  Speaker 1: Radio AM thirteen under the Zone. My name is Craig Way.
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Glad to have you with us here on the day
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: before Thanksgiving. Yes, we're working today. We are, and then
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: off tomorrow and Friday, although off as a relative term
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: Friday with long word basketball, and then of course overdue
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: College station on Saturday for the restoration of the Loan
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Star Showdown rivalry between Texas and Texas A and M.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: We have plenty of time to get to that, and
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: we will this afternoon on the program. We of course
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: includes the producer of the program, Cameron de Parker. The
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: D on the birth certificate stands for Dallas, as in
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: his favorite pro football team, who will play? Who will
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: play Tomorrow, as they have done every Thanksgiving since nineteen
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: sixty six, with the exception of two years seventy five
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: and seventy seven, they had.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: The Cardinals on. For some reason.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: The Cardinals were pretty good when they were in Saint
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: Louis for a little stretch there in the mid seventies,
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: and so they had them instead of the Cowboys in
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: seventy five and seventy seven. Then, realizing the error of
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: their ways, because those were two years when the Cowboys
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl. Seventy five is a wildcard team,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: and then seventy seven when they won the Super Bowl.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl twelve, they didn't restored the Cowboys to that
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: late afternoon Thanksgiving contest, and they've been going ever since,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: for good or for bad. Cameron Parker, who, by the way,
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: is pledged even though we watched some of the Cowboys
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: win that crazy went over the Commander's last Sunday, breaking
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: his vowl not to watch them. He did watch them.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: But you're you're back on the wagon. You're saying you're
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: not going to watch them tomorrow afternoon. You've got a
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: captive audience when they're playing. Captive audience? Yeah, what other
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: football game will be going on tomorrow?
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: Go for a walk, people, if you want to watch
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: Drew Lock. It's Drew Lock. It's a third string quarterback
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: for the New York Giants playing against the second string
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: quarterback for the Donas Cowboys. There's no reason anyone to
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: be watching this game. There's no reason I would even
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: call it a game.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Hey, by the way, it was it was told to
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: me at dinner last night by my oldest son.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: He has dropped the Cowboys. Now they're no longer his favorite.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: That about eight months ago.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well you still have them? Is your favorite? You
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: do you list them as your favorite?
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: A lot of work there in that sentence.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Okay, he was when he was a little kiddy, liked
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: the Jaguars, but he changed to the Cowboys, I think
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: he said thirteen years ago. Now he's done with him.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: So he and his girlfriend are going to find a
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: team to root for. And he said it can't be
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: any team that any other family member in our family
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: could root for. So that removes ms. No Rams, no Packers. Jason,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: the youngest one, that's his favorite team pack although his
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: girlfriend's from Wisconsin was a Packer fan. In fact, they
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: went to the Packers' Lions game at Lambeau a few
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: weeks ago. But it's not going to be that. He said,
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: they'll figure out a team to cheer for. So at
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: some point that's happened. No one in your family was
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: a Panther fan. That's kind of great. Well, we were
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: all out here by the time the Panthers came into existence.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: Now I have a younger brother who is retired military
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: living near Newbern, North Carolina, and he is a Panthers fan,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: but he was a Cowboys fan for many, many years,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: so he doesn't really divorce himself from that. He's also
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: married to a Patriots fan, too, so you got that.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: So all of my siblings are to some extent Cowboy
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: fans for the years that they lived in Texas. Only
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: one of my siblings still lives in Texas. I have
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: two brothers who live in North Carolina, well, one North Carolina,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: one South Carolina, just across the state line near Myrtle Beach.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: And have a sister who has just moved to South Carolina.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: She was in Hawaii for over twenty years. But yeah,
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: they all still kind of root from the Cowboy root
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: for the Cowboys from Afar.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: So anyway that happens with that.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Hey, let's tell you what's coming up from the program
• 3:48

• 3:58
  Speaker 1: about the Spurs. They one last night at Utah. They
