They can have meetings I guess 0:03:19.120 --> 0:03:21.120 with the coaches, but the coaches can't be on the 0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:22.840 field actually instructing them. 0:03:23.240 --> 0:03:25.520 Okay, so all right, good attendance. 0:03:25.560 --> 0:03:27.519 So yeah, largely. 0:03:28.639 --> 0:03:29.480 Who's not here? 0:03:30.160 --> 0:03:34.720 Citie Lamb and Micah Parker were the two notable names, 0:03:34.800 --> 0:03:36.680 which is not a surprise, not. 0:03:36.800 --> 0:03:40.880 A surprise, But Jesse, how big of a deal is that? 0:03:41.520 --> 0:03:44.520 And it seems like it's not. You're not gonna make 0:03:44.520 --> 0:03:45.240 a big deal out of this. 0:03:45.320 --> 0:03:47.960 I mean, we know how you like to no trash 0:03:48.000 --> 0:03:50.640 a couple of one of these guys, one. 0:03:50.040 --> 0:03:53.160 Of these two guys.

Who quit first? 0:04:05.800 --> 0:04:06.280 Who quit? 0:04:08.920 --> 0:04:10.400 Who was not a boxer? 0:04:10.480 --> 0:04:11.640 Who is the boxer. 0:04:11.680 --> 0:04:14.720 I didn't even see it was like a small like featherweight. 0:04:14.880 --> 0:04:18.000 Oh really, yeah, I'll pull it up and he he 0:04:18.000 --> 0:04:18.760 he stopped him. 0:04:19.160 --> 0:04:20.600 Yeah. 0:04:20.640 --> 0:04:23.720 That's the thing that sometimes we and this is this 0:04:23.760 --> 0:04:25.120 is an athlete's flaw. 0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:28.280 This is an athlete that alpha male. We think that 0:04:28.360 --> 0:04:30.240 we can jump in any arena. 0:04:30.279 --> 0:04:35.640 And the best and be the best, and we sometimes succeed. 0:04:36.480 --> 0:04:39.559 Sometimes we gotta just stand there myself, like we gotta 0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:44.080 just just relax a little bit and and uh and 0:04:44.120 --> 0:04:47.880 not go so so overboard. But this this boxer was 0:04:47.920 --> 0:04:51.440 a was small like no offense, but he was like 0:04:51.600 --> 0:04:52.240 your size. 0:04:52.720 --> 0:04:56.239 I don't no offense taken. Oh wow he is little. Yeah, 0:04:56.279 --> 0:04:57.120 he's littler than me. 0:04:58.120 --> 0:05:01.440 Oh and they know what like boxers know where to 0:05:01.480 --> 0:05:04.800 punch right, and when you watch the video clip if 0:05:04.839 --> 0:05:07.000 you watch it now, yeah, if you watch the video clip, 0:05:07.040 --> 0:05:07.640 you just and. 0:05:08.160 --> 0:05:10.760 Yeah, their conditioned, like they know right. 0:05:10.640 --> 0:05:14.320 And yes, like they know where to punch you at 0:05:14.560 --> 0:05:15.160 to drop you. 0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:17.240 Like you see MICA's punch is off to the side 0:05:17.320 --> 0:05:19.600 and he's like, okay, I'll take that punch. They know 0:05:19.680 --> 0:05:22.240 exactly where to punch you at to drop you. So 0:05:22.760 --> 0:05:24.360 but I don't know if I want my star player 0:05:24.400 --> 0:05:27.400 in the boxing boxer by. 0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:28.160 The way with A. J. 0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:32.360 Graham, Okay, yeah, I just don't know if I want 0:05:32.440 --> 0:05:33.600 him in the gym doing that. 0:05:33.680 --> 0:05:36.640 Yeah, right, the internal injuries, I don't want that. 0:05:37.000 --> 0:05:37.800 I don't want that. 0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:40.800 I don't mind the training, I don't mind the camaraderie. 0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:43.280 I don't mind having fun. I don't know if I 0:05:43.320 --> 0:05:44.320 want punch for punch. 0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:46.400 You know, so you don't think, but you don't think. 0:05:46.440 --> 0:05:49.200 There's especially in the case and I know he's bandwagging 0:05:49.240 --> 0:05:51.880 on Micaehs sometimes, but just in his case where one 0:05:51.960 --> 0:05:54.440 he's supposed to be a leader of this team, he's 0:05:54.440 --> 0:05:57.240 not here, and two you have a new defensive coordinator 0:05:57.279 --> 0:05:58.800 and you're not in meetings. 0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:00.520 Is that still no. 0:06:03.760 --> 0:06:09.720 No no no no no no no no. I voluntary 0:06:09.800 --> 0:06:12.920 means just that and Micah. 0:06:13.400 --> 0:06:16.320 If for anything about Micah, he's gonna he's not gonna 0:06:16.360 --> 0:06:16.760 come in. 0:06:16.680 --> 0:06:19.119 Out of shape. He's not gonna come in out of shape. 0:06:19.120 --> 0:06:21.719 He's not gonna come in and be dragging, you know, 0:06:21.839 --> 0:06:26.080 dragging A He's gonna he's gonna be in shape. But 0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:29.880 it voluntary, It's exactly what it sounds like. And of 0:06:29.920 --> 0:06:33.719 course would you love one hundred attendance, Yes, but you're 0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:35.360 never like you're not gonna get it. 0:06:35.760 --> 0:06:37.400 You're just not gonna get it all the time. 0:06:37.720 --> 0:06:40.920 And I don't think this phase right now is the 0:06:40.960 --> 0:06:44.960 most important phase. I think the meanings are cool, and 0:06:45.279 --> 0:06:46.480 we live in a day and time now. 0:06:46.520 --> 0:06:48.240 I mean, just a. 0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:52.960 Few short years ago we did everything virtually. We did 0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:57.800 everything virtually. So maybe he's not here in person. I'm 0:06:57.839 --> 0:07:00.280 sure there's some sort of stream set up can sit 0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:01.279 in and watch the meetings. 0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:03.680 I'm sure that he can. 0:07:03.760 --> 0:07:06.800 He can face time or zoom or whatever with Mike 0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:10.400 Zimmer and other guy. So I'll cut both of those 0:07:10.440 --> 0:07:13.240 guys some slacking and cut them some bail and say 0:07:13.440 --> 0:07:16.160 this isn't the part of the progress where I need 0:07:16.240 --> 0:07:16.640 you here. 0:07:17.320 --> 0:07:17.920 You know what I'm saying. 0:07:17.920 --> 0:07:22.840 Because the conditioning part, it's great, the team camaraderie part 0:07:23.080 --> 0:07:25.840 is great, and I'm for all of that, But these 0:07:25.880 --> 0:07:29.760 are two guys who we've never had to worry about 0:07:30.640 --> 0:07:33.440 when it came to the part of being in shape, 0:07:33.480 --> 0:07:39.679 being conditioned, being in that space health wise. Now, Michael 0:07:39.720 --> 0:07:43.480 Parsons problem is that he's wore down, and that's not 0:07:43.600 --> 0:07:47.360 due to condition, that's just due to a smaller guy 0:07:47.680 --> 0:07:49.840 playing in a playing a position that. 0:07:49.880 --> 0:07:51.760 You're gonna say, a smaller guy punching him in the gut. 0:07:51.880 --> 0:07:55.680 Oh no, it's a smaller guy playing a position that 0:07:55.840 --> 0:07:58.200 just wears down. It wears you down, you know what 0:07:58.240 --> 0:08:03.360 I mean. But these never have a problem conditioning. And again, offensively, 0:08:03.880 --> 0:08:06.520 CD's straight, he's been in the same offense, he knows 0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:10.880 the plays. He's gonna be ready to go. Defensively, yes, 0:08:11.080 --> 0:08:13.000 Mike Zimmer is here. They may have a new defensive 0:08:13.040 --> 0:08:17.200 scheme and all that kind of stuff, but I can 0:08:17.240 --> 0:08:21.440 sit on the meetings. I can zoom in. I can 0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:21.880 zoom in. 0:08:22.000 --> 0:08:25.720 So the coaches aren't like, man, these guys aren't showing up. 0:08:26.160 --> 0:08:27.240 I mean a little perturbed. 0:08:28.600 --> 0:08:30.960 You have some old school and Zim might be an 0:08:30.960 --> 0:08:34.040 old school spirited dude, right, he may have that spirit 0:08:34.080 --> 0:08:36.240 of the old school of I would love to have 0:08:36.360 --> 0:08:38.760 these guys in the building, hands on and be able 0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:40.319 to kind of just see him face to face. 0:08:41.040 --> 0:08:42.840 But that's not today's football. 0:08:43.640 --> 0:08:46.320 And if you're living in the nineteen nineties in the 0:08:46.320 --> 0:08:49.360 early two thousands, then you're gonna have a problem because 0:08:49.400 --> 0:08:51.960 that's just not today's brand of football. Today's brand of 0:08:51.960 --> 0:08:56.080 football is more tech savvy. You got the GPS trackers, 0:08:56.160 --> 0:08:59.240 you got the iPads, you got all those type of things. 0:08:59.280 --> 0:09:02.720 Now that when Zim was in his prime, they didn't 0:09:02.760 --> 0:09:05.640 do it was you came into the building. You you 0:09:05.720 --> 0:09:10.479 carried around the portfolio size playbook. 0:09:10.800 --> 0:09:11.040 You know. 0:09:11.160 --> 0:09:14.720 Now everything is you can literally I can literally in 0:09:14.800 --> 0:09:18.160 the middle of my workout, stop, hit a button and 0:09:18.200 --> 0:09:21.000 be plugged into what they're doing here, seeing all the 0:09:21.120 --> 0:09:22.520 virtual things that they're doing here. 0:09:22.800 --> 0:09:26.120 Get the information here, hit end, get back to my workout. 0:09:26.200 --> 0:09:28.800 You don't know how create you brought that up. How 0:09:29.559 --> 0:09:34.920 fast technology has advanced. I remember having a conversation with 0:09:35.040 --> 0:09:38.120 Dak when I think it was it was either Ota, 0:09:38.480 --> 0:09:41.800 I think it was OTA's when he first got here 0:09:41.840 --> 0:09:44.200 because he's from Louisiana, you know, fourth round draft pick. 0:09:44.760 --> 0:09:46.760 Nobody was talking to him in the locker room because 0:09:46.760 --> 0:09:49.160 he was going to be another Stephen McGee that got 0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:51.360 drafted and did whatever and was gone right. 0:09:51.800 --> 0:09:54.040 And I walked over my boy, Stephen McGee. I love 0:09:54.080 --> 0:09:57.000 Steve check down check down McGee, that's what we called him. 0:09:57.520 --> 0:09:58.920 But I walked over to him and I was just, 0:09:58.960 --> 0:10:01.400 you know, open lit room, and nobody was over there, 0:10:01.440 --> 0:10:03.440 and I was over and now you have to schedule 0:10:03.480 --> 0:10:05.120 time to once a year to be. 0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:06.120 Able to talk to him. 0:10:06.280 --> 0:10:08.920 When I was just you know, shooting shooting breeze with 0:10:08.960 --> 0:10:11.200 him being from North Louisiana, and I was like, what's 0:10:11.240 --> 0:10:15.400 the biggest you know, what's the biggest difference between He goes, dude, 0:10:15.480 --> 0:10:16.160 the playbook. 0:10:16.679 --> 0:10:18.880 He was like, the playbook is like this is. 0:10:18.920 --> 0:10:20.040 Going to say indoor plumbing. 0:10:20.880 --> 0:10:26.520 Maybe no, out house. It was a good one. Actually, 0:10:26.960 --> 0:10:29.560 the trailer parks are much nicer all double wise. 0:10:30.280 --> 0:10:31.920 But he was like the playbook and he was like, 0:10:32.000 --> 0:10:36.160 it's like this thick and just thinking that, just thinking 0:10:36.200 --> 0:10:41.000 that there were actually playbooks when Dak was drafted, because 0:10:41.080 --> 0:10:43.679 everything's been virtual for so long and they've they've had 0:10:43.760 --> 0:10:46.559 pads for years. He's been in the league that long. 0:10:46.760 --> 0:10:49.560 Like we think that, like you think about it, it's like, 0:10:49.960 --> 0:10:54.439 oh dad, yeah, but he's been here a long time. Man, playbooks. 0:10:54.760 --> 0:10:58.440 That's crazy. There there are guys on this team that 0:10:59.080 --> 0:11:01.120 had iPads in high school. 0:11:02.040 --> 0:11:05.400 Probably yeah, most of them, yeah, almost all of them. 0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:08.560 Yeah, the only one that probably like you're you're really 0:11:08.600 --> 0:11:13.120 like your zach zachs and the tanks. Yeah, maybe, well 0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:15.120 Hank's not hear anymore, but like, yeah, those. 0:11:14.920 --> 0:11:18.280 Two guys tiring, but he's yeah, yeah that so Dak, 0:11:18.840 --> 0:11:21.120 Tank and Zach all those guys. Those are probably the 0:11:21.160 --> 0:11:23.640 only guys that actually have physical playbooks. 0:11:23.640 --> 0:11:24.680 Oh yeah, is that. 0:11:24.800 --> 0:11:27.080 Crazy how fast things have changed? 0:11:27.400 --> 0:11:29.400 So talking about can I ask one more? 0:11:29.480 --> 0:11:31.880 Yeah, questions, you're out of questions. 0:11:33.320 --> 0:11:38.240 It's well, it's related just to the workouts we're talking about. 0:11:38.240 --> 0:11:41.040 So these players that and I'm just curious, do they 0:11:41.400 --> 0:11:42.960 because you know, if they get injured when they're in 0:11:43.000 --> 0:11:45.679 Austin working out, that's they're go on the non football 0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:48.760 list and they don't get paid and whatever. Do they 0:11:49.480 --> 0:11:51.440 take out insurance on that type of thing? Are these 0:11:51.440 --> 0:11:53.120 guys making so much money they don't really care? 0:11:54.120 --> 0:11:56.880 Well this answer, I mean, most if you're that guy, 0:11:57.320 --> 0:12:00.280 most guys have insurance for themselves, right, because you have 0:12:00.320 --> 0:12:04.560 to protect But even that part of it, like it's 0:12:04.600 --> 0:12:06.800 difficult to get an insurance claim, like you got to 0:12:06.800 --> 0:12:07.600 be damn near dead. 0:12:08.440 --> 0:12:10.559 Yeah, like you have to have like a leg. 0:12:10.520 --> 0:12:13.920 That's like literally hanging off to get one of those 0:12:13.960 --> 0:12:17.120 insurance claims to kind of really pay itself for. But 0:12:17.160 --> 0:12:21.120 most of those guys, you know, and then, but in 0:12:21.160 --> 0:12:26.000 every contract, in every contract there is like there's for 0:12:26.120 --> 0:12:30.520 every contract we see, there's this hidden contract and I 0:12:30.600 --> 0:12:33.440 sense they hidden, but just non disclosed contract that nobody 0:12:33.480 --> 0:12:34.240 really talks about. 0:12:34.480 --> 0:12:35.720 There is an injury contract. 0:12:36.200 --> 0:12:38.640 So when guys get lost for the season and stuff 0:12:38.679 --> 0:12:41.680 like that, there is a portion of that. Now, teams 0:12:41.960 --> 0:12:45.280 have insurance policies so that when a guy get lost 0:12:45.280 --> 0:12:47.880 for the year, they kind of recoup some of that 0:12:47.960 --> 0:12:50.360 money that they have to pay. But the player itself, 0:12:50.840 --> 0:12:54.640 they don't get that. Whatever that base salary that's cut 0:12:54.640 --> 0:12:58.360 in half because of injury. But you know, most of 0:12:58.400 --> 0:13:00.800 the guys aren't thinking about that, you know, you know, 0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:04.559 because for the most part, you don't really hear about it. 0:13:04.640 --> 0:13:07.920 Doesn't It doesn't happen often or every once in the blue. 0:13:08.040 --> 0:13:11.480 And another reason why I'm okay with guys going other 0:13:11.520 --> 0:13:17.920 places to train and this is no shot at Harold Nash. 0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:19.199 I've known Harold Nash. 0:13:19.040 --> 0:13:21.200 Since when I was in New England back in two 0:13:21.240 --> 0:13:26.079 thousand and twelve ish Harold Nash was there. He was 0:13:26.120 --> 0:13:28.880 an assistant serve the condition to coach there and so 0:13:28.920 --> 0:13:29.880 I've known Harold Nash. 0:13:29.960 --> 0:13:30.640 Head guy here. 0:13:30.840 --> 0:13:33.440 Yes, he's the hair guy here now. But I knew 0:13:33.440 --> 0:13:36.080 Harold Nash back in New England, so I've known. I've 0:13:36.120 --> 0:13:41.199 known Harold Nash for a long time talking about technology 0:13:41.240 --> 0:13:45.400 and how we move things forward. A lot of these guys, 0:13:45.440 --> 0:13:48.840 if you go to you know, D one or APEX 0:13:49.000 --> 0:13:55.800 or whatever Sanders fit. These programs are specifically built for 0:13:56.480 --> 0:14:00.040 Kurt Daniels, Shannon Gross. 0:14:00.080 --> 0:14:00.559 See Holly. 0:14:01.080 --> 0:14:07.120 Whereas the team's workouts, it's more of a mass production 0:14:07.920 --> 0:14:09.000 offensive lineman. 0:14:09.880 --> 0:14:15.120 Here's what we're doing. Running backs, here's what we're doing, Receivers, 0:14:15.440 --> 0:14:18.240 here's what we're doing, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. 0:14:19.080 --> 0:14:22.880 Whereas when I go to I don't want to keep 0:14:22.880 --> 0:14:24.920 giving people free plub. But when I go to this 0:14:25.400 --> 0:14:31.400 said specific trainer, I'm getting the Micah Parson's plan. 0:14:31.360 --> 0:14:32.960 I need to work on my explosion I need. 0:14:33.840 --> 0:14:37.200 When I go to said trainer or facility, I'm getting 0:14:37.200 --> 0:14:38.720 the CD LAMB. 0:14:40.040 --> 0:14:41.600 Exclusive plan. 0:14:42.120 --> 0:14:45.120 The things that I feel that we set down and 0:14:45.160 --> 0:14:47.120 maybe watch some film that you know what, Hey, I 0:14:47.160 --> 0:14:49.760 need to get better here and now, those things are 0:14:49.800 --> 0:14:53.480 specifically targeted to get that or get this, or to 0:14:53.560 --> 0:14:55.600 build this or to lose that, you know what I mean, 0:14:56.040 --> 0:15:00.560 whereas the team because Harold's not making seven. The different 0:15:00.680 --> 0:15:06.480 individualized plans. Now every player may have, Hey you lose. 0:15:06.280 --> 0:15:07.680 A couple of pounds, Hey you need to be in 0:15:07.680 --> 0:15:08.400 a couple of pounds. 0:15:08.400 --> 0:15:10.960 Hey you know you got a shoulder, so we can't 0:15:11.040 --> 0:15:14.520 you know, it's modified. But it's not like they're doing 0:15:15.640 --> 0:15:17.239 a Dak presscott because. 0:15:17.000 --> 0:15:18.000 You just don't have the bodies. 0:15:18.480 --> 0:15:21.040 I don't have the bodies to be saying, Okay, you're 0:15:21.240 --> 0:15:24.360 you're specifically with Dak, you're specifically with Trey Lance, you're 0:15:24.400 --> 0:15:28.720 specifically with Cooper Rush. No, it's like, hey, quarterbacks, here's 0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:32.440 what we're doing. Now, we'll modify it according to what 0:15:32.520 --> 0:15:34.600 you may This nail meant if there's things that you 0:15:34.720 --> 0:15:36.840 kind of don't want to, you know, build up or 0:15:36.840 --> 0:15:41.320 you don't want to lose. But the specifics of it 0:15:41.680 --> 0:15:43.320 different when you get a chance to go to these 0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:47.720 other training facilities and so. But that's a part of 0:15:48.400 --> 0:15:51.800 where we're at now in the national football in the sports, 0:15:52.960 --> 0:15:56.680 and that's that's not even that's that's young kids.

We 0:22:28.320 --> 0:22:31.600 all know salaries don't go down in the NFL every year, 0:22:31.600 --> 0:22:35.000 they go up at every position. So by not signing 0:22:35.040 --> 0:22:39.080 these guys a year or two ahead of their expiration date, 0:22:39.280 --> 0:22:43.120 the price is going up and you're. 0:22:42.320 --> 0:22:44.040 Not getting your bang for your buck. 0:22:44.680 --> 0:22:48.240 I guess the alternate to that could be you want 0:22:48.240 --> 0:22:50.360 to see and make sure this is the right decision 0:22:50.400 --> 0:22:53.119 before you sign guys to a long term deal. What 0:22:53.240 --> 0:22:56.080 is y'all's opinion on how this has all played out? 0:22:56.080 --> 0:22:59.399 Because you got CDs up for contract, right, Dack's up 0:22:59.400 --> 0:23:00.000 for contract. 0:23:00.160 --> 0:23:01.280 Mike is what next year? 0:23:02.160 --> 0:23:02.360 Yeah? 0:23:02.640 --> 0:23:03.720 Yeah, CD. 0:23:04.160 --> 0:23:08.000 I mean they could see he's going into his fifth season, 0:23:08.080 --> 0:23:10.920 so they could he's they picked up his fifth year options, 0:23:10.920 --> 0:23:13.680 so they could make him play on that. They could 0:23:13.720 --> 0:23:15.720 make him you know, they could put the franchise tag 0:23:15.760 --> 0:23:17.400 out on him after that. I mean, they could keep 0:23:17.440 --> 0:23:20.120 him around. But then you're pissing off the player and. 0:23:20.080 --> 0:23:21.719 For the next three years because you can franch out 0:23:21.760 --> 0:23:22.119 him twice. 0:23:22.200 --> 0:23:22.480 Yeah. 0:23:22.560 --> 0:23:24.400 So, but and you want to work with You want 0:23:24.400 --> 0:23:26.560 to get your own salary cap under controls. You want 0:23:26.600 --> 0:23:30.160 to spread that out and everything. So where the Eagles 0:23:30.160 --> 0:23:34.480 have been seeing you know, Davante's Davanta Devanta Smith, he 0:23:34.560 --> 0:23:36.560 was in his third coming off his third year, So 0:23:36.600 --> 0:23:38.800 they're they're getting a jump ahead of this earlyer and 0:23:38.840 --> 0:23:40.880 they've done that with a few players, whereas the Cowboys, 0:23:40.920 --> 0:23:42.360 I mean, you saw what they went through with Dak 0:23:42.400 --> 0:23:44.520 a few years ago. You know, they could have had 0:23:44.560 --> 0:23:46.560 him for twenty five million a year, and they pushed it, 0:23:46.600 --> 0:23:48.639 pushed it, pushed it, and they went up in you know, 0:23:48.760 --> 0:23:50.280 thirty five million, right or whatever. 0:23:50.359 --> 0:23:52.480 So it's kind of a different Was that the. 0:23:52.440 --> 0:23:54.000 First time they ever did the I think it was 0:23:54.000 --> 0:23:56.240 like the first one they ever had a quarterback franchise 0:23:56.520 --> 0:24:00.040 frenhiuse taging quarterback on a quarterback in Cowboys. 0:23:59.560 --> 0:24:01.960 History, Yeah, I think so. 0:24:01.680 --> 0:24:04.160 And from a fans point of view, if you look 0:24:04.200 --> 0:24:09.240 at it, you're like, Okay, are you re signing these guys? 0:24:09.359 --> 0:24:11.639 Are you letting their contracts run out and you're just 0:24:11.680 --> 0:24:15.040 cleaning house and starting over? Like what like why are 0:24:15.040 --> 0:24:19.000 you waiting? Like I guess that's the anxiety of a 0:24:19.000 --> 0:24:23.280 Cowboys fan is like You've got one of the best 0:24:23.720 --> 0:24:26.200 top five guy in the league on defense, right, probably 0:24:26.200 --> 0:24:30.320 a top five guy at wide receiver and then a 0:24:30.359 --> 0:24:31.760 top ten guy at quarterback. 0:24:31.880 --> 0:24:34.000 I would say, you got a top three guy on defense, 0:24:34.040 --> 0:24:36.560 a top three guy on offense, and a top ten 0:24:37.080 --> 0:24:38.520 guy at quarterback. 0:24:38.200 --> 0:24:42.520 And they're all up for contracts, right, and can you 0:24:42.600 --> 0:24:44.439 afford to resign all three of them? 0:24:44.520 --> 0:24:48.159 So, like what I guess the anxiety is, what the 0:24:48.200 --> 0:24:48.960 hell's going on? 0:24:49.000 --> 0:24:50.919 Like what are they thinking? Because no one knows what 0:24:50.920 --> 0:24:52.960 they're thinking. They said they were going all in, and 0:24:53.119 --> 0:24:55.439 of course that's been the headline the whole off season. 0:24:55.440 --> 0:24:58.239 That came up again this week right with Steven, But like, 0:24:58.760 --> 0:25:02.239 as a fan, what is happening? What are they thinking? Like, 0:25:02.280 --> 0:25:05.840 what do you guys think is going on upstairs? And 0:25:05.880 --> 0:25:07.760 what are they doing with these contracts? Are they trying 0:25:07.800 --> 0:25:09.639 to figure it out? Have they figured it out and 0:25:09.680 --> 0:25:11.439 they're just playing chess with people? 0:25:11.600 --> 0:25:13.600 Or or I mean what? 0:25:13.960 --> 0:25:15.840 So far it sounds like it's all amicable. 0:25:15.960 --> 0:25:18.679 I mean, they're they've had some discussions, but they're not 0:25:18.680 --> 0:25:21.040 getting into the weeds of it all yet. But you 0:25:21.080 --> 0:25:23.840 also got to remember, man, if some of this is 0:25:23.840 --> 0:25:25.760 on the players too, it's not just the Cowboys can't 0:25:25.760 --> 0:25:27.600 get it done. I mean if I'm cd Lamb and 0:25:27.640 --> 0:25:30.280 his agent and I've got Justin Jefferson sitting over there. 0:25:30.359 --> 0:25:33.560 Weren't a big contract too. I mean, it might be 0:25:33.800 --> 0:25:35.720 worth it to hold on to your cards for a 0:25:35.720 --> 0:25:37.800 little while before you jump into a big contract. I 0:25:37.800 --> 0:25:41.879 don't know, but it's it's frustrating for fans, that's for sure. 0:25:41.960 --> 0:25:48.120 Yeah, player side, what's going on the players always there's 0:25:48.119 --> 0:25:50.080 two things that player always wants to kind of really 0:25:50.560 --> 0:25:51.159 pinpoint on. 0:25:51.320 --> 0:25:53.960 It's I want to get the guaranteed money, right, I 0:25:54.000 --> 0:25:56.840 want to get the I want to get the generational money, 0:25:57.560 --> 0:25:58.399 but I also want. 0:25:58.240 --> 0:26:01.000 To get back to the table again quick as possible. 0:26:01.520 --> 0:26:06.440 Right, So the years so when you when you get 0:26:06.440 --> 0:26:08.560 to that second contract that is your that is your 0:26:08.640 --> 0:26:10.359 generational wealth contract that. 0:26:10.720 --> 0:26:11.560 Make money as a player. 0:26:11.640 --> 0:26:15.960 That's that's where you can say I'm good, my kids 0:26:16.000 --> 0:26:18.000 are good, My kids kids are good. When you get 0:26:18.000 --> 0:26:19.560 to that big if you're a star player, you get 0:26:19.600 --> 0:26:22.280 to that big second contract. But these guys are also 0:26:22.280 --> 0:26:25.200 saying to themselves, yeah, I don't want this thing strung 0:26:25.280 --> 0:26:27.760 out five or six years where I have to play. 0:26:28.160 --> 0:26:31.880 Because their agents and they know that the money only 0:26:31.920 --> 0:26:36.600 grows the football, It only grows so in two or 0:26:36.600 --> 0:26:42.000 three years my contract is gonna be If I continue 0:26:42.040 --> 0:26:44.600 at the pace that I'm playing at, I'm gonna outplay 0:26:44.640 --> 0:26:47.639 these numbers, right, And so I don't want to be 0:26:47.760 --> 0:26:51.639 stuck in a contract five years from now. 0:26:52.200 --> 0:26:54.240 And the market has jumped significantly. 0:26:54.320 --> 0:26:57.160 Now the fifteenth highest player correct whatever. 0:26:57.000 --> 0:26:58.879 At twenty nine to thirty million dollars. 0:26:58.920 --> 0:27:01.320 Yeah, So these of saying, yes, I want to get 0:27:01.320 --> 0:27:03.080 the generational money I want. I want to get that 0:27:03.119 --> 0:27:06.480 guaranteed money in because this game is not for long, 0:27:06.920 --> 0:27:08.879 even if you have a ten year career, it's still 0:27:08.920 --> 0:27:11.280 not for long. But I also want to get back 0:27:11.320 --> 0:27:13.440 to the table as quick as possible because I want 0:27:13.440 --> 0:27:15.760 to re up. I want to be able to say that, 0:27:15.840 --> 0:27:19.479 you know what, I got fifty million dollars in these 0:27:19.480 --> 0:27:21.000 first three years, and I'm going to get another fifty 0:27:21.040 --> 0:27:24.239 million dollars. And so those are the two lines that 0:27:24.440 --> 0:27:26.800 players and agents and front office have to be able 0:27:26.800 --> 0:27:30.600 to work through. Is are we giving the money that 0:27:30.640 --> 0:27:36.880 we're giving out? How is that? How is that bogging 0:27:36.960 --> 0:27:40.480 us down from making other moves? And can we still 0:27:40.520 --> 0:27:43.199 be flexible in that? And for the player, it's I 0:27:43.240 --> 0:27:45.280 want my bread and I want to get back to 0:27:45.320 --> 0:27:48.479 the table again. The frustrating part. I think a lot 0:27:48.560 --> 0:27:51.000 of people are saying, what from the outside, what the 0:27:51.040 --> 0:27:55.360 Cowboys are? You knew these deals were coming up, so 0:27:55.400 --> 0:28:00.960 instead of waiting until the credit card bill was past due, 0:28:01.920 --> 0:28:04.080 you could have handled some of these things in a 0:28:04.119 --> 0:28:07.200 more staggering type situation. And I think that's a lot 0:28:07.240 --> 0:28:09.399 of times when you look at what the Eagles do, 0:28:09.800 --> 0:28:13.520 it's almost as it's staggering. It's where all the big 0:28:13.600 --> 0:28:16.920 names aren't coming to to the table at one time. 0:28:17.480 --> 0:28:20.560 But I can stagger these deals out if I attacked 0:28:20.600 --> 0:28:23.840 them earlier. Though, the Cowboys have just elected to wait. 0:28:24.440 --> 0:28:27.800 They waited with Dak the first time around, they're waiting 0:28:27.840 --> 0:28:30.359 now with CD. They're probably gonna wait now with Micah. 0:28:30.400 --> 0:28:35.639 And if Micah CD had a year this year where 0:28:35.680 --> 0:28:38.240 he was I think second in the league in receiving yards, 0:28:38.240 --> 0:28:40.520 first in the league in receptions, and n he was 0:28:40.600 --> 0:28:44.560 up there with touchdowns, he had an all pro year. Well, 0:28:45.720 --> 0:28:48.320 the more I keep adding on to this stuff, the 0:28:48.320 --> 0:28:50.880 more my price goes up. When I start adding all 0:28:50.920 --> 0:28:53.880 pros to first team all pros, to the to the 0:28:53.920 --> 0:28:57.040 to the to the to the docket, you can't you 0:28:57.400 --> 0:29:00.640 you can't give me with those guys over there used 0:29:00.680 --> 0:29:04.200 to get And the same thing with Micah. If Micah, 0:29:04.480 --> 0:29:06.040 if they don't do a deal with michaelh this year 0:29:06.080 --> 0:29:08.000 and he goes to the season next year, next year 0:29:08.480 --> 0:29:12.680 and he gets the sack total or is a Defensive 0:29:12.680 --> 0:29:14.880 Player of the Year or another first team all Pro types, 0:29:15.160 --> 0:29:18.400 my price goes up. My price only goes up. I 0:29:18.440 --> 0:29:21.040 think that's the biggest thing that frustrates Cowboys fans. It's 0:29:21.080 --> 0:29:24.800 like we're facing these credit card bills that we knew 0:29:24.800 --> 0:29:27.560 were coming years in advance, and we could have we 0:29:27.600 --> 0:29:30.840 could have given ourselves a little bit more relief if 0:29:30.880 --> 0:29:33.680 we had attacked some of these deals like you knew CD. 0:29:33.800 --> 0:29:35.160 You knew CD deal was coming up. 0:29:35.240 --> 0:29:36.120 You know now. 0:29:36.600 --> 0:29:39.120 Granted, guys like Micah, they have to get to a 0:29:39.120 --> 0:29:41.280 certain threshold in the years they've been in the league 0:29:41.320 --> 0:29:42.640 before you get offered them a new deal. 0:29:43.000 --> 0:29:44.000 But not Dak. 0:29:44.520 --> 0:29:46.760 He's past that threshold. You could have got a deal 0:29:46.800 --> 0:29:48.200 done with him a year ago. 0:29:48.320 --> 0:29:52.200 And I think the frustrating part from a fans perspective 0:29:52.360 --> 0:29:57.240 is each one of those guys you've you've pigeonholed yourself 0:29:57.360 --> 0:30:00.320 the way you've drafted the way you've let play go, 0:30:00.440 --> 0:30:04.280 the way you've like, those are your guys, Like Dak's 0:30:04.320 --> 0:30:08.040 the he's the guy, CD, He's what's behind him, He's 0:30:08.080 --> 0:30:11.280 the guy Micah. You've built this defense, You've moved him 0:30:11.280 --> 0:30:14.000 from linebacker to the defensive end, and you've built the 0:30:14.040 --> 0:30:16.800 defense around him. So it's not like, oh, if he 0:30:16.880 --> 0:30:19.880 goes away, this is just a piece like that. Those 0:30:20.040 --> 0:30:24.120 you have morphed this team into, those are your Those 0:30:24.120 --> 0:30:27.560 are your guys, right, And it's like, like. 0:30:27.720 --> 0:30:28.760 You know, those your guys. 0:30:28.800 --> 0:30:31.960 Why aren't you, like you said, staggering it making sure 0:30:31.960 --> 0:30:35.400 they're here and not Maybe they're not stressed out upstairs, 0:30:35.440 --> 0:30:37.240 but it stresses the hell out of Cowboy says. 0:30:37.440 --> 0:30:37.680 You know. 0:30:37.840 --> 0:30:41.040 Are they in a position though, where they've I don't 0:30:41.040 --> 0:30:44.160 know how to explain this, like they have put themselves 0:30:44.160 --> 0:30:45.880 behind the eight ball, in a position where they can't 0:30:45.880 --> 0:30:48.360 get it because they they pushed money all these years. 0:30:48.360 --> 0:30:51.200 They push money back. I mean, you look back when 0:30:51.240 --> 0:30:54.800 Tony Rum, when Dak Prescott like was on that rookie deal, 0:30:55.040 --> 0:30:56.840 they still had dead money on Tony Rum when they 0:30:56.880 --> 0:30:58.960 had to pay and it's same now you look now 0:30:59.000 --> 0:31:01.200 it's they've got seven ten million dollars of dead money 0:31:01.200 --> 0:31:04.440 they have to play. Zeke's getting six Tyron Smith's getting six. 0:31:04.520 --> 0:31:06.840 I mean, are they in a position where we're like, 0:31:07.840 --> 0:31:10.160 they can't pay going forward because they're still paying on 0:31:10.200 --> 0:31:10.680 the past. 0:31:11.160 --> 0:31:13.200 And if so, how do they get out of it? 0:31:13.240 --> 0:31:14.400 How do they break that cycle? 0:31:15.560 --> 0:31:18.200 I'd sign these guys just. 0:31:18.640 --> 0:31:21.560 I think that's just I think that's just order of business. 0:31:21.960 --> 0:31:24.080 I think dead money dead money. 0:31:23.840 --> 0:31:24.320 Every team. 0:31:24.520 --> 0:31:27.920 I think every team is in dead money that ranks. 0:31:28.200 --> 0:31:32.240 I think I think every team is at least every 0:31:32.280 --> 0:31:37.480 team that's that's that has enough star players on there. 0:31:37.840 --> 0:31:40.120 That's just a part of that's the price of doing 0:31:40.160 --> 0:31:42.520 business is that you're going to have some debt money 0:31:42.520 --> 0:31:45.240 that you have, uh that you have to pay. 0:31:45.920 --> 0:31:49.880 And if that is, if that is the case, then. 0:31:49.760 --> 0:31:52.760 Again it behooves you even more now to kind of 0:31:52.800 --> 0:31:57.520 be able to have the flexibility in getting contracts done 0:31:57.560 --> 0:31:59.800 early enough that you can move this money around. 0:32:00.120 --> 0:32:02.640 They're twenty first and dead money, So that's not like 0:32:02.680 --> 0:32:05.280 you said, order of business. 0:32:04.600 --> 0:32:08.280 The order Yeah, it's that's just that's just the operating costs. 0:32:08.280 --> 0:32:10.760 It's just our team, so we yeah. 0:32:10.920 --> 0:32:13.920 Lead average, they're at seventeen league averages twenty five. 0:32:14.480 --> 0:32:15.880 So they're even under the threshold. 0:32:16.000 --> 0:32:18.800 And that and and those are the type of things 0:32:18.880 --> 0:32:21.080 that fans get a chance to go up and look 0:32:21.120 --> 0:32:25.480 at and know that y'are talking about you need to 0:32:25.480 --> 0:32:28.000 save money. And this is Steven Talbot asked you talking 0:32:28.000 --> 0:32:29.680 about you need to save money because you got other 0:32:29.680 --> 0:32:30.640 stuff that you have to pay for it. 0:32:30.720 --> 0:32:34.240 And the teams are going, but other teams are functioning. 0:32:35.400 --> 0:32:40.040 And thriving and putting better teams together with higher debt 0:32:40.080 --> 0:32:44.080 money that that that money cap issues than we do. 0:32:44.360 --> 0:32:49.360 Yeah, so is this Philadelia has thirty seven million dead money? 0:32:49.400 --> 0:32:51.880 So is this the year where they, like you said, Kurt, 0:32:51.960 --> 0:32:54.920 are they are they resetting this year? Are they are 0:32:54.920 --> 0:32:57.600 they like, Okay, guess what we're gonna We're gonna clear 0:32:57.640 --> 0:32:59.720 the books because they haven't Oh, by the way, big 0:32:59.760 --> 0:33:01.400 sign this week. We got to talk about that in 0:33:01.400 --> 0:33:05.200 the next the next step. They they haven't signed anybody, 0:33:05.240 --> 0:33:09.000 they haven't paid a lot of money, and they haven't 0:33:09.560 --> 0:33:12.360 gone and redone any of these big contracts. Is this 0:33:12.400 --> 0:33:14.200 the year where they're like, you know what, we're just 0:33:14.240 --> 0:33:16.520 gonna We're just gonna clean the books off. 0:33:16.520 --> 0:33:19.160 We're gonna start at zero. And I'm not saying I'm not. 0:33:19.160 --> 0:33:22.520 Gonna use the rebuild word, but you know they've let 0:33:22.600 --> 0:33:25.600 some key guys go. Is this the year where they're 0:33:25.640 --> 0:33:27.400 just like, we got to get the money right and 0:33:27.440 --> 0:33:31.280 then and then make a run starting, you know, next 0:33:31.360 --> 0:33:33.000 year with starting with. 0:33:32.960 --> 0:33:36.280 This draft, Like I just I don't know, it just. 0:33:36.240 --> 0:33:40.120 It just it's a weird time because they've never taken 0:33:40.160 --> 0:33:43.040 this approach, I guess, or we've never seen this approach. 0:33:43.080 --> 0:33:44.400 Maybe we're just talking about it more. 0:33:44.440 --> 0:33:46.800 Maybe there's more content creators out there, like you said, 0:33:46.800 --> 0:33:49.600 and everybody's got opinions, but just doesn't seem to me 0:33:49.760 --> 0:33:54.239 like they've ever let this many guys go, sign this 0:33:54.280 --> 0:33:57.320 few of guys and then had this many big glooming 0:33:57.440 --> 0:33:59.480 contracts out there where they haven't at. 0:33:59.440 --> 0:34:01.000 Least publicly speaking. 0:34:01.040 --> 0:34:03.160 Now they may be working around the clock on these 0:34:03.200 --> 0:34:04.720 deals and we just don't know about it. They might 0:34:04.720 --> 0:34:06.280 come out today and be like, hey, we signed all 0:34:06.280 --> 0:34:07.880 three of these guys. We figured it out and that's 0:34:07.920 --> 0:34:11.000 why they didn't bring anybody in. But just you know, 0:34:11.480 --> 0:34:13.840 I just don't remember a time where it's been this 0:34:14.040 --> 0:34:16.080 much up in the air as far as the money. 0:34:16.440 --> 0:34:19.440 So it makes your one I mean, because you've got 0:34:19.440 --> 0:34:23.520 a coaching staff that's in their last year of their contract. 0:34:22.840 --> 0:34:23.720 You're gonna lose everything. 0:34:23.760 --> 0:34:24.520 Yeah, we're gonnase, you. 0:34:24.520 --> 0:34:26.239 Know, I think the marks lawrence is the last year 0:34:26.320 --> 0:34:29.160 is cont I mean, you could they want if they 0:34:29.200 --> 0:34:31.919 want to rewrite the books this season they. 0:34:31.920 --> 0:34:32.719 I mean, you could do it. 0:34:32.760 --> 0:34:34.520 You can get rid of the coaching staff, you could 0:34:34.560 --> 0:34:36.160 get rid of your three key players. 0:34:36.239 --> 0:34:39.239 You can think they will, But I don't think. I 0:34:39.239 --> 0:34:42.840 don't think that thought processes is far off. When you 0:34:42.880 --> 0:34:45.799 start putting all the puzzle pieces together, it sounds like, 0:34:45.840 --> 0:34:48.880 you know what, and maybe all in mean cleaning the 0:34:48.880 --> 0:34:51.839 books this year, Like that's all in. Hey, we're going 0:34:51.880 --> 0:34:54.120 all in and cleaning these books, and that next year 0:34:54.160 --> 0:34:56.120 when we hire a new head coach and the new staff. 0:34:56.280 --> 0:34:58.680 They have said all that means different things. 0:34:58.480 --> 0:35:01.120 To different things, the different people, right, And and now 0:35:01.160 --> 0:35:03.880 they're saying, we're going in with you know, better books, 0:35:04.280 --> 0:35:08.560 more money, and new coaching, new coaching staff, and now 0:35:08.600 --> 0:35:11.359 we can throw these we can throw these financial resources 0:35:11.400 --> 0:35:13.759 at other things. I don't I don't know. I don't 0:35:13.760 --> 0:35:17.800 know that that is that is as the world turns. 0:35:17.880 --> 0:35:19.319 Dallas Cowboy addition. 0:35:19.160 --> 0:35:22.120 That's why we have seven shows that talk about this, 0:35:22.200 --> 0:35:25.400 because everyone has a different people, it'll be interesting. 0:35:25.800 --> 0:35:29.040 I think that makes the draft even that more interesting, right, Like, 0:35:29.320 --> 0:35:31.000 what do we all think? 0:35:31.040 --> 0:35:32.399 That's crazy? Right? 0:35:32.480 --> 0:35:34.080 Does any other and I don't want to mess up 0:35:34.120 --> 0:35:36.839 my money, but does any other team have as many shows? 0:35:36.520 --> 0:35:39.200 No one has. I don't think. 0:35:39.440 --> 0:35:41.520 I don't think there's another team that has that many 0:35:41.640 --> 0:35:43.879 external shows that talk about their team. 0:35:44.040 --> 0:35:46.920 We have seven in the house in house? 0:35:47.080 --> 0:35:51.680 Is it seven now, Chris, he's I'm listening. 0:35:51.880 --> 0:35:56.239 Sorry, it's eighty.

But Nate, do you know anything about Royce? 0:41:25.040 --> 0:41:28.520 Yeah, journeyman, I think he has about like sixteen seventeen 0:41:28.600 --> 0:41:32.080 hundred total yards over the last couple of years, played 0:41:32.120 --> 0:41:34.480 for a bunch of different teams in the league. 0:41:36.040 --> 0:41:39.759 It's big, yeah, decent back, six foot two thirty eight 0:41:39.840 --> 0:41:40.160 or something. 0:41:40.239 --> 0:41:42.840 Yeah, which is weird? 0:41:43.200 --> 0:41:45.920 Is that weird that they signed They've never had a 0:41:46.000 --> 0:41:46.839 big back here? 0:41:46.880 --> 0:41:47.120 Really? 0:41:47.239 --> 0:41:50.080 No, it reminds you like the guy that Loronald Jones 0:41:50.120 --> 0:41:52.239 last year. Yeah, that's a comparison of the people. 0:41:52.440 --> 0:41:56.640 Say Nick Harris wrote something about that's you know, you 0:41:56.680 --> 0:42:00.400 look at McCarthy inherited, Zeke any inherent Pollard. There's a 0:42:00.440 --> 0:42:02.360 question about what kind of back does he like, and 0:42:02.440 --> 0:42:04.640 Nick kind of said, you know, maybe he once said 0:42:05.200 --> 0:42:08.960 big bruising kind of guy, which I don't know Freeman's answer, 0:42:09.040 --> 0:42:11.160 but he kind of fits that mold. 0:42:11.320 --> 0:42:17.000 And I think if you're going to go running back 0:42:17.000 --> 0:42:21.319 has become a two back, yeah, you know, two backs 0:42:21.360 --> 0:42:25.520 by committee type thing in the league, with the exception 0:42:25.640 --> 0:42:28.120 of a few backs but a few teams, but for 0:42:28.160 --> 0:42:30.520 the most part, it's been a lot of you're going 0:42:30.600 --> 0:42:32.400 to have the bigger, bruising back and then you're going 0:42:32.480 --> 0:42:36.080 to have the speedback. And I think this kind of 0:42:36.120 --> 0:42:38.560 gives you at least at least a veteran back going 0:42:38.600 --> 0:42:40.640 in the camp that gives you that bigger body, short 0:42:40.680 --> 0:42:41.680 yard his body. 0:42:41.360 --> 0:42:42.480 But still can kind of move. 0:42:42.520 --> 0:42:46.000 And then as you go into the draft, in which 0:42:46.040 --> 0:42:48.600 everybody's kind of projecting, the Cowboys might sign a guy 0:42:48.640 --> 0:42:51.600 like Jonathan Brooks, but do we know if he's ready 0:42:51.600 --> 0:42:51.919 to go? 0:42:52.120 --> 0:42:54.280 Yeah, so are you going? 0:42:54.520 --> 0:42:55.240 What's your opinion? 0:42:55.280 --> 0:42:57.719 Are you going into the season with Rico being your 0:42:57.960 --> 0:42:59.840 number one guy or do you think they're going to 0:43:00.080 --> 0:43:03.080 have somebody and try to ready plug him? 0:43:03.080 --> 0:43:04.680 But I think I think I think there's going to 0:43:04.760 --> 0:43:07.719 be a signing, a trade or signing that gives a 0:43:07.840 --> 0:43:11.360 more prominent back in this in this a more prominent 0:43:11.400 --> 0:43:14.800 stable back in this uh, in the in the running back. 0:43:14.640 --> 0:43:18.080 I know there was something leaning towards they're gonna draft. 0:43:18.880 --> 0:43:20.600 I know there was some talk a week or two 0:43:20.640 --> 0:43:23.239 ago about Zeke coming back. How do we feel about that? 0:43:24.520 --> 0:43:26.359 I mean, no offense to Zeke, I'm good. 0:43:27.080 --> 0:43:29.760 I think Freeman being signed is probably. 0:43:29.400 --> 0:43:34.480 Probably puts that squashes all that, all right, Kurt, Yes, sir, 0:43:34.560 --> 0:43:36.279 we got a couple of minutes left. I know what 0:43:36.360 --> 0:43:38.360 we didn't get to all your all your points? What 0:43:38.400 --> 0:43:41.359 would you like to hit as our last time. 0:43:41.480 --> 0:43:42.839 Oh, I don't know. 0:43:43.120 --> 0:43:45.279 I like the last the last point that you had. 0:43:46.160 --> 0:43:47.680 It's a great it's a great point. 0:43:47.920 --> 0:43:51.200 So the Rainer our local teams, Texas Rangers are the 0:43:51.239 --> 0:43:54.560 reigning World Series champs. The Mavericks and Stars are both hot. 0:43:55.120 --> 0:44:01.200 Maverick Stars won the the West and their divisions. 0:43:59.560 --> 0:44:00.560 Are in there. 0:44:00.960 --> 0:44:05.440 They're and in both strong. So does this affect the 0:44:05.480 --> 0:44:08.040 Cowboys at all? Does it create added pressure? 0:44:08.080 --> 0:44:10.719 Do they not care? They just the eight hundred pound 0:44:10.719 --> 0:44:12.080 gorilla that if. 0:44:11.960 --> 0:44:15.879 They weren't printing money upstairs, I think they would care. 0:44:16.080 --> 0:44:20.600 But we all know it doesn't matter all this stuff. 0:44:20.360 --> 0:44:23.080 That's going on in the offseason when when they head out, 0:44:23.080 --> 0:44:24.880 when they get on that plane and go to Oxnard, 0:44:26.480 --> 0:44:29.280 it doesn't matter if if the Mavericks win it again, 0:44:29.400 --> 0:44:32.160 if the Stars win it again, like you could have 0:44:32.280 --> 0:44:35.160 three world champions in this city. When they get on 0:44:35.200 --> 0:44:38.120 that plane to Oxnard, it all shuts down and it's 0:44:38.239 --> 0:44:40.040 it's Cowboys twenty four to seven. 0:44:40.120 --> 0:44:42.319 Like that doesn't you don't think that irritates them at all? 0:44:42.400 --> 0:44:46.000 And the Joneses are up there thinking. 0:44:46.000 --> 0:44:48.840 Oh, I'm sure Like for people that think they don't 0:44:48.920 --> 0:44:53.320 want to win, they're crazy, like, that's why you're that's 0:44:53.360 --> 0:44:55.920 that's why you're in This is real life fantasy football. 0:44:56.000 --> 0:44:58.240 You think you pay your money to join your fantasy 0:44:58.239 --> 0:45:00.279 football league and you don't want to win, and now 0:45:00.320 --> 0:45:01.120 you may give up. 0:45:01.200 --> 0:45:05.880 Yeah, I think I think I might be trending towards crazy. 0:45:06.239 --> 0:45:10.399 You think, I mean, but I don't think you are 0:45:10.600 --> 0:45:14.600 a part of professional sports in any aspect, even us, 0:45:14.840 --> 0:45:18.360 Like I don't think you work for a professional sports 0:45:18.360 --> 0:45:19.319 team unless. 0:45:19.000 --> 0:45:22.600 You're competitive, like you don't enjoy losing like you. 0:45:22.600 --> 0:45:24.840 You may you may. 0:45:24.640 --> 0:45:27.640 Not spend wisely, and you may make poor decisions, but 0:45:27.719 --> 0:45:31.320 I think the will and want to win is is there. 0:45:31.640 --> 0:45:35.240 It's just how you put it together. 0:45:35.280 --> 0:45:37.480 I don't think for anybody that says they don't want 0:45:37.520 --> 0:45:40.319 like or they don't want to win, I think that's 0:45:41.520 --> 0:45:45.879 you know, Jesse's may be crazy, but like I think 0:45:45.880 --> 0:45:47.000 they want to win. 0:45:47.600 --> 0:45:48.720 On the field and off. 0:45:49.880 --> 0:45:52.000 You don't make you don't get to winning. 0:45:52.560 --> 0:45:55.160 You don't get to where you're at anybody that is 0:45:55.200 --> 0:45:59.839 a billionaire if you are not cutthroat, competitive and want 0:45:59.880 --> 0:46:03.040 to just squash everybody body around you, like you can 0:46:03.080 --> 0:46:05.759 do it the right way, right, but you don't get 0:46:05.800 --> 0:46:08.719 to make that much money by not being like, I'm 0:46:08.760 --> 0:46:11.040 better than you, and I'm going to show you and 0:46:11.120 --> 0:46:13.040 I'm going to show you with my bank account.

But I was 0:46:46.960 --> 0:46:50.880 just like, they have a trophy. Why are we poking them? 0:46:50.920 --> 0:46:53.640 You know, it just gets frustrating for fans. 0:46:53.680 --> 0:46:57.520 But again, whatever the team that you mentioned, I mean, 0:46:57.719 --> 0:47:00.480 the Rangers have been to the lect Cowboys have been 0:47:01.160 --> 0:47:03.040 to the Super Bowl. The cow the Rangers have been 0:47:03.080 --> 0:47:05.400 the two World Series in the last thirty years and 0:47:05.640 --> 0:47:13.200 one to one you know three three, yeah one one, Mavericks. 0:47:12.960 --> 0:47:17.000 Is one one, right, the Stars have been three times 0:47:17.000 --> 0:47:17.560 in one one. 0:47:18.040 --> 0:47:20.200 So they don't care. 0:47:21.200 --> 0:47:23.759 They don't care because still to this day when you 0:47:23.800 --> 0:47:29.719 talk about DFW sports in the last thirty years, you 0:47:29.719 --> 0:47:32.879 ain't talking Mavericks, You ain't talking Rangers.

We know that Mark buys 0:48:27.160 --> 0:48:32.600 a lot of those tickets. It's like when the Cowboys 0:48:32.640 --> 0:48:35.960 come back here to do training camp. This place is packed, 0:48:35.960 --> 0:48:38.359 this place is sold out.
