• 0:22
  Speaker 2: Parker.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: The D on the birth certificate stands for Dallas as
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: in his prey favorite pro football team that he has
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: pledged not to watch this season. So we didn't watch
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: them yesterday because they didn't play yesterday.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: That made it very easy.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: We were able to just settle back in and watch some
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: NFL and not worry about having to change the channel
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: if the Cowboys were on.
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: I actually got to be out of F one last,
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: didn't you. But my dad did have the red zone
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: pulled up at F one, so I got to enjoy that. Actually,
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: he said to me on Sunday, goes, so, who are
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: the Cowboys losing to today? And I was like, don't worry, Dad,
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: They're off this week bye week. Now did they win
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: the bye week?
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: We don't know. Who knows remains to be seen.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: I guess we'll find out when they go to the
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: go to play the forty nine Ers next.
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, must win game for both teams, it feels like,
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: especially after I went out in the San Francisco against
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: Kansas City yesterday.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely so.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: Your dad sounds equally disgusted with the team that he
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: named you after.
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: I know, is is any Cowboys fan not disgusted to
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: what's happening to this franchise right now? Hey, Dak Prescott
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: got married during the bye week. Good good for him,
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: find some happiness hopefully.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, speaking of happiness or lack thereof, obviously there's a
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: relative absence of that coming out of the game Saturday
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: night at dk R Texas Memorial Stadium with the Long
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: Horns falling to the Georgia Bulldogs thirty to fifteen. We
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: have a lot to get into about that, obviously. This
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: is a Long Horns Monday edition of the program, and
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: what Longhorns.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: Monday includes is, but is not limited to, is.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: The broadcast the live broadcast of Sea of Steve Sarkisian's
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: weekly news conference at eleven thirty on Monday mornings. We
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: brought it to you live this morning here on the
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: Zone at eleven thirty this morning, we begin our coverage
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: at eleven am. My cardbaal Harge joins me and we
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: begin our coverage at eleven and of course Sark goes
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: to the mic at eleven thirty, and then we bring
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: you the news conference from eleven thirty to noon. Now,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: we realize not everybody can hear it then as it
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: airs live. That's why what we do with this program
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: is to bring it back to you in sound bite form.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: You'll hear every answer to every question that Sarks.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: So you just won't hear it in its long form
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: where let's.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: Go over here, Cedric blah blah blah and the question.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: We'll set it up for you and tell you what
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: the question is, and then you'll hear everyone of Sarks
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: answers to these questions. So we'll have that, and I'll
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: look back at the loss to Georgia, and I'll look
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: ahead to getting ready for the Vanderbilt Commodores, so that's
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: coming up. We'll have responses from Sark in all three
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: hours of the program this afternoon. Also this hour of Inconceivable,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: we take a look at some of the bizarre and
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: weird nature of stories. It's a strange headlines today, some
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: headlines that by themselves would stand the test of time.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Like for example, there used to be a service called
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: the lower Case I think it was, and it was
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: and it was actual newspaper headlines that the headline writer
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: probably wishes that he or she had not written later
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: after it appeared in print. For example, there used to
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: be a really good marathon runner for years. His name
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: was Craig Virgin. That was that was his name, and
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: the headline when he had committed to run in a
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: certain race was Virgin to provide weekend excitement. So there
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: was there was some of that, but we do have it.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: It was a couple of bizarre headl so we'll have
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: we'll have that.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: I thought you were going with the bizarre headlines from
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: the Athletic talking about start creating controvert quarterback controversy.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: Would this it now?
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: No?
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: Did the Athletic really really have got an email first
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: thing this morning? And there was a few other people
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: also on social media saying the same thingsh I think
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: just trying to get likes her people.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, right, there were people that were that were talking
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: about that on during the game on Saturday.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: I can't believe he's doing that. What's he doing? It's
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: hoped it up.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: The man has control of his quarterback room and his
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: football team, his locker room as well. So we're going
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: to hear Sark talk about that coming up in the
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: press conference.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: But we do have inconceivable.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: We also will take a look at the weekend around
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: the National Football League. Anything just other than the way
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: that the Chiefs dispatched the forty nine ers, was there
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: anything that really just struck you?
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: It might be just recency buy, but what Pittsburgh did
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: to the Jets last night, Yeah, I thought DeVante Adam
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: was going to save the offense. Craig by the way,
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: I think they're on the same exact pace in terms
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: of points scored through a week eight as they were
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: last season with Sack Wilson as their quarterback. And I
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: think they've only cracked twenty points once this season. That's
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: what Aaron Rodgers and Breese Hall and Garrett Wilson and
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: now DeVante Adams. So we'll see a team that I
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: thought was going to be a playoff team now two
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: and five.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: I had somebody text me and said there was a
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: I haven't seen the highlight and for a very good
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: reason that which Hawk's plained in a minute, that Garrett
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: Wilson had a ball bounce off of his what was
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: his figh?
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: Oh, I didn't see that and got picked off. Didn't
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: see that as one of that a ricochet that got
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: picked off. So it was that would sum up the
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: Jets season. Yeah, that's what That's what somebody said. It
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: looked like that, and that was. In fact, I'll say
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: exactly what it was.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: It was.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: I just want to want to make sure I've got
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: this right because it was a good description of it.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson just had the worst play I've ever seen
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: from him. The ball hit his chest and got picked
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: even worse. Yeah, So firing Robert Solid did not change anything, it.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: Appears apparently not, at least not yet anyway. So there's that.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: We now have a World Series matchup. Major League Baseball
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: is down to two teams and it's two of the
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: most tory franchises in history. It's the most off and
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: played World Series in history. For the twelfth time in
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: baseball history, the New York Yankees and the Los Angeles
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: Dodgers are going to meet in the World Series. They
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: have met eleven prior times the Yankees and one on
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: eight of the eleven. However, I should point out this
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: sounds almost like an Ou fan when you mentioned the
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: Texas overall record, and they go well in the last
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: ten years, in the last twenty when they do that.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: The Yankees have the overall edge eight series wins to
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: three against the Dodgers, but they've split the last four
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: going back to nineteen siightes and and a good demarcation
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: is since the team moved from Brooklyn to Los Angeles
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: in nineteen fifty eight, they've split the last four, the
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Dodgers winning in sixty three, the Yankees in seventy seven
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: to seventy eight, the Dodgers winning the last time they
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: met nineteen eighty one. That's the last time they've met,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: so anyway, Gene Watson, our resident baseball insider, who did
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: call this matchup after we allowed him to reset, because
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: remember originally he said it was going to be the
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: Padres and Guardians, and then after the Padres got knocked
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: out by the Dodgers, allowed him waffle space and told
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: him he could re sit. So he said, okay, I'm
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: going with the Dodgers and I said, to your sticking
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: with the Guardians, and he said, no, I'm not.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: I'm I'm switching to the Yankees.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: So he ended up calling that correctly, that the Yankees
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: would beat the Guardians and that the Dodgers would beat
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: the Mets.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: And so it's Los Angeles and New York.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: But we'll get his thoughts on this upcoming match of
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: the World Series. Does not begin until Friday, and it
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: will at Dodgers Stadium. I think I speak for all
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: of Americas, sing Correig. We were all rooting for the
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: Dodgers in this World Series. Really, Yeah, I don't think
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: anyone likes the Yankees. I know a lot of people
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: who hate the Dodgers, but but might hate the Yankees
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: more even more.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So to some people, you know, that's the old
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: thing about saying where they they when they wish to say,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: who do you?
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: Who? Do you want to win? What I want to
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: happen is a meteor to strike either stadium.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: That's that's that's what That's what some people say. I
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: I got a lot of Facebook react last night because
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: I was in Los Angeles last night. Lynda and I
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: flew out yesterday morning. We landed The first thing we did,
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: we went to Randy's Donuts to get a donut. You know,
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: the giant horns of great donuts. So we went to
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Randy's Donut to get a donort, and then we were
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: doing some driving around looking. When it came lunchtime, we
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: went to Mel's Drive In. This trip was not all
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: about eating and food, but we did go to Mel's
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: Drive in. If you if you, if Mel's Drive In
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: sounds familiar, It's an iconic drive in restaurant. It opened
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: in nineteen forty seven, best known for being the drive
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: in in American Graffiti, the movie American Graffiti. And there's
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: big wall mural photos of George Lucas in there because
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: he directed it, and a young George Lucas before his
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: hair turned gray, and there's there's big pictures.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: Anyway, I put it.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: I put it on the Facebook poach that I had there,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: so we ate there, had lunch there. But then, in
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: a move that really surprised a lot of folks, folks
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: thought that I had gone to La to see Game
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: six of Dodgers Mets, or at the very least would
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: have been out there to see my favorite pro football team,
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: the Rams play the Raiders now, and I've explained this
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: before on the air when folks have asked me why
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: do you like those two teams, it's for completely unrelated reasons,
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: has nothing to do with Los Angeles. In fact, normally
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: I'm not a big fan of LA but Dodgers. When
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: I was a kid, little kid, my dad was a
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: Yankees fan. He went to the nineteen fifty two and
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: fifty three World Series when he was stationed the Army
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: in New York, and used to tell me stories about
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: the Yankees and Dodgers meeting in the World Series. My
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: favorite color at the time was like blue, like a
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: Royal blue or Dodger blue. First package of baseball cards
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: I opened up, Bill Russell, the Dodger shortstop, was there,
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: and when I wrote off to the Major League teams,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: the Dodgers were the ones to answer. I got this
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: big packet full of stuff in an autograph photo from
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: Willie Davis.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: So I was stuck on that similar thing with the Rams.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: Around the same time, when I was eight nine years old,
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: we would write letters off to the NFL teams. I'd
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: try to get autograph photos, and I wrote to three
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: or four teams.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: The only one who responded to the Rams.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: I got this big eight by ten black and white
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: glossy of Roman Gabriel, the quarterback and has had a
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: champ never quits Roman Gabel. It's probably somebody from the
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: you know, promotion staff that signed it. But that's okay.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: So I was hooked on the Rams ever since. So
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: it had really had nothing to do with the city
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: of Los Angeles. But I was out in LA and
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: I didn't see either the Rams against the Raiders, although
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: we listened to most of it driving around in the car.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: You talk about burnt toast versus stale bread. I mean,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: you talk about two teams that are just floundering. The
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Dodger the Rams found a way to win the game.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: They did twenty to fifteen, but it was it was
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: it was kind of an ugly game. They're two and
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: four and the Raiders two and five, I think, and
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: the Dodgers. The reason I didn't go, yeah, I would
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: have had to find a way to get tickets and
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff. But more importantly, I had
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: planned a trip a few months ago as a surprise
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: for my wife, Linda, And this was before the SEC
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: teach schedule.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: Came out, Before we knew it was going to go
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: go down.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: One of her all time musical heroes in her life
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: has been Joni Mitchell, the great Canadian songstress Joni Mitchell,
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: and Joni Mitchell's eighty one now does very few shows.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: She'd had some real serious health issues back a few
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: months ago, but she had these two shows at the
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: Hollywood Bowl one Saturday, one Sunday, and I thought, that's
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: going to work.
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: We're gonna do it.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: So I ended up getting tickets, and of course we
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: see the SEC schedule and it was going to be
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: after the Georgia game, but we flew out early yesterday morning.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: We had a fabulous time at the show. I'll tell
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: you more about the show a little bit later on.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: I've had some people ask me for a concert review.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you a little bit more about it later on.
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: And then we raced back to Lax. We were listening
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: to the Dodger postgame show after they won the National
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: League Championship Series, and I did have it during intermission.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: It was in the ninth inning, so we watched the
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: ninth inning home and then we flew home on a
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: red eye, landed about eight twenty this morning, got the
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: car straight over to campus and there we are jumping
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: in with the Monday news conference. So anyway, I'll tell
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: you more about the concert a little bit later on,
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: but up next we're going to hear from Longhorn's head coach,
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Steve Sarkisian, And we continue here on sports Radio AM
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: thirteen under the Zone and the iHeartRadio app.
