  Speaker 1: On the birth certificate stands for Dallas. That's his middle name,
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: as in being named for his favorite NFL team who
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: has frustrated him enough to the point where he has
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: refused to regularly watch them this season. I said regularly
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: because he watched them in time or two. It's kind
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: of mixed in a little bit, but it can mercifully
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: be said that maybe the D stands for dismissed because
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: their season is now mercifully over, and you're happy.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: About that, aren't you.
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: I would say it stands for a disaster, because what
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: a disastrous season for the Dallas Cowboys, and it continues
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: to get worse.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: Was it finished seven to ten? Something? Who?
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Hey, they were three and seven and they did win.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: What was it for their last five? I guess, so
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: you know they Okay, so they or I guess three
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: of their last fours?
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: What there they were?
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: They were three and seven and then they lost their
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: last two games, lost their last two Yeah, okay, so uh, anyway,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: they're done. There was a humorous moment yesterday in case
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: you didn't know it and didn't hear it. It happened
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: during our broadcast of the Texas women's basketball game. Cameron
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: was doing the halftime show, and it was during the
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: halftime show that Washington hit the game winning touchdown passed
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: with two seconds left. Correct, And then when and because
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: you made a remark about it on the air, because
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: Linda was listening and she got a big kick out
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: of you saying, oh, yeah, Washington just won the game.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: I think they I didn't know how they won the game,
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: but I saw the score update.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: While I was doing the yeah halftimes. Yeah, and Washington
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: the way the way you enngine was hilarious. It was.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: It was perfectly summed up the Dallas Cowboys season, I
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: thought looking after it.
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Afterwards, okay, all right, Jerry Jones was asked, is he
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: gonna make a change. Jerry Jones's ass, is he gonna
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: keep being the GM whenne we'll hear from Jerry about
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: those things coming up. They are rather predictable responses, but
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: we'll hear from Jerry a little bit later on. Clearly,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: obviously there's a lot to discuss with regard to the
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Texas Logorns, the college football Playoff summi Finals the Cotton
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Bowl in Arlington. Speaking of Jerry at Jerry World on

• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Your first time back to eighteen.
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: Stadium in Oa, like a weekend three weeks, two weeks,
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: every weeks.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: I think it will be actually be three weeks to
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: the day of.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: The last game I did, which was also a Friday,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: So I got one more Friday at at A Stadium
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: because I did those two games, the the four A
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: Division one and five A Division two state championship games
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: there on that Friday.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: The what was it the twentieth.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: I guess, uh so, yeah, you know it'll be it'll
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: be three weeks to the day there, but different booth. Yeah,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: worst booth, right, yeah, yeah, it's I've worked in worse,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: including this year at least with Jerry World. And and
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: for folks who don't know that all of the radio
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: boots are way up in the corner around into the
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: I guess it'd be the east windsor and east end
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: zone because we're member the field faces east west because
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: in the setting sun, as we know, the players have
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: to look back up through the windows because Jerry didn't
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: draw the curtains.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: So there's that.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: And interestingly enough, Tom Hart from ESPN and I were talking.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: He was were in College station when we were over there
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: for the basketball game on Saturday, and he had done
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: that First Responders Bowl between Texas State and North Texas.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Really good game.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: We got to see Drew Mestebaker, who had been a
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: backup at Vandergriff had been a starting safety and hunter
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: absolutely he'd been the backup to Deuce Adams at quarterback,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: and Tom U was given all this information about he
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: hadn't played quarterback since his freshman B team, and so
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: I texted Drew Sanders about and he said, you know
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: how sometimes the TV.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: Prep can get a little out of whack.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: He said, he played a lot as the backup at quarterback,
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: and he started.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: In JV as well. He played the game I called
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: against McNeil.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: He came in after Vandergrift kind of ran away with
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: it and garbage time Messmaker came in and played the second.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Now, yeah, yeah, so Hed, It's not like he had
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: never played it before, but boy, he looked like he'd
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: been playing his whole life. And after he played really
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: really well, and he gives North Texas some hope going
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: forward with regard to that quarterback situation for them. But anyway,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Tom Hart and I were talking about and Tom said,
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: what is it about the Metroplex and the setting sun?
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Because there was a thing at at at Gerald J.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: Ford Stadium there on the SMU campus we had guys
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: looking back up into the sun. You had that, And
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: he said, that's a thing here in the Metroplex here,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: because we know what it's like at Jerry World. But
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: the broadcast booths at AT and T Stadium are elevated
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: up pretty high and kind in the corner, so you
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: can see the whole field. The depth perception gets a
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: little challenging once a cross minfield, but you just look
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: up and there's a giant jumbo tron there.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: Do you even need a monitor in your broadcast booth
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: when you got that except.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: The well TV replays are a little bit different than
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: what they show on the booth there. But it's good
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: to have that big board there because once it gets
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: down around the thirty or so, just to be exact
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: with the yard lines, that's kind of important, and so
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: so it does help with that.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: I've talked to Brad Sham about this point.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: He said, once across his midfield, he's calling it off
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: the board because it's just hard to get the exact yardage.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: I can see it.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: I've done enough games up there out of those booths
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: where I can see it really good till about the
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: thirty yard line. Then it starts to get a little tight,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: and so then you'll you'll cheat a look up there
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: just to see exactly the yard line on it. But yeah,
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: that'll be that'll be on Friday. So we've got a
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: lot to get to with regard to the Longhorts. We're
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: gonna hear from long Wrts Head coach Steve Sarkgan from
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: some of the the media zooms that have been going
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: on in preparation for this Cotton Bowl. We're gonna hear
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: from some defensive players today. They were yesterday on display,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: and this afternoon following practice. The offensive players will speak
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: some of them, and we'll hear from them tomorrow. But
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: we're gonna hear from some long corn defensive players this
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: afternoon in the three o'clock hour, and we'll hear from
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: those players in the four o'clock hour and a little
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: bit in the three o'clock hour. In the three o'clock hour,
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: we're gonna visit with Paul Keels, big Daddy, play by
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: play voice of the Ohio State buck Eyes, good friend,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: and they call him Big Daddy up there, got great pipes,
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: great broadcaster, and so he will. He'll join us in
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: the three o'clock hour, and we'll talk about this Buckeyes
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: team and how how good they look ever since after
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: the loss to Michigan, what they've done to flip the
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: script and turn it on. So we'll visit with Paul
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: to talk about that. We do have inconceivable for a Monday,
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: as you might imagine. Yeah, we'll talk some basketball. It's
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: a tough start for this Long Corn basketball team, losing
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: in College Station to a good.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: Texas A and M team.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: They're up to number eleven, but it was tied at
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: thirty seven and a half, and then in the second
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: half A and M got way too much in the
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: paint forty eight points in the paint, and that was
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: a big part of it, and A and M pulled
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: away one by twenty then won eighty to sixty, and
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: the Texas women, still looking the part, looked really good
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: after winning that tough ball game up in Norman last
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: Thursday against a ninth wing to Oklahoma team, which by
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: the way, went to Knoxville and beat Tennessee yesterday, a
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: previously unbeaten Tennessee team. That's how big that road win
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: was for Texas on Thursday for the Texas women. And
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: then they turned around at home and just blew out
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Arkansas yesterday. They won ninety to fifty six. So the
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: Long One women are off to it to an o star.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: They have a good Alabama team coming in to face
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: them on Thursday night. Christy Curry, one time coach at
