- 0:00Speaker 1: Glad to have you with us alongside. Pleased as well
- 0:03to be joined by the producer of the program, Cameron D. Parker.
- 0:06The D on the birth certificate stands for Dallas. That's
- 0:09his actual middle name on the birth certificate, given to
- 0:12him by his father, Avid Dallas, Cowboys fan as his
- 0:16camp who, however, has pledged not to watch the Cowboys
- 0:21play live this year, going back to his disgust at
- 0:24the way last season ended. His disgust continues as he
- 0:28doesn't watch them live, right, You're still disgusted. Yeah, And
- 0:33I think I have other Cowboy fans. Actually, on Sunday,
- 0:37four or five Cowboy fans that are in my life
- 0:40also talked about how they didn't they weren't going to
- 0:42watch the game, that they weren't watching the game, and
- 0:44they did not watch the game. So thatpathy in this
- 0:48fan base, it's not just with me. It's spreading like wildfire,
- 0:53and it gets worse and worse, And Jerry Jones continues
- 0:56to just dig himself and the Cowboys a big ol' hole.
- 1:00He goes on one of his forty different radio hits
- 1:03every single day and continues to talk himself under a bus. Yeah,
- 1:07and we're gonna hear some of that coming up next segment. Now,
- 1:11yesterday we had the comment from Jerry. Do we still
- 1:15have that comment from yesterday with Jerry? Now we can
- 1:18pull it up? Okay, all right, there was a comment yesterday,
- 1:23and I'll tell you what We'll save it for as
- 1:26a prelude into what he had to say this morning
- 1:30on his regular weekly appearance on one O five to
- 1:33three the fan in Dallas for Worth. I will tell you,
- 1:38and I've seen as everybody else has Jerry Jones Low
- 1:45these thirty five years. I hosted his radio show at
- 1:50one time. We've we've talked about that and given out
- 1:53those stories, and I interacted with him quite a bit,
- 1:58like during cowboys training something like that. So I feel
- 2:01like I know quite a bit about him. I don't
- 2:04know that I'm as comfortable saying I know Jerry, because
- 2:08I've never been like fight with Jerry. But we got
- 2:10a long fine. We always got I remember when he
- 2:12came down when I told you when I was living
- 2:14at Riatta, when I first moved down and he owned
- 2:16those apartments and I was living there, and he sat
- 2:18down with me and Bill Shooning, and Bill said, I know,
- 2:20you know this guy. Well, I do, and it's great
- 2:23to see you again, Greg, And uh yeah, uh so
- 2:26I've known I've been around Jerry enough to understand him
- 2:31a little bit. So the reason why I'm saying all
- 2:33this is because I don't think I've ever heard Jerry
- 2:38Jones this irritated as as you someone what we heard
- 2:44yesterday and what you'll hear today. Uh he's in fact,
- 2:50I was always kind of impressed. Believe it or not.
- 2:52There's there's there's there's a couple of things about Jerry
- 2:55Jones that impressed me. One obviously, his money making ability,
- 2:58his marketing skills, and he's he's a money making genius.
- 3:01It's a business man. We know that, we all know that.
- 3:05And then the other thing is he was always pretty
- 3:09good at being able to compartmentalize, shelve, redirect criticism and
- 3:20even anger into something littwer key, sometimes humor injected, sometimes
- 3:26just a quote unquote heartfelt response. That kind of stuff.
- 3:32I cain't get that last couple of days got an
- 3:35edge from him. So maybe maybe we're starting to see
- 3:40something different, Especially if this thing craters as you have
- 3:45projected it, will you think the Cowboys are gonna next
- 3:48time we look up, they're gonna be three and eight, right,
- 3:50good chance you think they're going on a on a
- 3:54six game bender right now, about to be a six
- 3:57game losing streak. We'll see, could be I don't know
- 4:02any more to words of Dak Prescott, here we go.
- 4:05You know, you know we'll see. But you know it's
- 4:10a different sound coming out of Jerry Jones these past
- 4:13forty eight hours. Let me put it that way, could
- 4:16all completely change and he could go back to being Jerry.
- 4:19And I'm smiling going to say that, and you know
- 4:21it's a little track and all that. He could do
- 4:24all that and might, but it's a long fortnight for
- 4:30them because they have no game this week. Matt Brown
- 4:34used to say it, there are good bye weeks and
- 4:39there are bad bye weeks, and he managed primarily from
- 4:45the perspective of the head coach and the team. In
- 4:49other words, the approach you take, whether you know if
- 4:55you're coming off a win or coming off a loss,
- 4:57how do you handle the bye week? Do you work
- 4:59it hard? You practice? And I put that question to
- 5:02Sark last week at Long Worn Weekly. He was well
- 5:05acquainted with that phrase about a good bad bye week
- 5:08in a bat well. Obviously, it was a good one
- 5:10for Texas. They went back to work, they got ready
- 5:12for the Oklahoma game. Defense was stellar, offense sputtered in
- 5:17the first quarter, then kicked it in the high gear
- 5:19in the second quarter, and they beat their heavy duty
- 5:21rival thirty four to three. And so now they're six
- 5:24to oh and a clear number one in both polls.
- 5:29That obviously gets really put to the griddle on Saturday
- 5:34night at DKR Texas Memorial Stadium with one of the
- 5:37elite programs over this past decade in all of college football,
- 5:40the Georgia Bulldogs come in to town. Our coverage, by
- 5:43the way, beginning at three thirty with Cam and Mike,
- 5:47card Bowl Harge and the World's Strongest Man Mark Henry
- 5:51out at Vivo Boulevard there in the hook them hangout
- 5:55in the winship circle. That's at three thirty. Network pre
- 5:57game five thirty kickoff. I'm just on a level with you.
- 6:01Kickoff's gonna be six forty five. It's not gonna be
- 6:02six thirty. That's ABC. Hey, we're getting used to those
- 6:06fifteen minutes. Yeah, pushes, Yeah, I used to having to
- 6:11ride a little more expand a little more in that
- 6:14pre game and all that make it work. Anyway, Texas
- 6:19handled the bye week very very well. And as it
- 6:25relates to the Cowboys, how do they handle this by
- 6:28week before they get ready for their next game afterwards?
- 6:31That's gonna be one of the big questions and it's
- 6:34gonna be a long wait for the players, for the coaches,
- 6:38and yes, the owner in general manager, you're aware that
- 6:42there's a hashtag it really didn't start untire Jerry. Yes,
- 6:48it really mad, but yeah, hashtag fire Jerry, which makes
- 6:52no sense at all because there's no one to fire him.
- 6:56We've been down this road. We talked about this and said,
- 6:59unless he does something along the lines of Daniel Snyder,
- 7:02Marge Shot, who else? Did we say? Just bad ownership?
- 7:08Donald Donald Sterling with the Clippers, you know, Shangic Johnson,
- 7:13what's he done? You know that kind of thing? Who
- 7:14at George Schen You know, you know, unless you've done
- 7:19something so heinous, you're not going to be forced to
- 7:23give up your franchise. So Edward Barlow eventually had to
- 7:28kind of ease his way out in Denise, York. His
- 7:30daughter kind of took command of that with the forty
- 7:32nine Ers, but that was an ease of transition. The
- 7:37only ease of transition with the Cowboys will be when
- 7:39Jerry finally decides he's had enough and Stephen takes over.
- 7:43That's it. And I know a lot of people think
- 7:45that that Steven is just going to be Jerry two
- 7:49point zero, and he might be. I think he's got
- 7:52a little more flexibility with him, but we'll see. I
- 7:55will tell you this, Stephen right now is watching firsthand
- 8:01the heat come at Jerry now. Again, Jerry has had
- 8:07in as best to suit on for the better part
- 8:09of thirty five years, so seemingly upfront, I know it
- 8:14may be quite a bit different behind closed doors, but
- 8:17up front he's always carried off the facade of it's okay,
- 8:22I understand it, fans care, they like it, and you know,
- 8:26I understand it, and am willing to look at it.
- 8:31You know, is that kind of stuff. But now we're
- 8:34hearing a little more edge in his voice, so we're
- 8:37gonna hear that coming up. Also, we've got Inconceivable this hour,
- 8:42so we'll do that. There is a fast food update
- 8:45in the Inconceivable tray three o'clock hour, because this is
- 8:49a Texan Tuesday and Texas. Tuesday, we'll talk all things
- 8:56football of the collegiate and high school football variety with
- 9:00Greg Tapper, managing editor of Dave Campbell's Texas Football Magazine.
- 9:02That'll be in the three o'clock hour, and then in
- 9:07the four o'clock hour, we're gonna hear from QB one.
- 9:09We're gonna hear from the long Orange quarterback Quinn Youwers.
- 9:12We'll do that as well in some other college football notes.
- 9:14Are you interested in news leading the Heisman race? Depends
- 9:16on which Heisman examination that you're watching. Then there's baseball. Obviously,
- 9:24the Mets got even with the Dodgers yesterday, had that
- 9:26big five run third inning, highlighted by the grand slam
- 9:34from markin Vientos. They win that contest sixty three. That
- 9:38series of game apiece travel day for the NLCS. They
- 9:41go to New York. Game three will be in Queen's
- 9:44tomorrow night. Tonight is Game two in the ALCS Yankees
