know, a few weeks. Kayln Carson hypertension
- 22:28Speaker 3: in the knee. Four to six weeks. Terrence Steele had
- 22:30Speaker 3: an ankle injury. He should be headed back to practice.
- 22:33Speaker 3: They're being cautious with him. Deuce von hamstring Andrew Booth.
- 22:38Speaker 3: I believe it was a knee or an ankle for him,
- 22:40Speaker 3: jan Ye Thomas ankle, Paris Campbell with a foot ankle
- 22:45Speaker 3: injury as well. Those guys have been kind of in
- 22:47Speaker 3: and out of practice.
- 22:48Speaker 10: Uh.
- 22:49Speaker 3: Let's go to one caller before we go to break
- 22:51Speaker 3: Larry's in McAllen, Texas. Larry, what's up? How you good?
- 22:57Speaker 3: First time caller? Yes, sir, thanks for joining the show, Larry,
- 23:01Speaker 3: appreciate that.
- 23:03Speaker 1: Well'm I enjoy everything on Dallascowboys dot Com. So just
- 23:11Speaker 1: I really love it.
- 23:12Speaker 3: Oh, I appreciate that. Appreciate that. I hope, I hope
- 23:15Speaker 3: you love us the most.
- 23:17Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh yeah. Nick Eatman, you're you're you're you're
- 23:21Speaker 1: ahead of my you're ahead of my list on things.
- 23:23Speaker 1: I'll watch them and those things that you write on
- 23:27Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys dot Com.
- 23:29Speaker 3: I appreciate that. Hey, we have a we have a
- 23:31Speaker 3: strong team. In my opinion, we have a lot of
- 23:33Speaker 3: really good uh voices and and and in the shows.
- 23:37Speaker 3: I mean it's hard to keep up with all of it.
- 23:39Speaker 3: I know, you guys try your best, but man, we're
- 23:42Speaker 3: throwing different podcasts and stories up there is faster than
- 23:46Speaker 3: anybody for sure. So wait, what do you got, man?
- 23:51Speaker 3: What do you got for me?
- 23:53Speaker 1: Well, so I've watched Dallas Cowboys for years, I.
- 23:57Speaker 11: Mean since even the for Aikman, you know, and Danny
- 24:03Speaker 11: White and just different ones, and every team that I've
- 24:08Speaker 11: ever seen that has gone to the Super Bowl has
- 24:12Speaker 11: had excellent backups in areas. So so my my question.
- 24:17Speaker 1: For you is our corner back room may not look
- 24:22Speaker 1: the best with Diggs, without Digs, you know, with Diggs
- 24:26Speaker 1: gone and Bland kind of all nursing injuries. So do
- 24:31Speaker 1: you think that super Bowl winning teams had great backups
- 24:36Speaker 1: from the backups being so great or from the coaching
- 24:39Speaker 1: staff able to coach them up?
- 24:44Speaker 3: Well, that's a great question. And I and you know,
- 24:47Speaker 3: I'm I've been saying this a lot late lately. You know,
- 24:50Speaker 3: the the both both things can be true. You know
- 24:55Speaker 3: what I think it is is it's a great It's
- 24:57Speaker 3: a system, and it usually starts with the coaches and
- 24:59Speaker 3: has the guys you know in place to just step
- 25:03Speaker 3: in when there is an injury. I know, Mike McCarthy's
- 25:06Speaker 3: teams with Green Bay. That the team that won the
- 25:08Speaker 3: Super Bowl at Super Bowl what forty five at at
- 25:12Speaker 3: and T Stadium. I mean, they had seventeen injuries. Seventeen
- 25:15Speaker 3: guys went to ir that year. Now it wasn't Aaron Rodgers.
- 25:18Speaker 3: I mean that wasn't one of them. But they did
- 25:21Speaker 3: have a lot of injuries and they overcame adversity. And
- 25:24Speaker 3: I think that does start with a coaching staff and
- 25:27Speaker 3: a system, a support system there where guys come in
- 25:30Speaker 3: and they know exactly what's being asked for them. But
- 25:34Speaker 3: I will say this, if you lose you know, I mean,
- 25:38Speaker 3: if you lose the wrong player at the wrong time,
- 25:40Speaker 3: it's going to affect you. I mean, I know that
- 25:42Speaker 3: the Patriots went to the playoffs what ten out of
- 25:44Speaker 3: eleven years or something like that, and Tom Brady was
- 25:47Speaker 3: hurt in the year that they didn't go. I mean,
- 25:49Speaker 3: that's not a coincidence to me. So it's a little
- 25:51Speaker 3: bit of both for me. You can't suffer too many
- 25:54Speaker 3: of great players injuries to those great players.
- 26:01Speaker 1: So how do you feel like our coaches are coaching
- 26:04Speaker 1: them right now? As far as just the backups, I mean,
- 26:07Speaker 1: what have you seen from the backups.
- 26:10Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I think you have some some pretty
- 26:14Speaker 3: good depth there at some at some positions. But it's again,
- 26:20Speaker 3: it's really tough to tell. Right now, they've only had
- 26:22Speaker 3: one or they've had two padded practices. They're not even
- 26:25Speaker 3: really tackling each other, so it's it's so tough to see.
- 26:29Speaker 3: You know, I say this all the time. Is the
- 26:31Speaker 3: linebacker making the play because he went out into the
- 26:34Speaker 3: flat and he met Javonte Williams on the screen pass?
- 26:38Speaker 3: Did he make the play or did he miss the tackle?
- 26:40Speaker 3: And did the running back go fifteen yards? Or did
- 26:43Speaker 3: the running back go fifteen yards and then fumble? I mean,
- 26:45Speaker 3: like it. We're doing the best we can to evaluate,
- 26:48Speaker 3: but man, it's so tough to tell until you really
- 26:50Speaker 3: get in there and and we're just kind of speculating, Yeah, yeah,
- 26:54Speaker 3: these guys look pretty good. You know, at times the
- 26:57Speaker 3: receivers look really good. Well, are they good? Or is
- 27:00Speaker 3: the cornerbacks you know injuries, you know, up to ten
- 27:04Speaker 3: to fifteen injuries and they're not. I mean, they're about
- 27:06Speaker 3: to play Chris Beam out there at corner. So I mean,
- 27:08Speaker 3: I'm just saying, it's just tough to evaluate it he's
- 27:10Speaker 3: back pedaling right now, he's ready to roll. You understand
- 27:14Speaker 3: what I'm saying. It's just that, like it's just tough
- 27:16Speaker 3: to get put your finger on exactly what you're seeing,
- 27:20Speaker 3: you know, And and that's and I don't want to
- 27:21Speaker 3: dodge the question, but I don't want to get too
- 27:24Speaker 3: ahead of it. And I'm it's annoying when you see
- 27:26Speaker 3: and there's people that out here, they do it. They
- 27:28Speaker 3: got it all broken down on who's doing what. And
- 27:30Speaker 3: this guy's having a great camp. I mean, like it's
- 27:33Speaker 3: it's still early and it's still tough to tell.
- 27:36Speaker 1: So you're saying time will tell.
- 27:38Speaker 3: Time will tell, Time will tell. It always does, it
- 27:40Speaker 3: always does. But I mean, if you want to if
- 27:43Speaker 3: you're one of those and people are out there, they
- 27:44Speaker 3: want to buy into these these guys. There's bloggers, there's
- 27:48Speaker 3: there's podcasters that are out here and they're taking notes
- 27:50Speaker 3: and they've got their top ten players and all that
- 27:53Speaker 3: sounds good, but trust me, you get to the pre
- 27:56Speaker 3: first preseason game, and and and a guy that's been
- 27:59Speaker 3: having that outstanding camp, like Jayden Blues considered to have
- 28:02Speaker 3: an outstanding camp, I mean, he hasn't been tackled but
- 28:05Speaker 3: you know, if he fumbles one time in that Rams game,
- 28:08Speaker 3: I mean, he's not going to be having an outstanding camp,
- 28:10Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So we know this and
- 28:13Speaker 3: time will tell, and there's some guys that were really
- 28:15Speaker 3: really excited to see when the pads come on, not
- 28:18Speaker 3: just in that game, but also when the Rams come
- 28:20Speaker 3: in first scrimmage. I think we'll be able to tell
- 28:21Speaker 3: a little bit more there. I mean a one day practice,
- 28:23Speaker 3: not really scrimmage, but a one day practice. All right, Larry, Well,
- 28:29Speaker 3: thank you for the call. Really good to hear from you.
- 28:30Speaker 3: Larry from McCallan, Texas, first time caller. Make sure and

- 31:17Speaker 3: Oh yeah yeah, and I wasn't lying. Huh No.
- 31:23Speaker 14: I'm just glad you're still going strong because I enjoy
- 31:25Speaker 14: your insight. I've been following you since the break, and
- 31:27Speaker 14: I know you're doing your own thing, but I love
- 31:29Speaker 14: the show. You're pretty non so keep at it, keep
- 31:31Speaker 14: doing great job.
- 31:32Speaker 3: I appreciate that you've called in before, right, we didn't
- 31:35Speaker 3: get a first time caller here. I know that you've called.
- 31:37Speaker 14: I think I've called one time when you've ready first started,
- 31:42Speaker 14: but this is probably my second time.
- 31:44Speaker 3: Awesome, awesome, So do you are you coming out here?
- 31:46Speaker 3: Are you? Have you already been out to camp?
- 31:49Speaker 14: You know, I was out at the first date and
- 31:51Speaker 14: I actually want tickets to tomorrow.
- 31:53Speaker 1: I'm a VIP tomorrow.
- 31:54Speaker 3: All right, we'll holler at me. Sure.
- 31:58Speaker 14: My question for you is in to the two new
- 32:01Speaker 14: guys and what you've seen so far. What kind of
- 32:03Speaker 14: impact do you think Sanborn and Murray and how they've
- 32:06Speaker 14: been looking at our defense?
- 32:08Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I just talked about how it's always
- 32:12Speaker 3: it's always tough to tell, like just every how great
- 32:16Speaker 3: everybody's doing. Linebackers one of those positions where awareness is
- 32:20Speaker 3: the number one thing that you that you want to
- 32:23Speaker 3: see right now in practice because Kenneth Murray and Sanmour
- 32:27Speaker 3: and they're both really physical players that they've both had
- 32:29Speaker 3: tackles seasons over one hundred, so they they can they're
- 32:34Speaker 3: not afraid to get out of it and get get
- 32:36Speaker 3: guys to the ground. What we're seeing right now is
- 32:38Speaker 3: just their ability to get into the hole and make
- 32:41Speaker 3: the play. What I like about both of them that
- 32:43Speaker 3: I've seen and Murray. Murray missed some time because of
- 32:47Speaker 3: the birth of a child, so he went to go back.
- 32:50Speaker 3: I believe he went back to Dallas. But uh, the
- 32:54Speaker 3: thing with both of them that I've seen is that
- 32:56Speaker 3: they're not just tacklers. They are guys that can They
- 32:58Speaker 3: can cover down the field, and that's that's obviously huge.
- 33:01Speaker 3: You just don't want to be on the wrong end
- 33:04Speaker 3: of a mismatch and you know, against the tight end
- 33:06Speaker 3: or whatever. This team has pretty good tight ends and
- 33:09Speaker 3: good slot receivers. So from what I've seen so far
- 33:11Speaker 3: out of both of them, I've seen some good coverage
- 33:14Speaker 3: down the field. We know they can hit and tackle,
- 33:16Speaker 3: but but how they're covering is pretty good right now.
- 33:20Speaker 5: That sounds really awesome.
- 33:22Speaker 14: I hope I Ryan backers getting back up back up
- 33:24Speaker 14: the strength away where you used to seeing them get.
- 33:26Speaker 1: Hit those tackles, cover those.
- 33:28Speaker 14: Guys down and said, and keep keep doing a great show.

- 34:35Speaker 10: Hey, First of all, and I know I don't have to.
- 34:37Speaker 10: But first of all, I apologize I haven't been calling in.
- 34:39Speaker 10: I'm not a big off season guy, like I was
- 34:41Speaker 10: telling Chris, Man, I got a lot of other days
- 34:43Speaker 10: going on and stuff, and you know, maybe that I
- 34:45Speaker 10: don't know.
- 34:45Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 34:46Speaker 10: I don't think I'll make some less of a fan.
- 34:47Speaker 10: But you know, when when as soon as I see
- 34:49Speaker 10: the Cowboys are playing and the game start, not the games,
- 34:52Speaker 10: where the practices start going, it's in my veins.
- 34:54Speaker 1: Bro, I can't I can't stay away.
- 34:56Speaker 10: I love it so much, man, I'm just so pumped up.
- 34:58Speaker 10: And I appreciate, like I tell you year, tell Chris
- 35:00Speaker 10: every year, appreciate what you guys are doing here.
- 35:02Speaker 1: Bro.
- 35:03Speaker 10: Like I've never been ever been to training camp before,
- 35:05Speaker 10: and it always just seemed like a dream to me.
- 35:07Speaker 8: But like you guys.
- 35:08Speaker 10: Putting this song along with Dylan and Irene coordinating the
- 35:12Speaker 10: page and everything just kind of happened, man, And like
- 35:14Speaker 10: now I'm actually gonna be able to go, and it's
- 35:16Speaker 10: genuinely a dream come true.
- 35:17Speaker 12: Man.
- 35:17Speaker 1: I thank you guys.
- 35:18Speaker 10: I cannot thank you guys enough.
- 35:19Speaker 3: First and foremost, that's awesome, that's really cool. Yeah, I'm
- 35:22Speaker 3: glad you are able to come do that and uh,
- 35:25Speaker 3: and especially getting out of the I say, getting out
- 35:27Speaker 3: of the heat for where you are and it's, oh,
- 35:29Speaker 3: get me wrong, man, it's it's still pretty hot, but
- 35:32Speaker 3: but not like what you guys are dealing with all
- 35:35Speaker 3: the time. All right, Well, well what you got on
- 35:38Speaker 3: your mind? What you're thinking of?
- 35:40Speaker 10: Well, I wanted to call him, man, I just want
- 35:41Speaker 10: to talk about uh. I guess they're calling them GP
- 35:43Speaker 10: three now, George Pickens. I want to talk about, like
- 35:47Speaker 10: just his attitude, man. Like I've listened to like a
- 35:49Speaker 10: lot of interviews that he's had and like the little
- 35:50Speaker 10: press conferences that he's had, and I don't.
- 35:52Speaker 7: Know, man, I kind of like his attitude.
- 35:53Speaker 10: I know a lot of people are kind of worried about, uh,
- 35:55Speaker 10: you know, his attitude and how he acted.
- 35:57Speaker 7: But so far I enjoy it.
- 35:58Speaker 10: I mean, he looks great on the field.
- 36:00Speaker 1: He you know, fits the mold.
- 36:01Speaker 10: I can't wait to see more of him, CD Deck,
- 36:04Speaker 10: you know, turfing everybody.
- 36:05Speaker 1: You know what I mean. It's over getting involved.
- 36:06Speaker 10: Like he super excited, super excited. Second thing, I know
- 36:09Speaker 10: a lot of people are worried about the injuries, and
- 36:11Speaker 10: you know me, I always try to bring a positive
- 36:12Speaker 10: spin on things. Hopefully the injury bug is biting a
- 36:15Speaker 10: little too early. Hopefully they go ahead and the injury
- 36:18Speaker 10: bug bites enough early in the season, and then we
- 36:21Speaker 10: can finish off strong, you know what I mean. So
- 36:22Speaker 10: that's my hope, you know what I mean. Obviously I
- 36:25Speaker 10: can't tell the future it over he.
- 36:26Speaker 5: Can, but hopefully that's what it is.
- 36:27Speaker 12: Man.
- 36:28Speaker 10: But now, man, I'm back. Like I said, I told Chris,
- 36:30Speaker 10: I wasn't trying to stick it to the man or
- 36:32Speaker 10: take a height or anything like that, you know what
- 36:34Speaker 10: I mean, like some other people maybe doing. But I'm here, Man,
- 36:37Speaker 10: I can't wait. I'm so pumped up. I'm out of
- 36:39Speaker 10: breast just walking back and forth in my office right now.
- 36:41Speaker 10: I'm so pumped up.
- 36:42Speaker 1: Man, I can't wait to see you guys.
- 36:43Speaker 3: Awesome.
- 36:44Speaker 5: Man.
- 36:44Speaker 3: We look forward to it as well, and thank you
- 36:46Speaker 3: for the call, and we'll see you out here when
- 36:48Speaker 3: you get out here. But you know, nobody has to
- 36:51Speaker 3: ever apologize for how they fan, especially in the middle
- 36:55Speaker 3: of the summer. Heck, we don't even have shows and
- 36:58Speaker 3: from like mid June to the start of camp, so
- 37:02Speaker 3: I mean we take everyone takes a break. You don't
- 37:04Speaker 3: have to apologize for alf and you call or whatever,
- 37:08Speaker 3: even if you don't call during the season, even if
- 37:10Speaker 3: you do your thing, we want you to listen. We
- 37:12Speaker 3: want you to be part of it, and we want
- 37:13Speaker 3: you to call. But you know, it's it's that's what
- 37:17Speaker 3: makes I'll say this, that's what I have to realize
- 37:21Speaker 3: when I think about my job and what I have
- 37:23Speaker 3: because I'm a fan too, and I get to do
- 37:26Speaker 3: this every day. And when that's why you you you
- 37:29Speaker 3: don't do it every day, but but when you when
- 37:32Speaker 3: you can stop and think and slow down and say,
- 37:34Speaker 3: all right, is this really that big a deal? Calm down,
- 37:36Speaker 3: Look what you get to do. Look what your job
- 37:39Speaker 3: allows you to do. Because there's people like sergeants do
- 37:42Speaker 3: like all these people that are calling that try to
- 37:44Speaker 3: squeeze in their Cowboys coverage there they're you know, watching
- 37:48Speaker 3: the podcast. They have to squeeze that into their life
- 37:51Speaker 3: with their job and with their family and everything, and
- 37:55Speaker 3: just to do this. And so that's why I don't
- 37:57Speaker 3: ever try to lose sight on what we get to
- 37:59Speaker 3: do for our job and we get to provide this
- 38:02Speaker 3: because the day that stops being fun is the day
- 38:04Speaker 3: I need to hang it out. But you know, when
- 38:06Speaker 3: Jerry made that comment in the press conference, you know,
- 38:10Speaker 3: he made several, but the one that stuck out to
- 38:12Speaker 3: me was that he said, I haven't worked in thirty
- 38:14Speaker 3: eight years. With thirty five years, I believe that I
- 38:18Speaker 3: can relate to that. This doesn't really work. There's days
- 38:21Speaker 3: that are better than others. But trust me, being out
- 38:24Speaker 3: here and being able to talk to you guys and
- 38:26Speaker 3: do this show and work with Chris and work with
- 38:28Speaker 3: my team that I have, it's really not work, you know,
- 38:31Speaker 3: I say, his work is really not though it's awesome.
- 38:34Speaker 3: Oh my lord, I'm excited about this one. Here we go.
- 38:39Speaker 3: I didn't even see it pop up. Let's do this.
- 38:43Speaker 3: What's up man?
- 38:45Speaker 5: Oh light?
- 38:46Speaker 15: Oh light?
- 38:48Speaker 3: Rually with kids bleed?
- 38:50Speaker 7: Now, dude, you got a coach out there on that
- 38:53Speaker 7: field that's got a kid and play haircut and yeah,
- 38:55Speaker 7: every single time I watched a highlight that phone popped
- 38:59Speaker 7: in my head. I can't help it.
- 39:00Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you know you know how they say, nobody
- 39:03Speaker 3: really this person needs no introduction. That's why I just
- 39:07Speaker 3: went to you, man. I just went to you. Let's
- 39:10Speaker 3: go though. If anyone's then we have the first time callers.
- 39:12Speaker 3: We got some first time listeners, so I'll for them.
- 39:16Speaker 3: I'll play the game Randy and text he can I Randy,
- 39:19Speaker 3: what is up? And and before you go any further,
- 39:23Speaker 3: give us an update of what's going on with you?
- 39:26Speaker 7: All right? Sounds good. I do want to ask this
- 39:30Speaker 7: much though, I'm gonna I'm gonna make this my last
- 39:32Speaker 7: update unless something serious happens, because I don't I don't
- 39:35Speaker 7: want to wear it then on everybody with you know what.
- 39:37Speaker 3: I mean, I get it, but you know what we care?
- 39:40Speaker 3: We care. I know, I know our family. You're a
- 39:43Speaker 3: captain on this team, on the all storyline team, and
- 39:45Speaker 3: there's so many people that that were reaching out and
- 39:48Speaker 3: had their thoughts and prayers for you. So if we
- 39:51Speaker 3: can do that, I respect what you're saying, and I
- 39:53Speaker 3: get it because you don't want to make it about you.
- 39:55Speaker 3: But for a second, do us a favor and filing
- 39:59Speaker 3: all right.
- 39:59Speaker 7: So, so for since the last time I called, I've
- 40:01Speaker 7: had two surgeries and a month and a half of chemo.
- 40:06Speaker 7: I still have one more surgery and another month and
- 40:09Speaker 7: a half of chemo, and and I'm gonna say now
- 40:12Speaker 7: that it is absolutely the toughest thing I've ever gone
- 40:16Speaker 7: through my wife. It's pre top so it's just makes
- 40:19Speaker 7: you want to quit right in the middle of it.
- 40:21Speaker 8: I'm not gonna lie, but I'm.
- 40:22Speaker 7: Gonna pushtood dude. I'm tougher than the Indian's foot, so uh,
- 40:26Speaker 7: I'm gonna get through this. But yeah, So in total
- 40:30Speaker 7: three there will be three surgeries and three months worth
- 40:33Speaker 7: of chemo after that. I hope I'm back to my
- 40:36Speaker 7: good old Steff again.
- 40:40Speaker 3: I thought I heard them all, but I have not
- 40:42Speaker 3: heard that one. And that's we don't need to repeat it.
- 40:45Speaker 7: What's that different than the Indians?
- 40:48Speaker 3: That's good? I like, I get it. No, I get it.
- 40:55Speaker 3: Let me ask you this real quick though, ask you
- 40:57Speaker 3: a question. My mom's pretty good cooking.
- 40:59Speaker 5: She oh yeah, yeah.
- 41:02Speaker 7: I enjoyed every good of it. It made me want
- 41:04Speaker 7: to call her back and say, hey, what else you got?
- 41:07Speaker 3: Oh, don't don't do it. She will. I know she'll
- 41:10Speaker 3: be here. Randy from Texarcana, Arkansas. My mother lives in
- 41:14Speaker 3: texar Canada, Texas, and she's reached out, went over there
- 41:17Speaker 3: actually and got some brought some food and met your
- 41:19Speaker 3: family and stuff like that a few uh a few
- 41:21Speaker 3: months ago, and and and was texted she texted me
- 41:24Speaker 3: now too long ago and gave me an update on you.
- 41:27Speaker 3: So anyways, but we're so glad that you called.
- 41:29Speaker 7: She actually texted me while I was at chemo to
- 41:32Speaker 7: let me know your show it started, and I was like,
- 41:34Speaker 7: that was awesome.
- 41:35Speaker 3: That was awesome. She's always she's always going to be
- 41:37Speaker 3: a mom, you know what I mean? Like, yeah, yeah, oh,
- 41:41Speaker 3: sorry about that. I hope the chemo goes well. Just
- 41:43Speaker 3: want you to know, though, my son's show is starting.
- 41:45Speaker 3: If you want to jump in, I'm just just getting
- 41:48Speaker 3: shout out, shout out to my mother Camille and and
- 41:52Speaker 3: watch all right, Randy, let's go, we'll talk talk to me.
- 41:56Speaker 3: What do you got?
- 41:56Speaker 1: All right?
- 41:57Speaker 7: So I hope I'm not stepping on any of that
- 42:00Speaker 7: other calls. What they may have brought up. I hadn't
- 42:02Speaker 7: been able to listen, but uh, backup quarterback situation. Now,
- 42:06Speaker 7: I understand. We don't know what the coaches are telling
- 42:09Speaker 7: these guys. The fact that he tucks and runs so
- 42:12Speaker 7: much and won't make the throw. They may be telling
- 42:15Speaker 7: him to work on that. That might be something that's
- 42:17Speaker 7: actually planned, we don't know, but who it feels like
- 42:24Speaker 7: it feels like he doesn't see somebody, he's just going
- 42:27Speaker 7: to take off running, which that's you know.
- 42:29Speaker 3: It's not always the past thing exactly.
- 42:32Speaker 7: I mean, if he cuts out for an eighty guard
- 42:34Speaker 7: touchdown in the middle of the game, the winning forest,
- 42:36Speaker 7: we're gonna love it.
- 42:37Speaker 3: But with that being said, were.
- 42:40Speaker 7: The chances they put a call to, say, like a
- 42:43Speaker 7: Cleveland Browns that's got several low draft pick high potential
- 42:48Speaker 7: quarterbacks back there, that they could maybe make a swap
- 42:51Speaker 7: floor or something like that. Do you do you think
- 42:53Speaker 7: that's on the horizon or do you think they're going
- 42:56Speaker 7: to give this guy every chance to learn? Because I
- 42:58Speaker 7: do understand the backstory of him not having that much
- 43:01Speaker 7: playing time.
- 43:02Speaker 3: I get that. You know, us mere.
- 43:04Speaker 7: Mortals, we couldn't go out there and do what he's
- 43:06Speaker 7: doing right now, so you know, we we do need
- 43:09Speaker 7: to at least kind of cut him some slack and
- 43:11Speaker 7: let the guy learn. But you know, it's a wind
- 43:15Speaker 7: now type of thing. And so I didn't know what
- 43:18Speaker 7: you thought about then making some moves on the on
- 43:20Speaker 7: the back of quarterback. And that's not all I got.
- 43:24Speaker 7: Everybody else is covering everything pretty good.
- 43:26Speaker 3: Yeah, well, this that's a this is a good topic.
- 43:28Speaker 3: That's something I kind of wanted to talk about too,
- 43:30Speaker 3: so uh as always Randy, Uh you you you're coming through.
- 43:35Speaker 3: You you're bringing bringing the heat. And we're so glad
- 43:38Speaker 3: that that you called.
- 43:39Speaker 12: Man.
- 43:39Speaker 3: I know you don't want to make it about you both,
- 43:41Speaker 3: but when I saw that pop up, it was the
- 43:43Speaker 3: best thing I've seen today really at camp. I'm so
- 43:46Speaker 3: that's awesome. Yeah, so, well, you know, I got love
- 43:48Speaker 3: for you guys, all our brothers.
- 43:50Speaker 7: It's cool and Nick and this is not me trying
- 43:53Speaker 7: to I don't know what the word with it, but

- 43:59Speaker 7: feel like y'all my guys, like y'all my buddies. And
- 44:02Speaker 7: then I'll watch my phone and I'll see you sitting
- 44:05Speaker 7: there interviewing like you know, uh, mister Jones there, Stephen Jones.
- 44:09Speaker 7: And and it's it's cool to know that I can
- 44:13Speaker 7: set in chit chat with somebody that can also set
- 44:15Speaker 7: in chick chat to the people that I would love
- 44:17Speaker 7: the chit chat with.
- 44:18Speaker 3: You know.
- 44:19Speaker 7: It's just so it's pretty cool on our into guys.

- 44:25Speaker 3: you for the thanks for calling in, Randy, and call

- 44:30Speaker 3: what you got going on. We're all gonna be we're
- 44:31Speaker 3: pulling out, and thanks for letting us know.
- 44:35Speaker 7: All right, Yes, and one more thing, and one more
- 44:37Speaker 7: thing real quick. I know that I'm the only captain
- 44:40Speaker 7: that's not going to show up there. Uh, there might
- 44:43Speaker 7: be a surprise, and that's all I'm gonna tell Goodness.
- 44:47Speaker 7: Might be a little surprised with that, that's all I'm
- 44:49Speaker 7: gonna get.
- 44:50Speaker 3: Hey, I like surprises if they're good with you know what,

- 45:02Speaker 3: All right, thanks so much for the call. That's awesome
- 45:04Speaker 3: to hear. I love hearing from Randy. You know I
- 45:07Speaker 3: say that about surprises. I mean, like three, three mornings
- 45:10Speaker 3: in a row, I've looked at my phone and and
- 45:13Speaker 3: there's been a surprise. You know, one of them was,
- 45:16Speaker 3: and and they're not. You know, some of them are
- 45:18Speaker 3: good for the fans or some of them aren't so good.
- 45:21Speaker 3: But for me in my position, they all mean get
- 45:25Speaker 3: your ass up and start working. That's what they all mean.
- 45:28Speaker 3: It doesn't matter if it's the greatest news ever, you know,
- 45:32Speaker 3: I mean, you better start working because your website needs
- 45:35Speaker 3: to have this on it whatever it is. And it
- 45:38Speaker 3: was you know Rob Jones and Jake ferguson the other
- 45:42Speaker 3: day with signing and Kayln Carpson this morning and signing
- 45:46Speaker 3: another corner as well. So it's been one thing after another.
- 45:50Speaker 3: But it's great. Great to hear from Randy. It's awesome.
- 45:53Speaker 3: Let's keep it going here, Angel and Beaumont. Angel, what's up?
- 45:58Speaker 6: Hey, what's going on?
- 45:59Speaker 3: How are you doing now?
- 46:01Speaker 1: Man?
- 46:01Speaker 15: Uh A lot long time listening, man, It's kind of
- 46:04Speaker 15: hard to get through these lines.
- 46:05Speaker 3: Man, but this time.
- 46:10Speaker 15: Yeah, that's my first time honestly getting in. But I
- 46:13Speaker 15: you know, I go back, I go back, way way
- 46:15Speaker 15: back at the uh y'all in like the small little studio.
- 46:19Speaker 3: Oh yeah yeah, way back over.
- 46:23Speaker 5: Yeah with us.
- 46:26Speaker 15: Oh yeah, for sure, man. I got to have my
- 46:27Speaker 15: Cowboys content. So I mean it must be nice man,
- 46:33Speaker 15: as far as Jay to say, you know, haven't had
- 46:35Speaker 15: to work, because like I mean, with the lack of
- 46:39Speaker 15: you know, most of us who have to, you know,
- 46:40Speaker 15: try to keep our job. We got to perform, right
- 46:43Speaker 15: and you know, we we we stay up on our
- 46:45Speaker 15: what we have to do to perform, and we work
- 46:48Speaker 15: at our craft. So just to have the money to
- 46:52Speaker 15: spend it and uh just build the money. And he
- 46:54Speaker 15: did a resting job as far as uh the finance
- 46:57Speaker 15: or concern, but as far as like working as a
- 46:59Speaker 15: gen him and having to perform, that hasn't been you know,
- 47:03Speaker 15: it hasn't been what he's been able to do. So
- 47:05Speaker 15: he has a real good security on that end. I
- 47:09Speaker 15: wanted to just kind of talk about the Jake Ferguson thing.
- 47:11Speaker 15: I was just wondering, like, why wasn't I mean, you've
- 47:14Speaker 15: had all these issues with these contracts, and you know,
- 47:17Speaker 15: this guy gets hurt. This Micah. You know, we only
- 47:19Speaker 15: had six games. Dad, he paid them and he went
- 47:23Speaker 15: and got hurt. But none of that, you know, came
- 47:25Speaker 15: to fruition with you know, Jake Ferguson. And I get it,
- 47:28Speaker 15: Jake came to the table.
- 47:29Speaker 8: Was willing to give them a deal.
- 47:32Speaker 15: But I just think that you know, the certain tier
- 47:33Speaker 15: level of type of guys when you're talking about your
- 47:36Speaker 15: franchise quarterbacks, when you're talking about guys like CD and Micah,
- 47:40Speaker 15: you know, those type of things should shouldn't even be
- 47:42Speaker 15: questioned if anything. You know, it's it's kind of getting
- 47:46Speaker 15: the allocating that money. It almost makes you nervous to it.
- 47:49Speaker 15: You know, paid guys like Jake because you you see
- 47:53Speaker 15: how penny pension they are with your superstars, and so
- 47:57Speaker 15: it's almost like when they pay Jake, it's kind of like, well,
- 48:00Speaker 15: they're just gonna use this contract as an excuse is
- 48:02Speaker 15: to not give your money. You know, give a tighter
- 48:04Speaker 15: smith the hard time or sick even like a Brandon
- 48:07Speaker 15: Aubrey a hard song. But you know this one's come.
- 48:11Speaker 15: You know, know your thoughts on that?
- 48:13Speaker 3: All right? Well I got some. I got thoughts on
- 48:16Speaker 3: both of those things that you said. So now that's
- 48:19Speaker 3: that's good. I appreciate that. Appreciate it man, all right, Angel,
- 48:23Speaker 3: And also for I got so caught up in the
- 48:25Speaker 3: call with Randy that I kind of forgot to talk
- 48:27Speaker 3: about the backup quarterback and Joe Milton. I do want
- 48:30Speaker 3: to make sure and do that real quick though. Let's
- 48:32Speaker 3: talk about what Angel said two things, the Ferguson deal.
- 48:38Speaker 3: I first of all, everything's in tears, like you said,
- 48:44Speaker 3: think of it like like the stack of bills that
- 48:46Speaker 3: you've got, you know, rents there, or you know, the
- 48:49Speaker 3: car payments there. You know that one, you know you
- 48:52Speaker 3: got to do that one, But some of the other
- 48:53Speaker 3: little ones here, do you pay those first? Do you
- 48:56Speaker 3: get those knocked out of the way, do you you
- 48:58Speaker 3: know what I mean? Like like do you just do
- 49:00Speaker 3: it all the I mean, maybe that's not the best analogy,
- 49:03Speaker 3: because you know, we're some bills could be tougher for
- 49:06Speaker 3: some people than others. And then Jerry can can definitely
- 49:09Speaker 3: do this. Jerry's trying to do this the right way.
- 49:11Speaker 3: I just don't think the Ferguson deal gets in the
- 49:13Speaker 3: way of anything. I don't think it gets in the
- 49:15Speaker 3: way of of the Mica thing. I think there's there's
- 49:18Speaker 3: a couple of snags there that they're trying to figure out. Now,
- 49:20Speaker 3: the Tyler Smith snag, I mean that one at this
- 49:25Speaker 3: point could be more on Tyler's in It could be
- 49:30Speaker 3: you know, there's a there's a price for these all
- 49:34Speaker 3: pro guards. Now what's happening here with this team? Where's
- 49:37Speaker 3: the injuries that we're seeing on offense? Tackle? So what
- 49:41Speaker 3: are the options the Cowboys have for tackle? They could
- 49:45Speaker 3: go with what they have and or they could always
- 49:48Speaker 3: kick out Tyler Smith to tackle. Don't you think that
- 49:51Speaker 3: agent knows that. Don't you think the agent knows the
- 49:54Speaker 3: last thing that they want to see is a big
- 49:56Speaker 3: deal that the Cowboys signed Tyler Smith. Lock him up
- 49:59Speaker 3: as the highest paid guard or one of the highest
- 50:02Speaker 3: paid guards, and then guess what they move him to tackle.
- 50:05Speaker 3: Now he's an underpaid tackle. If he goes out there,
- 50:09Speaker 3: they know that they're working on that as well. There
- 50:11Speaker 3: there's there's two sides to this, So that's what one
- 50:15Speaker 3: of the there's a hold ups to everything, you know
- 50:16Speaker 3: what I mean. So that's that's part of it. You
- 50:18Speaker 3: said something else too about you know, Jerry said I
- 50:22Speaker 3: haven't worked and whatever, and you kind of made it
- 50:25Speaker 3: sound like, well, the working class people. You know, that's
- 50:29Speaker 3: nice for him to say, we're over here working and
- 50:31Speaker 3: we do our job and we get the job done,
- 50:33Speaker 3: and he hasn't done that. You know, that's fair if
- 50:37Speaker 3: if that's the case for everyone, you know what I mean,
- 50:40Speaker 3: whatever your job is. Just so if you want to
- 50:45Speaker 3: make that argument, then make sure that you have one
- 50:49Speaker 3: lawyer of the year, you know, of the of the
- 50:53Speaker 3: of the of the nation. You're you're the top sales agent,
- 50:59Speaker 3: you know in the nation, or or you're the best
- 51:02Speaker 3: doctor you've won best doctor in the world, or chiropractor
- 51:05Speaker 3: or whatever. It is the best of your craft, because
- 51:08Speaker 3: that's what you're saying. I mean, just so everyone's clear,
- 51:10Speaker 3: what you're saying is is, Jerry, you haven't got the
- 51:14Speaker 3: job done because you haven't won a super Bowl in
- 51:16Speaker 3: twenty nine years. You did it three times, but you
- 51:19Speaker 3: haven't won the Super Bowl in twenty nine years. You
- 51:20Speaker 3: haven't been to the championship game. And know every other
- 51:23Speaker 3: team in the NFC has done it at least once
- 51:25Speaker 3: in that time. You haven't done it. You haven't been
- 51:27Speaker 3: the best, so therefore you haven't done a good job.
- 51:29Speaker 5: So just know that.
- 51:30Speaker 3: If that's what you're saying, and that's your argument, fine,
- 51:33Speaker 3: but don't come back and say, well, we do the
- 51:36Speaker 3: same thing. If you haven't won an award that says
- 51:38Speaker 3: I'm the best of my job and in the war,
- 51:41Speaker 3: in the whole country, the best you know, whatever that is,
- 51:45Speaker 3: the best chef doesn't matter, best car salesman, went I
- 51:50Speaker 3: win all these awards. If you haven't done that, then
- 51:52Speaker 3: don't don't put that same comparison out there, because that's
- 51:54Speaker 3: what you're doing. You're blaming Jerry Jones because they haven't
- 51:57Speaker 3: been absolute elite and that is the standard. I get it,
- 52:02Speaker 3: he gets it, We all get that, but I just
- 52:05Speaker 3: don't like. I don't like when I hear that, Like,
- 52:08Speaker 3: you know, they've sucked or they haven't done a good job.
- 52:10Speaker 3: They haven't been the best in the world in twenty
- 52:13Speaker 3: nine years. And if you've done that in your job, great,
- 52:16Speaker 3: and you can maybe have that complaint, but I doubt
- 52:18Speaker 3: it that that's the case for everyone. Let me talk
- 52:20Speaker 3: about Joe Milton. Real quick answer Randy's question. I don't
- 52:24Speaker 3: think he's being asked to take the ball down and run.
- 52:27Speaker 3: I think they can see he can run the ball.
- 52:29Speaker 3: He can run. There's more to it than that. They
- 52:33Speaker 3: want to see him process. They want to see him
- 52:35Speaker 3: read the defense, make the right throw at the right time,
- 52:38Speaker 3: and he can throw it.
- 52:39Speaker 5: Now.
- 52:40Speaker 3: Is it always accurate?
- 52:41Speaker 1: No, he's not.
- 52:44Speaker 3: But he needs to play football. I mean, that's what
- 52:46Speaker 3: this guy and he needs to play football. And let's
- 52:48Speaker 3: remember this and another guy.
- 52:50Speaker 1: You know.
- 52:51Speaker 3: I don't want to I don't want to say anything
- 52:53Speaker 3: bad about a guy on his birthday, but I mean,
- 52:55Speaker 3: Dak Prescott has never been like an All Star out
- 52:57Speaker 3: here at Auxnard his rookie year. Never he's never been
- 53:02Speaker 3: the best at you know, out here at training camp.
- 53:06Speaker 3: What we've seen is he gets in the game, the
- 53:08Speaker 3: lights come on. He's a playmaker. Milton just hadn't played
- 53:12Speaker 3: a lot boy. There's nobody I'd rather I want to
- 53:14Speaker 3: see more than Jayden Blue and Joe Milton. Those are
- 53:17Speaker 3: the two guys I can't wait to see in a
- 53:19Speaker 3: preseason game. Want to see what they can do. We
- 53:21Speaker 3: know we can run. I want to see some of
- 53:23Speaker 3: these throws as well and mix it up. Just figure
- 53:25Speaker 3: out the right time to do it.
- 53:27Speaker 5: You know.
- 53:28Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson's great at it and Josh Allen is great
- 53:32Speaker 3: at it. They run, but they also know when to
- 53:35Speaker 3: throw it as well. Well, let's let's go to one
- 53:37Speaker 3: more break really quick, and we'll be right back after this.
- 53:41Speaker 5: Sorry.

- 54:52Speaker 3: All right, Welcome back to Cowboys storyline here Tuesday, July,
- 54:58Speaker 3: the twenty ninth segment. It's presented by Yetti, the official
- 55:01Speaker 3: license Yetti Cowboys Gears now available at Stadium pro Shops,
- 55:05Speaker 3: Concession and on Yetti dot com. I hope everybody got
- 55:09Speaker 3: the yetties that we're supposed to get them from the
- 55:11Speaker 3: All Storyline team, and know many of you received yours.
- 55:15Speaker 3: Those are for the guys that called some kind of
- 55:17Speaker 3: out of first time callers.
- 55:18Speaker 5: Though.
- 55:18Speaker 3: How about another one right here from Innes, Texas is
- 55:21Speaker 3: Mike in in this Texas. Mike, what's up?
- 55:24Speaker 1: Hey? Man? Love your show, appreciate it, really really enjoying it.
- 55:28Speaker 1: Thank you so much. I want to just kind of
- 55:32Speaker 1: float something out there and get your thoughts on it.
- 55:34Speaker 1: And I know everybody's kind of tired of hearing about
- 55:36Speaker 1: the Michael Parsons contract saying and all that, uh, and
- 55:41Speaker 1: it kind of goes back to what your previous callers
- 55:43Speaker 1: said about Jerry, and I just kind of want to
- 55:47Speaker 1: float this out for people to think about. I think
- 55:53Speaker 1: we can all say Jerry and Steven are pretty good
- 55:55Speaker 1: with money, or they wouldn't have what they have, right.
- 56:00Speaker 1: And and if you're looking at just to say, it's
- 56:04Speaker 1: one hundred and eighty million dollar contract, but they're gonna
- 56:07Speaker 1: pay him, Okay, they're gonna pay Mike one hundred to say,
- 56:10Speaker 1: one hundred and eighty million dollars at just a regular
- 56:14Speaker 1: kind of simple interest calculation at eight percent. Now, I
- 56:18Speaker 1: know Jerry could probably get nine or ten if he
- 56:20Speaker 1: asks for it. But this is say, for the sake
- 56:23Speaker 1: of saying, at eight percent, just over the last eight
- 56:28Speaker 1: months that he would earn him and Jerry or the
- 56:33Speaker 1: Cowboys the organization would earn nine point six million dollars
- 56:38Speaker 1: just an interest. Alm. Okay, all right, So hanging on
- 56:46Speaker 1: to that contract money for as long as he can, Yeah,
- 56:52Speaker 1: before he pays someone is actually earning him a lot
- 56:59Speaker 1: more money.
- 57:01Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, and yeah, yeah, And I.
- 57:07Speaker 1: Just I just think it's kind of you know, I
- 57:09Speaker 1: don't want to be reminisced to say, well, I'm not
- 57:11Speaker 1: happy that they haven't won a Super Bowl and how
- 57:13Speaker 1: long or do I feel that Jerry is not doing
- 57:18Speaker 1: a good job. I think that they think on a
- 57:21Speaker 1: different level when it comes to money than most of
- 57:24Speaker 1: us do, and they're looking at so many different things.
- 57:28Speaker 1: I'm just giving a very simple interest calculation there. That's
- 57:31Speaker 1: just that's just a spit in the wind. I'm just saying,
- 57:35Speaker 1: if we were to know the exact numbers, it's probably
- 57:38Speaker 1: in exactly the type of banking or situation that they're
- 57:43Speaker 1: they're talking about.
- 57:45Speaker 5: It could it could be.
- 57:47Speaker 1: Substantially more than that that that he could be earning
- 57:49Speaker 1: over a seven eight months period before he signs that
- 57:56Speaker 1: check over to Micah. So I just just thought, and
- 58:00Speaker 1: it was just my idea. You know, they're trying to
- 58:06Speaker 1: you know, keep in house money. Yeah, before they signed
- 58:10Speaker 1: over with that that amount of money.
- 58:11Speaker 3: I think that's I think that's the answer right there,
- 58:15Speaker 3: the interest and all that. I you know, I'm not
- 58:19Speaker 3: exactly a whiz when it comes to the business class
- 58:21Speaker 3: and all that, but we're talking about the salary cap.
- 58:24Speaker 3: And because you're talking about the cap and how all
- 58:26Speaker 3: this money kind of goes to one side, you know
- 58:29Speaker 3: it's going to get paid the same Now now there
- 58:32Speaker 3: is something to the effect of why would we pay
- 58:34Speaker 3: them right now when we when we don't have to
- 58:37Speaker 3: pay them? And the biggest example I have of that
- 58:39Speaker 3: is the Dak Prescott deal the first time around, when
- 58:42Speaker 3: Dak was making two million dollars and he turned down
- 58:45Speaker 3: the thirty three million dollar deal and he played on
- 58:48Speaker 3: a two million and even though he ended up getting
- 58:51Speaker 3: forty million, he did not make up that thirty one
- 58:54Speaker 3: million dollar difference that he played on that season right there,
- 58:56Speaker 3: He didn't make up that much of a difference. The
- 58:59Speaker 3: Cowboys won that deal even though it's like, well Dak
- 59:01Speaker 3: finally got what he wanted, he got forty. He took
- 59:03Speaker 3: him another year to do it, and he lost thirty
- 59:05Speaker 3: one million in one year. So he got an extra
- 59:08Speaker 3: he was one and thirty five. He got extra five
- 59:10Speaker 3: you know times four, that's twenty. But he didn't get
- 59:13Speaker 3: he lost thirty one by not making the deal that
- 59:15Speaker 3: that time. So that is that is the example that
- 59:18Speaker 3: I think of when it comes to sometimes why the
- 59:20Speaker 3: cowboys wait on the deal. But in this case, Mike
- 59:24Speaker 3: is counting twenty one and if he did get another deal,
- 59:28Speaker 3: he's not going to count twenty one on the cap
- 59:30Speaker 3: the way they're going to structure it. So but right,
- 59:33Speaker 3: but people forget they're they're gonna have to go but
- 59:36Speaker 3: do some things you know here, but they're they're done
- 59:38Speaker 3: getting like the big deals. I think. I don't. I
- 59:42Speaker 3: wouldn't think. You know that they need a ton of money.
- 59:45Speaker 3: They need they need money to operate, but not a
- 59:47Speaker 3: ton to go do make some splashy deal. I don't know.
- 59:50Speaker 3: Maybe no, maybe get back to me next week and see,
- 59:53Speaker 3: I mean, more injuries pop up. Maybe I'm wrong on
- 59:55Speaker 3: that exactly.
- 59:56Speaker 1: Yeah, And that dynamic always it seems like it's something
- 1:00:01Speaker 1: that's kind of forgotten. Is that? Is that the injury
- 1:00:04Speaker 1: dynamic that may happen anyway? Thought, great, great show, I
- 1:00:09Speaker 1: love it and keep up a good work.
- 1:00:11Speaker 3: Thanks for the call. First time caller there, Mike, and
- 1:00:14Speaker 3: and this, and we're gonna go with our last caller
- 1:00:15Speaker 3: of the day here. We're gonna have to wrap this
- 1:00:17Speaker 3: up because, as Randy said, I actually do have to
- 1:00:20Speaker 3: go do an interview with Steven Jones. Get to do
- 1:00:23Speaker 3: an interview with Stephen Jones. Will see what he has
- 1:00:25Speaker 3: to say. Uh, but we'll start before we do that.
- 1:00:27Speaker 3: We're gonna go. We'll wrap up the show with John
- 1:00:29Speaker 3: and Delaware. John, what's up? Man?
- 1:00:34Speaker 1: Hey?

- 1:00:50Speaker 3: I can hear you fine, I.
- 1:00:52Speaker 7: Know it, but I can't really hear you.
- 1:00:54Speaker 6: So it's kind of like.
- 1:00:57Speaker 7: Another joke.
- 1:00:58Speaker 3: All right, Oh, Thursday, we'll do it on Thursday this week.
- 1:01:03Speaker 6: Thursday.
- 1:01:04Speaker 3: You have a good week, okay, all right? John from Delaware? Sorry, man,
- 1:01:08Speaker 3: it's usually the way around usually hard for us to
- 1:01:10Speaker 3: hear them. But all right, well, sorry about that. Uh,
- 1:01:14Speaker 3: I'm still counting on my sheet though. Chris, we got
- 1:01:16Speaker 3: eleven callers we talked to him. So anyways, all right, well,

- 1:01:26Speaker 3: getting these things going. I know, if you guys just
- 1:01:29Speaker 3: knew the setup, there's always something out here. He's got wires,
- 1:01:33Speaker 3: you know, rolling in on this tennis cord and trying
- 1:01:35Speaker 3: to figure everything out. And uh, he looks kind of
- 1:01:38Speaker 3: perplexed as we speak right now, but he always gets
- 1:01:40Speaker 3: it done. I call him McIver because he gets it
- 1:01:43Speaker 3: done all the time. And he's wearing a Cowboys Storyline shirt.
- 1:01:46Speaker 3: What is up? All right?
- 1:01:48Speaker 6: Uh?
