  Speaker 1: Welcome to the program here. My name is Craig Way.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: Glad to have you with us alongside, and pleased as
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: well to have the producer, Cameron D.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: Parker alongside.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: The d on the birth certificate stands for Dallas as
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: in being named for his favorite NFL team that he
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: refuses to watch out of his own disgust and desperation
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: and frustration, so he doesn't watch him. And that is why,
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: that is why Tuesdays are special when we're on this program,
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: because during football season, we know that Jerry Jones speaks
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: on Tuesdays from our friends at one O five through
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: the Fan and Dallas for Worth. So every Tuesday I
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: make it a point to make sure the Cameron Parker
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: lifts some of that audio because I know what it
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: means to him to hear from the Cowboys owner, president
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: and general manager.
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: How you doing today? I'm doing great, Craig. Jerry's comments
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: are always just they just bring joy to my heart,
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: you know, spring joy. It's just it's comedic relief, but
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: unintentional comedic relief. You know, like we all have that
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: family member right who is just funny by nature, right,
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: They're not trying to be funny. They're just funny. Funny
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: or their verbiage or whatever they do, it's funny. It's
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: the same thing with Jerry Jones. I mean just listening
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: him answer a simple question and the you know, the
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: his phrases, his accent, just how he completely answers the
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: question with an answer that has nothing to do with
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: the question.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: It's just I love it. I just absolutely love it.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: I know. That's why I always like for you to
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: lift some of that audio.
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: We're going to hear some of that from Jerry Jones
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: today talking about his three and four Cowboys team coming
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: off the loss at San Francisco and dak Presscott and
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: all that.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: So we'll hear from Jerry coming up today.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: It is an open date obviously on the schedule for
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: the Texas Longhorns, so no Steve Sarkisian sound today tomorrow.
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: Even with the fact that the open date is on
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: the schedule. Sark does his participates in the SEC teleconference
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: with the other fifteen Southeastern Conference head football coaches, So
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: we'll hear some things from sark tomorrow Today on the program,
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: we will look at the Southeastern Conference. We'll look also
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: at where things stand for the college football Playoff. We're
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: getting close to this, and here's some signs about it.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: First of all, we update you when we have information about,
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: you know, as we draw closer to the College Football
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Playoff rankings. The first set of rankings don't come out
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: until I think it's is it one week to the
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: day or two weeks from the day? I know a
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: week from the day obviously is election day, And I'm
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: trying to remember if it's or is it is it
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: November fifth or November November seventh? On that trying to
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: find I think it's because remember it's been on Tuesdays
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: in the past. I think it starts next Tuesday on
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: the fifth. We'll get the confirmation on that. I know
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: it's November for sure. Yep, I think it's next Tuesday.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: In any event, there's still projections of the twelve teams
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: and the percentages and where they could go to get
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: into the College Football Playoff, and it has updated and
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: it has changed because of the playoff some teams Texas
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: A and M and some other teams that have increased
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: their chances. So we'll run down that. But here's another
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: sign to let you know that we're getting closer to
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: that sort of thing. Rich Clark is the executive director
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: of the College Football Playoff. Tomorrow he is doing for
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: the media a zoom where they go into greater tail
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: on the process. And I'm gonna, uh, I've been given
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: the link to that and I'm gonna I'm gonna be
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: in on that.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: And So it is November fifth. Ye I thought it
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: was it's a week, So it is.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: It's coming up a week from the day next Tuesday, right,
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: the fifth. Yeah, next Tuesday is the fifth, So that'll
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: be the first one. So Rich Clark is the election
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: it is.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: How about that? That's rather impactful, don't you think the.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: So so he is doing a zoom about how the
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: process works again in some of the criteria they're looking
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: at and all those kinds of things. Thursday, Halloween Thursday,
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Rich Clark is going to join us on the show.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: We're gonna We're gonna visit with him, the executive director
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: of the College Football Playoff on Thursday, and get his
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: thoughts on some things.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: So, so just.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: Letting you know we're heading down that road, getting in
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: a little bit quicker on that. Uh, the NBA last night,
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: did you watch any NBA last year?
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: I watched the Little Suns and Lakers. First of all,
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: I got to own apology to everybody. I thought Maning
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: cast was not an action last night. Turns out it was,
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: so apologies for the misinformation. Cam did say, yes, there's
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: no Manning cast. There was there was, But you know what,
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: here's the way I look at that. I doubt that
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: could be wrong about this. I doubt there were large
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: amounts of people who were tuning into the Giant Steelers game,
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: whether you know that hoping that there would be a
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: Manning cast, or I doubt that there were people not
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: watching because they were led to believe there wasn't.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: A Manning cast.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: In other words, my point is this, if you were
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: going to watch that game, if you're going to watch
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: Giant Steelers, you were going to watch Giants Steelers.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: You know. Now this is coming from the perspective of
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: obviously a hardcore and from very very early age Los
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: Angeles Dodgers fans. So obviously I'm swept up in the
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: whole World series and I'm watching that and I'm excited,
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: and the one went away at YadA Yadam will get
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: in all that. But my point was going to be
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: that people were either going to be watching the World Series,
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: or if they had a real abiding interest in Giant Steelers,
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: or they just don't care about baseball. And I've had
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: other people say I don't care because the Yankees and
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: Dodgers don't wanna care, and I would, and I would
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: jokingly say to him, well, you're in the minority of
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: them because they're having some of the largest numbers they've
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: ever had.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: But that's okay, that's okay.
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: They don't feel feel displaced or bad or anything like that.
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: That's your own personal choice and decision whether or not
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: you watch football or baseball or whatever. Would I have
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: watched Giants Steelers if there was no World Series game,
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: maybe some of it, and I would have checked the
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: scene if there was a Manning cast. But you know,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: I can only take so much Bill Belichick.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: Really, it just kind.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: Of wears on me by the time we get well
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: into the second quarters. It just some of his stuff
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: is good and then some of us. You know, I
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: was flipping over. I didn't find Lawrence Taylor that engaging.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: I didn't see him. I saw Cower, Yeah, and he's okay, cow.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: You can watch him on CBS, right exactly. That's kind
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: of how it was.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: But I was mainly obviously watching the World Series, but
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: I was flipping over and catching in. I mean, there's
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: lots of three minute breaks in the World Series every
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: half inning, so you had a chance to flip over
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: and watch a lot of.
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: That stuff, like an ABC college football game. Another four
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: minute break, there you go.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: So anyway, there's NFL to discuss now here at tweak eight,
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: so we'll talk about that.
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: I mentioned college football as well, and I'm guessing you
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: feel pretty good. After the Dodgers took a three to
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: zero lead, now now pushing New York. I mean they
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: had Jeter thrown out the first pitch, they pulled out
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: all the stops everything.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Who was who did.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: That?
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Joe?
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Fat Joe came out, you know, just after Cube
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: did it the other night at Dodger Stadium like that,
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: So they had fat Joe last night, do it? I mean,
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: they pulled out all the stops and then the Dodgers
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: still got to win. Do I feel I think the
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: keywords there are pretty good. And the reason why I
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: say pretty good is because it's never happened before the
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: team has come back in the World Series from down
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: oh three to win it. There is, however, a blueprint
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: for a team in a best of seven baseball playoff series.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: Having done it was twenty years ago Red Sox Yankees
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: when the Red Sox were down three games to none. Ironically,
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: what's often mentioned is what flipped the switch on that
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: whole turnaround was Dave Roberts, then in the twilight of
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: his career, stealing second base for the Red Sox in
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Game four, and it ultimately led to them coming back
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: to win the game.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: And then it touched off the whole big comeback.
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: And I did find it because I watched all the
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: postgame coverage like on FS one on yeah, and then
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: also I watched the Dodgers, you know, their post game
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: coverage on Sports Net at LA and with no more
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Garciapara and Oral Herscheiser and all the interviews that were
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: coming from the locker room and all that other kind
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: of stuff, and they carry the news conferences. Well, Dave
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: Roberts is sitting there and a guy asks him, knowing
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: that you've been on the other side of this before,
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: down O three, what do you think the Red Soix,
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: I mean, the Yankees are saying on how they can
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: get it turned and now sitting on this side of it.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: What's your message?
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: He goes, Well, first of all, I'm not going to
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: even talk about that other side of it. He goes,
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: I've been over there, I know, and I'm not giving
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: anybody anything any words on that he said. But they
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: said they just have to keep their front on the gas.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: It's a bullpen game the night for LA. So the
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: pitching advantage definitely goes to the Yankees. We've been saying
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: this all along, that the starting pitching advantage was going
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: to New York. It just hasn't lived up to the
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: building on that tonight. Definitely, with heel on the mound
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: for New York, a bona fide started in a really
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: good pitcher, and the Dodgers are going with a bullpen game.
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: It's a box of chocolates. It only takes one being
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: off the game to change it all. So do I
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: feel pretty good?
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: Yes?
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: But you know I also know this, If the Dodgers
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: don't win the World Series now, it will be the
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: greatest collapse in professional sports. I know.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: I'm just I'm stating it like it is.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: If they don't win the World Series now, it's the
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: greatest collapse in professional sports.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: History. It is.
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: It just is so they know they still have work
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: to them, need to say it. It just is to
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: avoid that they got to get one win. They got
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: four shots to get one win. So that's where that is,
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: all right. Up next, we'll hear from Jerry Jones his
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: thoughts on his Cowboys team and other stuff from his
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: conversation on the radio in Dallas this morning here on
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: sports Radio Am thirteen of the zone of the iHeart
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: Radio app.
