- 0:01Speaker 1: The following.
- 0:02Speaker 2: He's a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the
- 0:04Speaker 2: Dallas Cowboys football clubs.
- 0:11Speaker 3: This is these Cowboys Storylines with Nick Eatman.
- 0:19Speaker 4: Welcome to Cowboys Storylines. I'm Nick Eatman. Derek Eagleton has
- 0:24Speaker 4: joined us here. But I thought this was gonna feel
- 0:27Speaker 4: like normal, But it doesn't because I'm starting it and
- 0:31Speaker 4: I'm the host of so again. Yes, yesterday I was like,
- 0:34Speaker 4: this feels weird. I was like, today, it's not gonna
- 0:36Speaker 4: feel weird. Show number two. Yeah, it still feels kind
- 0:39Speaker 4: of weird because I'm used to your like intro and
- 0:41Speaker 4: all that. But but I thought.
- 0:42Speaker 5: You want me to give you a little bit of
- 0:44Speaker 5: like episode number two, Live from Oxnard, California.
- 0:49Speaker 4: Season one, Episode two. Yeah, I'm your host, Nick Eatman.
- 0:53Speaker 4: I'm here with Derek.
- 0:55Speaker 6: That should have been how you started.
- 0:56Speaker 4: No, no, no, I'm trying to trying to try some
- 0:59Speaker 4: different things. But I thought it was important that it
- 1:01Speaker 4: was important to have you on here, and not that
- 1:04Speaker 4: people are really asking that are just wondering, like, what's
- 1:07Speaker 4: going on here?
- 1:07Speaker 1: What's up?
- 1:08Speaker 4: Was there a break on the break and that kind
- 1:10Speaker 4: of stuff? But I know when you announced that we
- 1:12Speaker 4: were doing some changes. There's a lot of people like,
- 1:14Speaker 4: what what's going on? What's happening? So I thought it'd
- 1:17Speaker 4: be good to have you on here. Plus we we
- 1:18Speaker 4: didn't really ever say.
- 1:19Speaker 5: Like yeah, and we didn't really say it publicly other
- 1:22Speaker 5: than like a tweet obviously, but yeah, we didn't really
- 1:25Speaker 5: get that moment to really talk on yeah.
- 1:27Speaker 4: So I say all that to really ask do you
- 1:30Speaker 4: miss me yet? I do?
- 1:31Speaker 6: We miss you?
- 1:31Speaker 1: We miss you.
- 1:32Speaker 5: But it's it's good. And I've said this before. Change
- 1:35Speaker 5: is good. Change is just different. The show feels different.
- 1:38Speaker 5: But that's not a good thing or a bad thing.
- 1:40Speaker 5: That's just it's different. And so it's it's Patrick is
- 1:43Speaker 5: doing a great job as we expect. You're gonna do
- 1:46Speaker 5: a fabulous job over here. And it's just a change, right, Yeah,
- 1:49Speaker 5: And you know.
- 1:50Speaker 4: We can kind of like talk a little bit about why,
- 1:53Speaker 4: you know, we thought. I said it the other day,
- 1:55Speaker 4: I thought, you know, we've we've hit this format pretty good,
- 1:58Speaker 4: three people, four people talking and round and a round table,
- 2:01Speaker 4: and it works well with trying some different things. And
- 2:03Speaker 4: so when we discussed how, you know, let's do something
- 2:06Speaker 4: a little different and and what was your vision of
- 2:10Speaker 4: kind of a show like this.
- 2:11Speaker 5: Well, I really wanted the ability. And for those of you,
- 2:14Speaker 5: you've watched Nick for years and so you guys probably
- 2:17Speaker 5: have picked up on the fact that Nick can be
- 2:19Speaker 5: very witty and it can be funny, and in his
- 2:23Speaker 5: own way, he can be very endearing. And I think
- 2:28Speaker 5: putting you in a situation where you get to interact
- 2:30Speaker 5: with fans is going to highlight those things that I
- 2:33Speaker 5: think are real assets for you. It's hard sometimes for
- 2:36Speaker 5: those things to come out in a four person group, right,
- 2:39Speaker 5: And I remember, I think you those things came out
- 2:42Speaker 5: a lot more when it was just me and you
- 2:44Speaker 5: because you had the flexibility to just kind of take
- 2:47Speaker 5: it wherever you wanted to take and I would play along,
- 2:48Speaker 5: and so we just kind of, you know, we had
- 2:50Speaker 5: that kind of chemistry. It's different when you're in a
- 2:52Speaker 5: group of four, right, and you're trying to work in
- 2:54Speaker 5: a point. It's not as much time and room for
- 2:57Speaker 5: you to be able to just kind of be yourself.
- 2:59Speaker 5: And so what I was looking for out of this
- 3:01Speaker 5: show was this is a personality driven show, and you're
- 3:04Speaker 5: gonna have fun with the fans and you're gonna probably
- 3:07Speaker 5: maybe times by the way I'm alrty expecting I may
- 3:10Speaker 5: get some tweets from people like Nick offended me. I know,
- 3:14Speaker 5: I know, I'm sorry and we'll move on and he'll
- 3:17Speaker 5: apologize if he needs to.
- 3:18Speaker 4: But you're just throwing it out there in these like
- 3:20Speaker 4: it's gonna happen.
- 3:21Speaker 5: But I know you right, and I know I know
- 3:23Speaker 5: sometimes people will say things that will make you feel
- 3:26Speaker 5: like you gotta come back, and that's who you are.
- 3:28Speaker 6: And by the way, that's what I want for this show,
- 3:30Speaker 6: is you to be yourself.
- 3:30Speaker 4: Well, one thing that I said, I thank you for
- 3:32Speaker 4: saying that. But one thing that I mentioned on the
- 3:35Speaker 4: other the first show is you know, opinion. Everybody's got
- 3:38Speaker 4: their opinions. They hear all the time, and I really
- 3:41Speaker 4: really try to say, all right, you're not wrong. When
- 3:43Speaker 4: you say it's my opinion, you are not wrong. And
- 3:45Speaker 4: that's fine. It's like the guy and Nationally that said
- 3:50Speaker 4: that that cannot be a lead unless he wins two
- 3:52Speaker 4: Super Bowls. That's his opinion. It's terrible, as I think
- 3:55Speaker 4: that it is. You know, it's fine, and and my
- 3:58Speaker 4: point to that was what I said on the radio
- 4:01Speaker 4: show this morning, was that no one around here for
- 4:04Speaker 4: the last thirty years has seen what it's like for
- 4:06Speaker 4: the Cowboys to actually win a super Bowl. So for
- 4:08Speaker 4: that to happen and those next steps of what it
- 4:10Speaker 4: takes to get to the super Bowl, the quarterback doing it, No,
- 4:13Speaker 4: I think he's gonna get put on that one of
- 4:14Speaker 4: the highest pedestals, and I think he's gonna immediately become elite.
- 4:18Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, because the playbacks it up, like you look
- 4:21Speaker 5: at his body of work. His body of work has
- 4:23Speaker 5: been good enough to be in that category. What what
- 4:25Speaker 5: is holding him back is that success in January and
- 4:28Speaker 5: ultimately in February that I think people waiting to see
- 4:32Speaker 5: to make to make that final step and say, okay,
- 4:34Speaker 5: yeah he's among the best in elite.
- 4:35Speaker 4: Yeah, let's let's let's go back. Let's keep it with
- 4:38Speaker 4: the podcast. Though, do you remember I really don't, you know.
- 4:42Speaker 4: You know, my memory can be bad sometimes when I
- 4:46Speaker 4: don't want it to be, you know, But do you
- 4:49Speaker 4: remember kind of how the podcast started, Like when when
- 4:52Speaker 4: you and I were doing it together. I mean, I
- 4:54Speaker 4: know we did the Tuesday Nights in the ram with
- 5:00Speaker 4: yeah that's got enough? Yeah, Well it was eight minutes
- 5:03Speaker 4: and I hadn't talked yet, so I thought it was
- 5:04Speaker 4: time to go to do the bathroom or something and
- 5:06Speaker 4: you never did that, you know, no, But do you
- 5:09Speaker 4: remember where where it started?
- 5:10Speaker 5: Like, you know, I don't remember the exact moment. I
- 5:14Speaker 5: do remember around that time and it was just kind
- 5:17Speaker 5: of like, hey, I want to do that. And by
- 5:19Speaker 5: the way, it wasn't called podcasting at that point. We
- 5:22Speaker 5: were calling it online radio. That's why people always ask
- 5:25Speaker 5: me why I say radio at the end.
- 5:26Speaker 6: It is because at the time when we started that
- 5:28Speaker 6: it wasn't podcast was not a term.
- 5:29Speaker 5: It didn't exist. We were doing online radio, is what
- 5:32Speaker 5: we were doing.
- 5:33Speaker 6: And uh. And so that's how it started.
- 5:36Speaker 4: And a little secret here we could get away with things.
- 5:39Speaker 1: Back then.
- 5:40Speaker 4: There were some times where we would we would talk
- 5:43Speaker 4: to each other in code.
- 5:45Speaker 6: Yes, we would things that probably wouldn't be appropriate.
- 5:48Speaker 4: Today, not at all, but we we would. We would
- 5:51Speaker 4: ask each other questions on the show, and we could
- 5:54Speaker 4: do that with hand signals and things like that that
- 5:57Speaker 4: we we can't we can't do now, right, But the
- 5:59Speaker 4: world is change, Yeah, the world say for the better.
- 6:01Speaker 4: It's kind of cool. And I'm not sure that place
- 6:03Speaker 4: we were doing the podcast, we're actually being great for uh.
- 6:07Speaker 1: For TV.
- 6:08Speaker 4: You know that dungeon down there, but yeah, it's it's
- 6:12Speaker 4: great how it's it's evolved. And you know what was
- 6:13Speaker 4: funny is when you did leave the show for a
- 6:17Speaker 4: few months.
- 6:18Speaker 6: Yeah, something like that, half a year.
- 6:19Speaker 4: I don't remember you you have to show just for
- 6:22Speaker 4: a little bit, and I remember We're like, man, it's
- 6:24Speaker 4: been eight years by dre. You know, we had a
- 6:26Speaker 4: little piss bump and this is the final one. So
- 6:27Speaker 4: I thought, you after nineteen years, I was at least
- 6:30Speaker 4: we could we could do that. We didn't get a
- 6:31Speaker 4: chance in the offseason, but I wanted to definitely bring
- 6:34Speaker 4: you on here. And you know, like you said, this
- 6:35Speaker 4: show is gonna be a band driven show, and so
- 6:38Speaker 4: we're gonna take questions here. In the third segment after this,
- 6:41Speaker 4: we're gonna have Dorin's Armstrong's gonna join us here. So
- 6:43Speaker 4: excited about having him on. But but we we are
- 6:46Speaker 4: gonna ask questions. And I thought this one was be
- 6:50Speaker 4: one that I wanted to get your perspective on this
- 6:53Speaker 4: from Brandon. One stop Cowboys is his handle, he said,
- 6:57Speaker 4: coming into the season with the benefit of foresight, where
- 6:59Speaker 4: does this team stand in comparison to two thousand and
- 7:02Speaker 4: seven twenty fourteen, twenty sixteen. In my opinion, this is
- 7:07Speaker 4: what Brandon says, In my opinion, of those teams had
- 7:09Speaker 4: the best chances to finally restore winning tradition in Dallas.
- 7:12Speaker 4: Do you do you think those three years seven, fourteen,
- 7:15Speaker 4: and sixteen, and maybe last year or the year before
- 7:19Speaker 4: that it could mix into this. Do you think this
- 7:21Speaker 4: team is on par for those Yeah?
- 7:23Speaker 6: I mean, I will tell you this.
- 7:25Speaker 5: I know in my mind, there's no question this defense
- 7:29Speaker 5: is the best defense that I've seen since I've been
- 7:32Speaker 5: worked for the Cowboys in the twenty three twenty four
- 7:35Speaker 5: years i've been here. So I do think the defense
- 7:37Speaker 5: is better than any of those teams. Not sure about
- 7:40Speaker 5: the offense. But here's the deal. I think the defense
- 7:43Speaker 5: is so much better than those teams that when you
- 7:46Speaker 5: then take the holistic approach of the entire team, I
- 7:49Speaker 5: would say this might be the best shot the Cowboys
- 7:51Speaker 5: have had in my time with the team. I mean,
- 7:54Speaker 5: you look at it right now, and really there are
- 7:57Speaker 5: only they're only, in my mind, a couple of lingering questions,
- 8:03Speaker 5: and I think they are the running back position, and
- 8:06Speaker 5: not so much that I don't think Tony Poller can
- 8:07Speaker 5: do it, but it still is a question mark. Can
- 8:09Speaker 5: he hold up and do it in a situation where
- 8:12Speaker 5: he may have a game where they're like, we need
- 8:14Speaker 5: to lean on you thirty times this game in the
- 8:17Speaker 5: context of a seventeen game season, right, So that's a
- 8:20Speaker 5: question mark. We don't know if he's not had to
- 8:22Speaker 5: do that, So we don't know about that, and we
- 8:23Speaker 5: don't know about the depth under him, right. And then
- 8:26Speaker 5: the other is the offensive line, and really you know
- 8:29Speaker 5: that one is more of a question of can they
- 8:32Speaker 5: keep everybody helpful? Right, because you tell me you got
- 8:34Speaker 5: those five that that I think are gonna be your starters,
- 8:36Speaker 5: and you're gonna have them all season.
- 8:38Speaker 6: I feel good about the offensive line. They'll be great.
- 8:40Speaker 5: They'll be able to do what they need to do.
- 8:42Speaker 5: The issue is what happens if you start getting injuries.
- 8:45Speaker 5: Do you have the right depth in order to to
- 8:47Speaker 5: still be able to make things go?
- 8:48Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 8:49Speaker 4: Yeah, for me answering it, I mean until I see otherwise.
- 8:52Speaker 4: I mean the two thousand and seven team, to me
- 8:54Speaker 4: is the best team that I've seen since I've been here,
- 8:58Speaker 4: and I think when you look at now, I do
- 9:00Speaker 4: think the defense has a chance to be better if
- 9:02Speaker 4: not there. They might already be better than that one.
- 9:06Speaker 4: But the offense, I mean Dak and Romo at that time,
- 9:10Speaker 4: that that's they're about the same there. I think CD
- 9:13Speaker 4: is about the same as what to o when he
- 9:15Speaker 4: was really doing his thing. They had Wit and they
- 9:18Speaker 4: had two running backs there in Barber and Julius Jones,
- 9:20Speaker 4: and then three Pro bowlers on the offensive line, not
- 9:22Speaker 4: to mention a Colombo and a Kozar who were really
- 9:24Speaker 4: good too. So I think that team was better to
- 9:26Speaker 4: thirteen Pro bowlers. And you know, they lost to the Giants.
- 9:30Speaker 4: I mean, they're just simple as that. They lost to
- 9:31Speaker 4: a team that got super hot, and you know, we
- 9:34Speaker 4: could all blame guys for dropping passes or whatever that
- 9:36Speaker 4: they should have won that game they didn't, And you know,
- 9:39Speaker 4: that's that's been the story of their their time in
- 9:41Speaker 4: the playoffs. I think the seven teams better, but this
- 9:43Speaker 4: team is not that far away. So all right, so
- 9:47Speaker 4: I guess we could do a proper send off for
- 9:50Speaker 4: a podcast style and didn't going anywherewhere beside. Yeah, exactly,
- 9:56Speaker 4: But I still thought it was good to bring you
- 9:57Speaker 4: on here, and at least at least I wouldn't say
- 10:00Speaker 4: one more time, but just the next time to have
- 10:03Speaker 4: it on here, and it's been good, and I again
- 10:06Speaker 4: I can't I'll say it to you in the tent.
- 10:08Speaker 4: I'll say it to you right here. I'm always thankful
- 10:10Speaker 4: of the opportunities that you've given for me and to
- 10:13Speaker 4: try to help me grow my brand, which you've always
- 10:16Speaker 4: said helps grow everybody's brand.
- 10:18Speaker 5: Absolutely, yeah, and I expect you to do big things
- 10:20Speaker 5: on this show. My expectations is this is going to
- 10:22Speaker 5: become one of our flagship shows. I'm not sure it
- 10:25Speaker 5: will be better than The Break, but it's gonna be
- 10:26Speaker 5: one of our flagship shows.
- 10:27Speaker 6: And now you get now you get to compete, like
- 10:29Speaker 6: we get to compete now. It'll be fun. We'll get
- 10:31Speaker 6: to compete a little bit.
- 10:32Speaker 5: And but I'm looking forward to doing a really fabulous job.
- 10:34Speaker 5: I think this is made for you. You'ven do a really
- 10:36Speaker 5: good job with this.

- 13:01Speaker 4: this show so far, Trayvon. The other day, of course,
- 13:04Speaker 4: we were big thing we were talking about him was
- 13:06Speaker 4: it was a huge contract and obviously, uh, it's always
- 13:09Speaker 4: cool to see your teammates that that kind of get
- 13:12Speaker 4: the bag, as you guys like to say, and uh,
- 13:15Speaker 4: what's that? What's that like? Because you guys only you
- 13:18Speaker 4: guys sort of know kind of the the brotherhood that
- 13:21Speaker 4: that is and how everybody's kind of fighting for the
- 13:24Speaker 4: same things.
- 13:25Speaker 1: M h.
- 13:25Speaker 11: I mean, obviously that's that's everybody's goal to get the bag.
- 13:29Speaker 11: You know what I'm saying, they win a championship. But
- 13:32Speaker 11: most importantly, it's just exciting to see your guys do that.
- 13:35Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
- 13:36Speaker 11: They really accomplish a lifetime goal of theirs and to
- 13:40Speaker 11: be able to provide for their family.
- 13:42Speaker 4: So let's talk about you a little bit. You got
- 13:44Speaker 4: the shades on, you can look at you look at it,
- 13:46Speaker 4: You got that California field. What is it like to
- 13:49Speaker 4: be here?
- 13:50Speaker 1: You know?
- 13:50Speaker 4: For for you, You've you've been at Auxnard every year
- 13:53Speaker 4: since you've been a camp. But does this does this
- 13:56Speaker 4: feel different for you personally?
- 14:00Speaker 1: Nah?
- 14:00Speaker 11: Man, I feel like when I come out here, I
- 14:02Speaker 11: just know what time it is. You know what I'm saying,
- 14:04Speaker 11: it's this is this is where you really continue to
- 14:06Speaker 11: put the put in the work for the season and
- 14:09Speaker 11: you get better at the team, get better as a person,
- 14:11Speaker 11: and just it's still time to grow.
- 14:13Speaker 4: What there's a lot of talks swirling. Can this team?
- 14:17Speaker 4: How good is this defense going to be? Can it
- 14:19Speaker 4: be the best? Obviously that that is the goal, But
- 14:23Speaker 4: how do y'all view your your your defense on a
- 14:28Speaker 4: league wide scope or do you even go that route?
- 14:30Speaker 4: Does it even matter where you rank? As long as
- 14:33Speaker 4: you guys do what you need to do on.
- 14:34Speaker 11: Sundays, Nah, ranks is to me is just a statistic. Obviously,
- 14:39Speaker 11: it's a statistic based off your production. And just we
- 14:46Speaker 11: just try to be better than what we all last year.
- 14:48Speaker 11: Our coaches put that in front of us because they
- 14:50Speaker 11: want that for us too. And with the group of
- 14:52Speaker 11: guys we have, literally each and every one of them
- 14:55Speaker 11: wants to do the same thing, and so having that
- 14:59Speaker 11: fire right now is and we just want to continue
- 15:02Speaker 11: to come out here every day and build off the
- 15:04Speaker 11: day before and literally build off last year. So and
- 15:07Speaker 11: that all starts right now. So our goals and stuff
- 15:10Speaker 11: are pretty much already set and we're just working to
- 15:14Speaker 11: be able to put ourselves in a better position.
- 15:17Speaker 4: So you talked about stats and production and as a team,
- 15:22Speaker 4: as a as a unit. I'm gonna talking about you
- 15:24Speaker 4: individually a little bit here because we did a little research. Okay,
- 15:28Speaker 4: last thirty years, as as far back as this website.
- 15:31Speaker 4: It could take some of these stats, but in the
- 15:33Speaker 4: last thirty years, there's nobody in the NFL that had
- 15:37Speaker 4: eight and a half sacks in one season plus a
- 15:40Speaker 4: blocked punt, plus a blocked field goal. Talk about that
- 15:45Speaker 4: a little bit. I mean that's I mean that that
- 15:47Speaker 4: just shows a unique skill set there that you've had
- 15:50Speaker 4: and provide. And would you rank which one of those
- 15:54Speaker 4: kind of matters the most of you?
- 15:57Speaker 11: Honestly, I like them odd to me, they're all they're
- 16:00Speaker 11: the same, and I look at it. It's a big play,
- 16:03Speaker 11: a game change and play. But the block field goal
- 16:07Speaker 11: and the block punt, those are rare moments. You know,
- 16:11Speaker 11: there's only a limited amount of punts in the game
- 16:14Speaker 11: or field goals in the game. So to be able
- 16:16Speaker 11: to execute that and change the game.
- 16:19Speaker 1: I like that.
- 16:20Speaker 4: I mean, I think it speaks volume. You are obviously
- 16:22Speaker 4: not gonna talk about yourself like that, which is what's
- 16:24Speaker 4: good and everybody appreciates that and respects that. But for
- 16:27Speaker 4: me personally, I look at it. You know, getting Ayden
- 16:30Speaker 4: have sacks in the season means you are rushing the
- 16:32Speaker 4: passer a lot. You're doing a good work there and
- 16:35Speaker 4: doing it a lot on third downs. But to have
- 16:38Speaker 4: that plus the versatility of saying I will play special teams,
- 16:42Speaker 4: I will I'm good enough to get around and block
- 16:44Speaker 4: this punt. And I think on that punt that you
- 16:46Speaker 4: blocked against the Rams and you told me that you
- 16:49Speaker 4: were you've been kind of you study that in film.
- 16:51Speaker 4: You kind of knew how they were going to line up.
- 16:53Speaker 4: Can you kind of elaborate on that?
- 16:55Speaker 11: Shout out to bones Man, Bones he put he puts
- 16:58Speaker 11: the film in front of me. He's he and the
- 17:00Speaker 11: keys that I get from the film. And to be
- 17:03Speaker 11: able to take that and apply to practice and then
- 17:06Speaker 11: execute it on the game, man man, I couldn't ask
- 17:10Speaker 11: for a better coach to put me in that position.
- 17:12Speaker 4: So and really, if you look at the last with
- 17:14Speaker 4: eighteen games or so, because you scored a touchdown against
- 17:17Speaker 4: Washington the year before and then you're blocking all that,
- 17:19Speaker 4: So what's the best thrill third down late in the game?
- 17:24Speaker 4: Third down sack to force a punt or a touchdown
- 17:28Speaker 4: or a block punt. What's what's what? Adrenaline gives you
- 17:31Speaker 4: the biggest adrenaline rush.
- 17:33Speaker 1: The block punt. Yeah, the block punt.
- 17:36Speaker 4: That sound that double thudg Man, it's just.
- 17:39Speaker 11: Like anybody couldn't get that. But you really have to
- 17:41Speaker 11: win and get off the ball. So man, it's a
- 17:43Speaker 11: lot of focus that actually have to go into that
- 17:45Speaker 11: play because it's literally like four game, maybe three.
- 17:48Speaker 1: Game, you never know, but.
- 17:50Speaker 11: You can get a sack throughout the entire game, you know,
- 17:53Speaker 11: multiple to be exact. But that special team is just
- 17:57Speaker 11: literally special.
- 17:59Speaker 4: Let me talk about the pass rush a little bit here,
- 18:02Speaker 4: because you guys, it almost seems like, you know, like
- 18:05Speaker 4: with the wide receivers or whatever, everybody wants the ball.
- 18:07Speaker 4: Is there enough balls to go around on your skill players?
- 18:10Speaker 4: Is there enough reps off the edge to go around
- 18:12Speaker 4: for your your your guys here. I mean, you got
- 18:15Speaker 4: not just Micah, you Tank, Sam Williams, Fowler. I mean,
- 18:19Speaker 4: and I know you got some young guys you're probably
- 18:21Speaker 4: excited about too. I mean, how is this all gonna work?
- 18:24Speaker 4: Is this a good problem to have?
- 18:26Speaker 1: Man?
- 18:27Speaker 10: It?
- 18:28Speaker 1: Man?
- 18:29Speaker 11: Look here, it's hard it's hard having a lot of
- 18:32Speaker 11: guys that can rush like that, but it's also a
- 18:34Speaker 11: good thing because we can roll, we can rotate. But
- 18:36Speaker 11: the main thing I take away from it is to
- 18:38Speaker 11: be able to execute when your numbers called, because you
- 18:41Speaker 11: never know how many reps you're gonna get. So to
- 18:44Speaker 11: be able there and just go in and make a
- 18:46Speaker 11: play like that, that's special.
- 18:47Speaker 4: Talk about number eleven for a second. Here, Mike go
- 18:51Speaker 4: on and he and he, he goes for all over
- 18:54Speaker 4: the place. He's plays at linebacker obviously rushes off the
- 18:56Speaker 4: edge in both sides of the edge. And what I
- 18:58Speaker 4: always tell I always talked about this, when you see
- 19:01Speaker 4: a corner that can travel, that also means the other
- 19:04Speaker 4: corner has to travel too. So when Micah moves around
- 19:06Speaker 4: and learns different spots, you guys have to learn. How
- 19:09Speaker 4: has that been an adjustment? And is that also kind
- 19:11Speaker 4: of fun too to know that, Hey, I get to
- 19:13Speaker 4: line up in different spots too because he is.
- 19:15Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean, it just goes to show our versatility
- 19:18Speaker 11: from everybody in our room, because literally everybody can play
- 19:20Speaker 11: the entire line and me, I've never been a part
- 19:23Speaker 11: of that ever since forever, Like my first my three
- 19:27Speaker 11: years here with these coaches. That's just what it's been.
- 19:29Speaker 11: Everybody's been learning different spots, especially since Michaeh came in,
- 19:32Speaker 11: so and that's just our way of how we're getting better,
- 19:36Speaker 11: you know, everybody playing different spots and being able to
- 19:38Speaker 11: execute in different spots.
- 19:40Speaker 1: That's just what we got going on.
- 19:42Speaker 4: I know, Micah calls himself the Lion, you know, and
- 19:45Speaker 4: he likes to give animal nicknames to his teammates. Has
- 19:50Speaker 4: got Has he got one for you?
- 19:51Speaker 1: Are you?
- 19:52Speaker 4: Are you? Does he have a nickname for you that
- 19:55Speaker 4: you I guess something you could share maybe or Yeah.
- 20:00Speaker 1: For the most part is d A.
- 20:01Speaker 11: But we were just talking about it yesterday and I
- 20:03Speaker 11: have I had a celebration off a sack and one
- 20:06Speaker 11: time I crawled out of it and I beat in
- 20:07Speaker 11: my chest. He was like, yeah, but you gotta you
- 20:09Speaker 11: gotta take that eight and go with it, you know
- 20:11Speaker 11: what I'm saying. And I was like, yeah, you're right,
- 20:13Speaker 11: that was tough. So I'll say that eight eight. He
- 20:17Speaker 11: could play off the you know d A. It could
- 20:19Speaker 11: be D eight. I mean they could just they could combine.
- 20:24Speaker 1: That's tough. That's we could.
- 20:25Speaker 4: We could. Yeah, we could combine that tell them that.
- 20:28Speaker 4: And if so, if this t shirts made just a
- 20:30Speaker 4: little cut, that's it.
- 20:31Speaker 1: That's it for me. I got you know that.
- 20:33Speaker 4: That's awesome. But you know, you, guys, just the defense
- 20:37Speaker 4: seems like it takes on the mentality of the coordinator.
- 20:41Speaker 4: I mean, like we we even I saw a clip
- 20:43Speaker 4: just now Dan Quinn in there punching, you know, and
- 20:45Speaker 4: just getting fired up. I mean, he seems like a
- 20:48Speaker 4: guy that you are not gonna let down at all,
- 20:51Speaker 4: and and that just seems like that fuels the fire
- 20:53Speaker 4: for all of y'all.
- 20:54Speaker 11: Man, he wants to he wants the best for everybody.
- 20:56Speaker 11: He pushes us live, bro. I never had a coach
- 20:59Speaker 11: that literally is you know what I'm saying. He knows
- 21:01Speaker 11: exactly what we're capable of, and that's all he puts
- 21:04Speaker 11: in front of us. He wants us to believe that.
- 21:06Speaker 11: He wants us to have the confidence, the swagger to
- 21:08Speaker 11: go out there and be the defense that he knows
- 21:10Speaker 11: that we can be.
- 21:11Speaker 1: And our guys want the same.
- 21:12Speaker 4: Thing, all right, So we've so if you had your
- 21:15Speaker 4: your your checklist here and this is a contract you
- 21:18Speaker 4: year for you again, right, you signed a two year deals, right,
- 21:21Speaker 4: So this contract year for you? Which is which is good?
- 21:23Speaker 4: That's always, you know, exciting. I'm sure. So on your
- 21:26Speaker 4: little bingo card of things that you've done individually with
- 21:31Speaker 4: the with the touchdown and interceptions and block punt. I
- 21:34Speaker 4: think he had two block punts, right that both have
- 21:36Speaker 4: led to touchdowns? Am I right on that?
- 21:39Speaker 1: One?
- 21:40Speaker 4: One block punt?
- 21:41Speaker 1: One block?
- 21:41Speaker 4: I feel like I thought you blocked the punt that
- 21:43Speaker 4: Nashan Wright record or scored a touchdown on in Atlanta
- 21:46Speaker 4: a couple years ago. That wasn't you that got in
- 21:48Speaker 4: there on that ag?
- 21:51Speaker 1: I do? I did? I did?
- 21:52Speaker 4: But you're right, thank you?
- 21:55Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right.
- 21:56Speaker 4: Yeah, So you blocked two punts for touchdowns, blocked the
- 21:59Speaker 4: field goal?
- 21:59Speaker 1: What's next?
- 22:00Speaker 4: I mean, interception? They can put you on offense. What
- 22:02Speaker 4: would be what would be ideal for you here?
- 22:08Speaker 1: Interceptions? Cool?
- 22:10Speaker 4: How do you get that? I mean, how do you
- 22:11Speaker 4: get from what your position is? Just like this Dewar
- 22:14Speaker 4: style just snatching it out of the air or Gregory Gregory.
- 22:19Speaker 1: You know he up.
- 22:21Speaker 11: It can come in any ways, man, coverage tips, I
- 22:26Speaker 11: don't know.
- 22:27Speaker 1: Yeah, I find it. I find it.
- 22:29Speaker 4: I'm making you uncomfortable talking about yourself individually. That doesn't
- 22:32Speaker 4: seem like kind of the way how you guys operate,
- 22:35Speaker 4: which is fine, which is which is good. This is
- 22:36Speaker 4: a team thing and you guys kind of kind of
- 22:38Speaker 4: rolled together as a team. Team goal wise, there's only one.
- 22:42Speaker 1: Right one do, yeah, and that's to win it.
- 22:45Speaker 4: How how does that happen? How does this team? What
- 22:47Speaker 4: do you think it needs needs to do to kind
- 22:49Speaker 4: of get to that level?
- 22:51Speaker 1: Man?
- 22:52Speaker 11: Just just execute at a high level, understand how assignments
- 22:57Speaker 11: at all time, and be on the same page as
- 22:59Speaker 11: a as a unit. Like I said, everybody already knows
- 23:04Speaker 11: what we want. We knows we know what direction we're
- 23:06Speaker 11: trying to go in. So we just continued to taking
- 23:08Speaker 11: those steps.
- 23:09Speaker 4: Okay, give me one name. One name on defense. Doesn't
- 23:13Speaker 4: have to be a defensive end or a lineman, or
- 23:15Speaker 4: it could be a corner somebody that you've kind of
- 23:17Speaker 4: seen on defense so far that's a little under the
- 23:19Speaker 4: radar that you're like, oh, watch out for this guy,
- 23:22Speaker 4: just like somebody would have said about you four or
- 23:25Speaker 4: five years ago. Who's the guy that we're not talking
- 23:27Speaker 4: about but probably should be.
- 23:29Speaker 11: Man, I can I can give you a list of
- 23:31Speaker 11: names we got time from these last two days. Calvin
- 23:35Speaker 11: Joseph is a guy that's been flying around and land yes.
- 23:44Speaker 4: Because when I said earlier about those young rushers, you
- 23:47Speaker 4: were kind of like nod and like I kind of
- 23:48Speaker 4: thought he might be one that you were thinking of.
- 23:50Speaker 11: Yeah, those guys literally like the second day in yesterday
- 23:54Speaker 11: and they went crazy. Watched the film and they went crazy,
- 23:56Speaker 11: even and they went crazy.
- 23:58Speaker 1: So it's a lot of guys.
- 24:00Speaker 11: Man, it's gonna be a long came It's gonna be
- 24:02Speaker 11: exciting to see guys develop and grow.
- 24:04Speaker 1: And I'm all here for it, you know.
- 24:06Speaker 4: I like the wild card I think for y'all. Y'all's
- 24:10Speaker 4: defensive line group is Sam Williams. I love the fact
- 24:13Speaker 4: how Sam I think I think he was eighteenth or
- 24:16Speaker 4: nineteenth and snaps on defense but led the team into
- 24:19Speaker 4: tackles for loss. So when you get out there, you're
- 24:21Speaker 4: doing something kind of like you. He was like, if
- 24:23Speaker 4: your own special team's on the block of punt, it
- 24:25Speaker 4: just seems like you can't get all these rushers out
- 24:27Speaker 4: here on the field together.
- 24:28Speaker 11: Yeah, and he is just a freaking nature. He's strong, fast,
- 24:31Speaker 11: and he's still growing too, and he's growing at a
- 24:34Speaker 11: fast right as well. So This is gonna be a
- 24:36Speaker 11: big year for him.
- 24:37Speaker 4: All right, man, It's probably gonna be a big year
- 24:39Speaker 4: for you as well, in this entire defense. Doing really
- 24:42Speaker 4: appreciate you coming by here and then and chatting with us,

- 26:57Speaker 3: Back to Cowboys storyline, Welcome back.
- 27:06Speaker 4: Final segment here of Cowboys storyline with Nick Eatman and
- 27:11Speaker 4: the guys mowing in the background here. I'm sorry about that,
- 27:15Speaker 4: but that's just the way he's got to keep these
- 27:17Speaker 4: feels nice. I call Mo Claiborne back here making it happen.
- 27:21Speaker 4: But first segment had Derek Eagleton and Dorance Armstrong here
- 27:26Speaker 4: for the second and then some really great stuff. But
- 27:28Speaker 4: this last one, this will be about you, guys. And
- 27:31Speaker 4: this is what this show is going to be. If
- 27:32Speaker 4: you if this is the first time that you've heard
- 27:34Speaker 4: this show, this is our second episode. And just just
- 27:37Speaker 4: let me reiterate, this is about the fans. This is
- 27:39Speaker 4: about you guys. When we get back to the Star,
- 27:41Speaker 4: there will be a lot of calls from on the
- 27:45Speaker 4: phone lines, tweets like I've got right now, some text messages,
- 27:49Speaker 4: We've got some cool stuff working here, So we really
- 27:51Speaker 4: want to make this all about the fans as much
- 27:54Speaker 4: as possible out here at training. Can't make a few
- 27:56Speaker 4: exceptions getting some players in here, but I do want
- 27:59Speaker 4: to make sure we get some is gonna kind of
- 28:00Speaker 4: roll through some of these questions. You guys did a
- 28:02Speaker 4: great job. We'll see how many I can get in
- 28:04Speaker 4: the next few minutes here, all right, ej His question
- 28:08Speaker 4: is Poler's gonna be eased into camp. So who's likely
- 28:11Speaker 4: getting the starter reps and who will claim the RB
- 28:14Speaker 4: two spot. I'm not one hundred percent sure that it
- 28:18Speaker 4: will be at RB two spot. I think that this
- 28:22Speaker 4: might be by committee type of thing. I think Roynald
- 28:26Speaker 4: Jones will get some work, for sure, he'll get a
- 28:28Speaker 4: chance to do that. I got my eye on Leak
- 28:31Speaker 4: Davis though. I just think he is a player that
- 28:34Speaker 4: he provides that strength that you're going to need, and
- 28:37Speaker 4: I think he probably compliments Tony Pollard more than any
- 28:42Speaker 4: other back with experience. But again, it might be a
- 28:46Speaker 4: hotthand thing. But then again, you can't keep all these
- 28:50Speaker 4: guys active. So I think Malik Davis has a shot
- 28:53Speaker 4: because I know he plays some special teams, so it'll
- 28:55Speaker 4: be interesting to see kind of where he goes into that.
- 28:59Speaker 4: All right, This is from our h Lewis. Where are
- 29:03Speaker 4: we with Beadis's contract? I think it's a sneaky need
- 29:07Speaker 4: to get done. Oh man, yes, maybe, but that kind
- 29:14Speaker 4: of makes my head hurt just thinking about adding one
- 29:16Speaker 4: more guy. I mean, you know, the pieces to the
- 29:19Speaker 4: pie here. I mean, Trayvon just got a huge slice,
- 29:23Speaker 4: Zach wants one, ced once one, Terrence Steele's gonna have one.
- 29:28Speaker 4: You're right, it's a sneaky, good, need to get done
- 29:32Speaker 4: type of deal, but it might it might take a
- 29:35Speaker 4: little bit, you know, into into the offseason. You know,
- 29:39Speaker 4: he might be one. This is his fourth year, so
- 29:42Speaker 4: he could be a free agent at the end of
- 29:45Speaker 4: the season. I just think a lot of that might
- 29:48Speaker 4: depend on how it goes this year. I mean, you
- 29:50Speaker 4: just cannot sign everyone, and this might be one. And
- 29:54Speaker 4: it all depends on if he's willing to play ball,
- 29:55Speaker 4: if he if he wants to be here for a while,
- 29:57Speaker 4: and it takes a deal, a longer term deal, but
- 30:00Speaker 4: I think it might have to go into next the
- 30:03Speaker 4: next offseason there.
- 30:04Speaker 1: All right.
- 30:05Speaker 4: This is from Jeff three two seven eight one two zero.
- 30:09Speaker 4: As the season plays out well. The story of Zeke
- 30:12Speaker 4: not being here for short yardage in goal line play
- 30:15Speaker 4: out like the year that they cut Dazz and they
- 30:18Speaker 4: had receiver by committee. I believe that was two thousand
- 30:21Speaker 4: and eighteen, and did I hope not. I mean that
- 30:25Speaker 4: was bad. I mean that they had to in the
- 30:26Speaker 4: middle of the year go trade for Amari. It was
- 30:29Speaker 4: twenty eighteen. I I don't think it'll play out like that,
- 30:32Speaker 4: but it's it's it's interesting. Somebody's gonna have to pick
- 30:35Speaker 4: up third and one, third and two. You've got to
- 30:37Speaker 4: be able to move the chains. Don't rule out that
- 30:40Speaker 4: guy being Dak Prescott that gets the ball, especially if
- 30:44Speaker 4: they're not changing the rules on the push from the
- 30:48Speaker 4: back like the Eagles have done. Maybe they do that
- 30:51Speaker 4: and that might be something that we see on some
- 30:54Speaker 4: of those third and one, fourth and one type of situations.
- 30:57Speaker 4: All right, let's go back to Brett Ben which young
- 31:01Speaker 4: guys have caught your eye in the first two days
- 31:03Speaker 4: of camp. For me personally, it has been Tolbert. I've
- 31:06Speaker 4: been seeing a lot of reps with the ones and two.
- 31:08Speaker 4: Tolbert has looked good. There's no doubt about it. Jalen
- 31:11Speaker 4: Marino Cropper, rookie free agent. He's looked pretty good. I
- 31:17Speaker 4: like what I've seen from him, and like I said
- 31:19Speaker 4: the other day, receivers kind of do that a little bit.
- 31:23Speaker 4: John Stevens the tight end ish receiver type guys. They
- 31:29Speaker 4: listed him a receiver. He's working with the tight ends
- 31:32Speaker 4: as a tight end number forty eight, I believe forty nine.
- 31:36Speaker 4: But he's looked pretty good as well. Again, we'll see
- 31:39Speaker 4: when the pads come on, but so far, some of
- 31:42Speaker 4: the receivers have looked good. There all right, Reggie Reid
- 31:45Speaker 4: his question, what are your impressions of the rookie class
- 31:48Speaker 4: so far? Especially the picks after the third round. Until
- 31:54Speaker 4: the pads come on, it's tough to see what awesome
- 31:58Speaker 4: Richards is doing or junior Fijoko Eric Scott had an
- 32:04Speaker 4: interception early in the first day. He's given up some
- 32:08Speaker 4: plays as well with Deuce, Like, yeah, he looks good.
- 32:14Speaker 4: You know, he looks good. He makes he makes plays
- 32:16Speaker 4: and he runs around and you know, and and he
- 32:19Speaker 4: doesn't get hit. But let's see what happens when when
- 32:22Speaker 4: when that does occur. So it's early, not to dodge
- 32:26Speaker 4: the question, but some of these guys look good. But
- 32:29Speaker 4: still it's too early in the game to talk about that.
- 32:32Speaker 4: And next question, this is like a perfect segue right
- 32:36Speaker 4: into it. Thank you SBD at Powerlifting forty one. That's
- 32:41Speaker 4: that could be my handle as well, but it isn't SBD.
- 32:44Speaker 4: All right, what could you see being more likely Duce
- 32:47Speaker 4: Vaughn winning RB two or Eric Scott winning CB four.
- 32:53Speaker 4: Most likely would probably be Eric Scott being the fourth corner.
- 33:00Speaker 4: But this is why it's interesting with Deuce RB two.
- 33:06Speaker 4: He might get the second most reps in a game
- 33:10Speaker 4: or snaps or whatever, behind Pollard. But if something knock
- 33:15Speaker 4: on wood happens to Pollard, Deuce isn't I don't think
- 33:19Speaker 4: gonna be your starter. So somebody would leap frog him
- 33:23Speaker 4: and take those reps. So you can call it RB
- 33:25Speaker 4: two if you want. But I think there's just gonna
- 33:27Speaker 4: be a specific role for him, and a lot of
- 33:32Speaker 4: these questions are about Deuce. I'll keep it going here, LLJ.
- 33:36Speaker 4: Can Hunter, Lipke and Deuce really make the fifty three?
- 33:40Speaker 4: I feel like the running back room is super stacked.
- 33:42Speaker 4: I'd love to see them make it. Mostly Hunter, I
- 33:45Speaker 4: don't know about super stacked. There's a lot of question marks.
- 33:48Speaker 4: There's a lot of question marks after Tony if any
- 33:50Speaker 4: of these guys will make it again. Those guys are
- 33:55Speaker 4: like niche players, and I don't know if you can
- 33:58Speaker 4: how many of those you can have on offense? Think
- 34:00Speaker 4: about it, Think about Cavante Turpin. How many guys can
- 34:04Speaker 4: you have on your offense that don't do a lot
- 34:06Speaker 4: of other things? And we don't know what Hunter Lipke
- 34:09Speaker 4: can do just yet. He's intriguing. He's gonna be fun
- 34:13Speaker 4: to watch deuces as well. Not sure how they're all
- 34:17Speaker 4: gonna play together. It'll be fun to see, but I
- 34:20Speaker 4: think it's gonna have to take creativity from the offensive
- 34:24Speaker 4: coordinators to kind of figure all that out. All right,
- 34:26Speaker 4: I'm trying to fly through some questions here. All right,
- 34:30Speaker 4: Andrew d Weiss, who do you think is in position
- 34:33Speaker 4: to have a breakout year for the Cowboys? Also? Who
- 34:35Speaker 4: do you think may have a down year compared to last?
- 34:40Speaker 4: Nobody wants to answer that. Who wants to have a
- 34:43Speaker 4: down year? I mean, I you don't see that on
- 34:49Speaker 4: the horizon. I mean it's hard. It's hard to see that.
- 34:53Speaker 4: I'll say, ceeedee lamb one hundred and seven catches. I
- 34:56Speaker 4: only think he's gonna have one hundred and four. That's
- 34:58Speaker 4: just what it is. I think he's gonna go down
- 35:00Speaker 4: to one hundred and four and that's gonna be a
- 35:02Speaker 4: down year for him because Gallup's gonna have more. Cooks
- 35:05Speaker 4: is gonna have more. So I'm putting it in there
- 35:08Speaker 4: and hopefully the sarcasm is flowing through there so there's
- 35:12Speaker 4: not some headline out there that I'm expecting a down
- 35:16Speaker 4: year for see. I think Seed he's gonna be great.
- 35:18Speaker 4: I don't know who's gonna have a down year. You know,
- 35:21Speaker 4: they always surprise you there. Who's gonna have a breakout year.
- 35:26Speaker 4: Jake Ferguson to me, is a guy that might he
- 35:29Speaker 4: might take over and be like a really really good
- 35:32Speaker 4: player at tight end. I know they drafted Scoonmaker, but
- 35:36Speaker 4: I have some feelings about Jake Ferguson that he might
- 35:39Speaker 4: be that guy to really take it to that to
- 35:43Speaker 4: that next level. All right, Sean Harder, Who do you
- 35:46Speaker 4: think will lead the Cowboys and interceptions this upcoming season?
- 35:50Speaker 4: Diggs Trayvon Diggs. I mean that's not a hard one,
- 35:53Speaker 4: but I think I think he's gonna have the ball
- 35:55Speaker 4: throw in his way a lot more because of Gilmore
- 35:57Speaker 4: and I do think he's got wide receiver type. Han
- 36:00Speaker 4: we saw that two years ago. We've seen it. I mean,
- 36:03Speaker 4: that's a lot of interceptions. I believe he's got seventeen
- 36:05Speaker 4: interceptions three years. Yeah, he can catch the football, and
- 36:09Speaker 4: I think he'll he'll probably have the most rains with
- 36:14Speaker 4: a Z. What is something you'd like to see Ceedee
- 36:17Speaker 4: Lamb improve on this season? We just talked about him
- 36:20Speaker 4: having a quote unquote down year. What can he improve on?
- 36:25Speaker 4: You know, it's I think that he's going to be
- 36:28Speaker 4: playing in the slot a lot too. He's going to
- 36:31Speaker 4: move around a little bit. I think that the tackle
- 36:34Speaker 4: after I mean, I'm sorry, the run after catch, you know,
- 36:37Speaker 4: the yak if you will, that's one where I'd like
- 36:40Speaker 4: to see that just a little bit more. When I
- 36:42Speaker 4: saw the highlights of him, I remember game against Kansas State, Oklahoma,
- 36:46Speaker 4: Kansas State. He was just whipping through people there, cut
- 36:50Speaker 4: like a hitch and took it eighty yards. I get
- 36:52Speaker 4: Kansas State's not on the NFL schedule. I get that,
- 36:55Speaker 4: but I do think that that's something we saw a
- 36:58Speaker 4: lot in college, and I think that's just another part
- 37:00Speaker 4: of his game that he can take to another level.
- 37:03Speaker 1: Here.
- 37:03Speaker 4: All right, one more question here, Kirk PC kind of
- 37:09Speaker 4: a Hall of Fame question is once Darren Woodson is in,
- 37:14Speaker 4: it's eventually gonna happen, he says. And man, I hope
- 37:16Speaker 4: so is he the last of the era of the
- 37:19Speaker 4: Cowboys of that area to go to Canton. My hope
- 37:21Speaker 4: is a certain snickers eating offensive tackle makes it one day.
- 37:26Speaker 4: But that may be wishful thinking on my part. It's
- 37:28Speaker 4: wishful thinking on my part as well. I don't understand
- 37:32Speaker 4: why not. I really don't. Six time Pro bowler Nate Newton,
- 37:35Speaker 4: six time Pro bowler, and he anchored that offensive line.
- 37:39Speaker 4: People like to say, oh, Larry Allen, but Nate was
- 37:42Speaker 4: there for the first two and he was there for
- 37:45Speaker 4: all three, and I thought he brought an attitude. He
- 37:51Speaker 4: was a great player, obviously, but he brought that offensive line,
- 37:54Speaker 4: took it to another level. I'd like to see him
- 37:56Speaker 4: in the Ring of Honor, of course, but I do
- 38:00Speaker 4: think he's a Hall of Fame player. I really do.
- 38:03Speaker 4: You always say, can you tell the story of the
- 38:05Speaker 4: team and all that and the success without him? You
- 38:09Speaker 4: can't tell the Cowboys success without the offensive line. And
- 38:12Speaker 4: I don't think you can tell the offensive line without Nate,
- 38:14Speaker 4: So yeah, and I really hate that. Can you tell
- 38:16Speaker 4: the story of the league without this guy? I hate that?
- 38:18Speaker 4: How long is the story? Because I've written some short stories,
- 38:21Speaker 4: I've written books, so I mean, tell me how long
- 38:23Speaker 4: the story is and I can tell you. But I
- 38:24Speaker 4: think Nate Newton should be included Ring of Honor, Hall
- 38:27Speaker 4: of Fame. He should also be included in this desk,
- 38:30Speaker 4: which is going to happen next week when he gets
- 38:32Speaker 4: here to camp and we can maybe talk about that.
- 38:34Speaker 4: All right, What a fun show this has been. I
- 38:38Speaker 4: wish I could get more of the questions. Keep saying
- 38:40Speaker 4: it's gonna be a fan show, and it has been.
- 38:42Speaker 4: We want to get more and more of that. But
- 38:44Speaker 4: it's time to wrap this one up, so until next time.
- 38:47Speaker 4: We'll be back next week on Monday. See who the
- 38:51Speaker 4: guest is going to be there, and I'll promise you
- 38:53Speaker 4: to get more questions as well. This has been Cowboys storyline.
- 38:57Speaker 4: See you next time.
- 38:59Speaker 2: This has been at sup of Dallascowboys dot Com and
- 39:02Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
