  Speaker 1: Welcome to our program on Sports Radio AM thirteen under
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: the Zone. My name is Craig Wait. Thanks so much
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: for joining us. Glad to have you with us today.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: And us, of course includes the producer of this program.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: He's Cameron D. Parker.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: The D on the birth certificate stands for Dallas or,
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: in the case of last night, the D stands for
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: don't touch the block punt. Now, Kim says that he doesn't,
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: you know, watch the Cowboy You didn't watch us night.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: I did not, you know, I got to Here's something else.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: Here's another thing I've thought of about this whole phenomenon
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: of you refusing to watch your refusing to watch your
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: favorite football team. You know, I've gone about this all wrong.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: I've been saying all season long, Hey, you know, you
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: miss out on some big moments for them like that,
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: But you did see the craziness at the end of
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: the Washington game and some of that.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: And then what I should have been saying.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: Is you're missing out on real rare stuff like what
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: happened last night. I mean nothing, The Cowboys hadn't done
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: anything like that since Leon led in nineteen ninety three,
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: and it's rare to happen anywhere in the National Football League,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: but for Imani Warria who touched that live ball, and
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: I had to explain it. I explained it to my wife,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: explained it to Linda, explained it to my youngest son, Jason,
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: who didn't quite.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Understand the rule. The rule is simple.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: If whether a punt is blocked or not, what if
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: it goes forward and crosses the line of scrimmage. It's
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: a live ball. It's just like a regular punt or
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: even like an onside kick. It's a live ball.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: You can touch it if you want to. But if
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: you touch it and.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: You don't field it, like what happened with a warriaight,
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: it's a live ball. And instead of the Cowboys having
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: the ball around the Cincinnati forty yard line with just
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: under two minutes to go and a chance to go
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: in and win the game, Cincinnati gets it back, they
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: drive down and of course they hit the long pass
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: Chris Collins. Were just called it boom, and then it
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: went in for the touchdown to Jamar Chase, and defeat
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: is snatched from the jaws of victory for the Cowboys.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: So you missed out on some of those rarities that
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: happens by not watching this football team.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but it happens to your favorite team, so it's
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: not as fun if you're on the receiving end of
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: said block punt.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: Now, if you're Bengals fan, that's probably fantastic, even though
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: you're still only what five and eight this season. Now,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: when you're like the team that botched it, then it's like, yeah,
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: it's not And the win I can just hear you
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: recap it.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, okay.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: And when the Bengals winning, it gave him a chance
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: a two percent chance to make the playoffs. In case
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: you're wondering, the lost Cowboys are still mathematically alive, it
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: dropped them to a zero point two percent chance to
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: make the playoffs.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: Are we alives to get the first overall pick? That's
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: my question. That's what I care more about out at
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: this point.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, listen, there's different ways to look at it.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: Like you said, when it happens to your own team
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: is not much fun. I think back then, this happened
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: before I was alive, so I can't really, you know,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: a compliment, comment on it as intelligently as I could
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: if I were alive. But I've read all the history
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: stuff about the incredible the shot heard around the world
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: when the Giants beat the Dodgers in the nineteen fifty
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: one Nationallygue playoff, as the Dodgers had a thirteen and
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: a half game lead on the Giants in August, they
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: were in fifth places. They come all the way back
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: and the Dodgers didn't play poorly down the stretch. They
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: played about five hundred ball, but the Giants went thirty
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: seven and seven and caught him.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: And they had a best of three playoff, and.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: The Giants won Game one, and the Dodgers won Game two,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: and then it was Game three at the Polo Grounds,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: and it looked like the Dodgers that had won four
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: to one going to the bottom of the ninth and
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: the Giants get a base hit in a sint in
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: a double and now it's four to two, and then
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: there's a walk and then Bobby Thompson hits the what's
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: called shot heard around the world, the famous three run
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: walk off home run iron speed the Dodger. So you
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: know it's in sixty two, they had another playoff when
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: they tied in the National League and they were a
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: game of piece and the Dodgers were up four to
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: going to the top of the ninth in LA where
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: they only needed to get the three outs, and the
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Giants scored four runs off of tiring Sandykofax and the
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: bullpen and they won. So I've read about those things.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: I was only two years old when that happened, so
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: I have no recall on that. I have, you know,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: so I understand what you're saying. When it happens to
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: your own team, it's not fun, but it's still etched
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: in history. It's still a part of history.
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: Bad history, bad football played by two bad teams. On
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: a very bad play I which was a block punt.
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: It was it was what fourth and twenty seven? Disgusting?
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: How do you have fourth and twenty seven as the
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: NFL team? The punt is blocked, and the thing is
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: the Cowboys weren't even trying to block the punt. Jerry
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: says that they weren't even trying to block the punt.
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: So the Bengals punt unit is garbage. Cowboys blocked the
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: punt and don't even know how to recover it correctly.
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: So it's bad play, bad teams, bad football. Entertaining game, sure,
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: entertaining game. Sure if you're entertained by that, then more
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: power to do well.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: And I will admit this, I was more entertained because
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: we watched the Manning cast and Bill Belichick was pretty
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: good on that. John Legend was really good. Yeah, as
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: Bengals fan h and as they were talking about the
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: Icky Shuffle and all this stuff, and could we come
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: to find out that John Legend had actually composed a
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: song about Peyton Manning? Eli, I didn't even know about it,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: and they showed like some file footage of it. He goes,
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: how do I not know that you had a song?
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: You never mentioned it to your horne at every turn?
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: How did you? How do you this? We just find
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: this out.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: So it was that, and then Chris collins Worth comes on,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: and I'm okay with Chris collins Worth. I've never been
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: a huge fan, but I've never been really that down
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: on him anyway. Sometimes he can be a little bit
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: captain obvious on some things, but he was. He was
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: wildly entertaining, very funny, told some great stories, and then
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: he nailed it on what was going to happen when
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Theles had the ball after that block plant. First of all,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: they were just the all three of them were freaked out.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: And then he said they're gonna go deep to Jamar Chase.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: They're gonna do it and boom when they rent that
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: out and even and then he gets something.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: He's laughing.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: He goes, I'm done, takes off his headset and walks out.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: It's like a mic drop. He was done. So it
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: was a lot of fun in that respect. But I
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: understand what you're saying. If you're a Cowboy fan, it's
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: not fun. No, and five and eight is not fun,
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: and they're not going to be in the playoffs, but
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: it gets you one step close to what you want
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: is a coaching change. Although Bill Belichick is coaching the
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: North Carolina Tarty Hills, she won't get Belichick.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, which is said, maybe we can get Mike. I mean, honestly,
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: I think at this point it's gonna be in Deon Sanders.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: That seems like a Jerry Jones move where I'm at
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: now with the Cowboys. You know, there's certain sporting events
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: in games where you see the final score. Yeah, okay,
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: you know, like Titans beat the Jags, right, or Jack's
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: potitle it doesn't matter ten.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: Six Jags beat them all right? Yeah?
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: Ten six? Keep on scrolling Cowboys Bengals game this morning.
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: Thingus one, Okay, keep on scrolling. It's there's such a
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: bad football team, such a bad football team that I
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: don't even care the scores they could have won. And
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: my reaction would have been the same exact thing this morning.
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: But I mean it is good that at least I
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: hopefully we'll get a better draft pick. Number ten right
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: now looks like but maybe they'll screw it up some
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: more in winning game or two down.
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: The stretch.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: Coming up, as if to rub more salt in the
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: wound of Cameron or other Cowboy fans.
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: We're gonna hear from Jerry Jones.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: You know, he does that radio drop in appearance on
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: one to five through the Fan in Dallas every Tuesday,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: and he did so this morning. So we're gonna hear
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: from Jerry about that. We have some more from Dabo Sweeney.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: I want you to hear. We'd had some audio yesterday,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: but there we didn't get to everything, and there's some
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: good stuff in there still from the coach of the
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Clemson Tigers.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: So we'll do that three o'clock hour.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Greg Tapper, managing editor of Dave Campbell's Texas Football Magazine
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: joins us tap of course also as a co host
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: with me and with Aaron Hartigan on the high School
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: Scoreboard live on what used to be Ballet Sports Southwest
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: and before that was even Fox Sports Southwest.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: It's now called fan Duel Sports Southwest.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: But he's also going to be We've done one of these,
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: two of these together and I had a lot of fun.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: And when he serves as the color analyst to me
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: on a high school football telecast. We did it once
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: a couple of years ago when Weiss played I'm trying
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: to remember who it was. It was a game at
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: the at the field. They was two years ago and
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Weiss played. Is the playoff game? No, it was a
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: week ten game or last game of the regulars. Ship
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: was a Thursday night might have been, and they just
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: kind of whacked them. Yeah, anyway, we did we did
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: a game. We did that that game and then we
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: did we did a state championship game together and had
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: a lot of fun. Well, we're going to do a
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: couple together this year. But as a warm up, Greg
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: Teber and I are calling the west Lake North Shore
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: six a Division one state semi final game.
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: That's happening in Katie.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: That's a warm up game those two schools.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: It's a warm up for us and so and ironically,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: and I mentioned this yesterday on the show, Ironically, it'll
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: be the only six A game I do to close
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: out the year. I've been doing the six A state
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: championship games on again. It was Fox Sports South I
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: was going all the way back to the HS days,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: and then it was Prime Sports and then Fox Vallet
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: West for a long time, and then Ballet Sports Southwest
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: and now it's called FanDuel Sports Southwest, same network, just
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: different labeling on it. And I've done the six A
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: state championship games continuously since the last time I missed
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: was twenty ten. But I'm going to miss both this
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: year because it falls on the same day as the
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: Texas Clemson college football playoff game a week from Saturday,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: so duty calls obviously, I'll be here for the Texas
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: Clemson game. Our good friend, the outstanding broadcaster Ted Emrick,
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: will step in for me on those six A games,
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: So Ted's gonna do those two six A games. But
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: I am doing six of the twelve state championship games,
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: including both six man games, and then two A Division
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: two has been added to my slate since I lost
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: the two six A games, and Tepper's gonna work with
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: me on that. Two A Division two is probably gonna
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: be Munster and Shiner is probably going to be that.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: I think both will probably win their game. I Bringmond
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: could beat Chiner. Munster I think certainly will win in
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: state semifinal. And so then we got that, and they
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: got the three A Division one game and the four
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: A Division one and the five A Division two. So
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: I've got those other state championship games. But Tepper is
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: gonna work with me on that one, so he'll join us.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: We'll talk more than high school football, clearly, as we
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: always do. We start off with college football. We'll do that.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: We'll talk from college football high school football. So we
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: got a lot to get to on the program this afternoon,
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: and we're glad to have you with us right here
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: on Sports Radio AM thirteen under the Zone and where
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: you always listen to for free.
