1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones Paume was Sean and RJ. Every Tuesday at

2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:06,400
Speaker 1: this time, brought to you by Ford Built for Texas,

3
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:10,119
Speaker 1: Built for you. Good morning, Jerry, Happy opening week. Well,

4
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:12,520
Speaker 1: it's good to be in this week Sean, you and RJ.

5
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:15,600
Speaker 1: And good to be with you, Jerry. How do you

6
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:19,959
Speaker 1: balance excitement versus nerves before you see your team play

7
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 1: for the first time every year? Well, I think you

8
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 1: just have both of them, and there's nothing wrong with that.

9
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 1: It is. It is exciting, but it's different because we

10
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:37,880
Speaker 1: know how impactful we would like to be with this team.

11
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:43,199
Speaker 1: We feel very good about our availability. That's our players.

12
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 1: We certainly are iffy on Martin, but other than that,

13
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:49,479
Speaker 1: we pushed it up here and got in pretty good

14
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 1: shaped as far as our players availability and accountability at

15
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: the opening night. Jerry, what can you tell us about

16
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: the updated status on Zach? Really nothing Uh the that

17
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 1: you don't know. Uh. The facts are that we've got

18
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 1: a protocol he uh will do the testing that's call

19
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,680
Speaker 1: for the protocol and a couple of negative tests over

20
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 1: the next two to three days would have him available. Uh.

21
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: It is nothing to compare it to because each individual

22
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: has its own has its own situation regarding me as

23
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 1: testing this testing as you know, we've had people you

24
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,400
Speaker 1: know this, We've had people test posty and have false posties.

25
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 1: This isn't more than likely the case. But I'm just

26
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 1: giving you the reason I can't give you a firm answer. Jerry,

27
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 1: can you give us a timeline of this, like did

28
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: it start? Was it Saturday? Was it Sunday morning? Friday?

29
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 1: Like when when did you guys first find out about this?

30
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: And you know the clock so we know when the

31
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: clocks started taking Yeah, we got we got our awareness Saturday.

32
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 1: So from a timeframe perspective, if you know, if it

33
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: gets to the point where you guys are traveling to Tampa,

34
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: will he be on a separate flight if he's not

35
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 1: yet cleared, maybe just to get him there for the

36
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:20,919
Speaker 1: game time. Not necessarily, but well, let's just see what

37
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 1: today brings. Jerry Jones join us here. You could alter

38
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 1: it if you have a negative cast today, And again

39
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 1: we are really let me give you our experience. Our

40
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 1: experience has been that we'll need more time, but that's

41
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:41,519
Speaker 1: not necessarily can't because the individual issues involved. You just

42
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 1: can't really count on your experiencing In the third day

43
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 1: this will happen. You can't count on that. But we'll

44
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 1: have a good look today and see again what tomorrow brains.

45
00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 1: It starts to get real close today. Let's see what

46
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 1: we've got today. Jerry. Do you think the COVID protocols

47
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 1: are fair to the guys, the vaccinated players. I think this.

48
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:16,519
Speaker 1: I think our protocols have served us well. We are

49
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 1: doing what we should be doing, and that is reviewing

50
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:24,399
Speaker 1: those protocols. As a league. We review them every day.

51
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 1: We review them probably their thing and constant evaluation and

52
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 1: so that you could very easily see adjustments as we

53
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: move into the season. You could see adjustments as to

54
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 1: testing frequency. And you've got guys on both sides of

55
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 1: the fence that would tell you that you're testing too much.

56
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: And so if you've got a vaccinated team, which I'll

57
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 1: be very kated with you, I do call a vaccinated team.

58
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 1: If you've got all but one or two players vaccinated,

59
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 1: I call it a vaccinated team. Jerry Jones. Every Tuesday

60
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 1: here on Sean and r J one oh five three

61
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 1: the Fan, we heard that Layell Collins had a full

62
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 1: practice yesterday. Is this a lingering thing with these stingers?

63
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 1: Jerry how are you feeling about Layel's Uh, he looked

64
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 1: like he was in great shape when we saw him

65
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,839
Speaker 1: in California, that he had dropped some weight. But how

66
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 1: are you feeling about his injury status heading into the

67
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 1: start of the year. I think we're going to heavy

68
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 1: and for the game, and you're right, that is I

69
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:42,039
Speaker 1: would call this a typical typical stinger and uh, yeah,

70
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 1: these guys do usually play with him tolerated, play with him,

71
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 1: have to tolerated a little bit less than when you

72
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 1: get a positive result. They play through it. That's pretty

73
00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: It's almost tried to say it because, as you know,

74
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 1: the extremely Jerry uh Dad didn't you know, play at

75
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 1: all this preseason, Zeke a lot of the guys on

76
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 1: offense you took some time off. How much do you

77
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 1: factor in rust to the beginning of this game, Uh,

78
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: in terms of, you know, the risk reward of playing

79
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 1: these guys during the preseason getting them hurt. I will

80
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 1: accept the uh, the short the thing that russ uh,

81
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 1: basically the rust that's there. And yeah, i'd say that,

82
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 1: uh probably if you'd made every role call and had

83
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 1: been out there for ever snap. On the other hand,

84
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 1: I think anything that you did to take a veteran

85
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 1: and have them ready to go game day as supposed

86
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: to heaven. Uh, basically risk that was worth it. In

87
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 1: other words, you're being conservative is worth it because what

88
00:05:56,400 --> 00:06:00,480
Speaker 1: counts as these ball games. Jerry, how would you describe

89
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 1: Tom Brady and his career and his greatness to someone

90
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:08,160
Speaker 1: who no clue about football? You may may think you're

91
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:09,840
Speaker 1: talking to two guys who have no clue anyway, but

92
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: how would how would you just describe what stands out

93
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 1: to you the most about tom Brady's greatness over all

94
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 1: this time? I think the mental part, just how he

95
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 1: has excelled uh and UH made to what would be

96
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 1: almost obvious adjustments in his game. The importance that knowing

97
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,839
Speaker 1: how to play the game, knowing how to play the position.

98
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:40,719
Speaker 1: To me, that's the oppressive part of it. To say

99
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 1: that he's average physically is way too much. He's much

100
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 1: better than that. But he's basically taken our game, if

101
00:06:52,800 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: you will, and shown everybody that you can play this

102
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 1: game and within the rules and really play it and

103
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 1: have that position make all the difference in the world.

104
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 1: And he does that through just playing within himself, playing

105
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 1: within the circumstances of the game again. Some of all up,

106
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 1: it's the mental thing. Did you ever think you'd be

107
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 1: seeing a guy played quarterback at this level at the

108
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 1: age of forty four, with the way that health and

109
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 1: medicine has progressed and developed. Well, you make the point

110
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 1: with your last part of your statement there, we have

111
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 1: developed the ability to be again available at those ages.

112
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 1: We saw some pretty impressive things over the years. Years ago,

113
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 1: we saw a white title play to a ripole age.

114
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 1: And so this quarterback, this position can do it. And

115
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 1: in most all the cases when you look back at

116
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 1: some of those quarterbacks that played for many, many years,

117
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: and they did it for the very same reason they

118
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: mastered the game mentally. Let's talk about your guy. How

119
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 1: has Dak looked as of latent practice and how you

120
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:16,239
Speaker 1: feeling about him before Thursday night? Well, he's he's really

121
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 1: looked crisp. He's very decisive in practice, he does not

122
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 1: look rusty. He basically we've always known that if anybody

123
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 1: could be what we've just been talking about, if anybody

124
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 1: could get better as they move along, then he should

125
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,679
Speaker 1: be a poster child. He's the best I've ever been

126
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:46,440
Speaker 1: around at taking what he is trying to ingest mentally

127
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 1: and during the week taking into the practice field, and

128
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 1: then that's what you see on Sunday and it's been there,

129
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 1: he's refined it. I looked for that this season and

130
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 1: this year. I mean this game and this year. Jerry,

131
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,599
Speaker 1: y'all know you freaing up some money with DAK restructured.

132
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: Was that for something like immediate? Is that for rollover

133
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,680
Speaker 1: a little bit of space down the road? What is that? Yeah?

134
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 1: That was both. That was really both, and it was

135
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,839
Speaker 1: looking around the corner, looking at what you're gonna need

136
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 1: as you moved through, if you will, even this season,

137
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:27,319
Speaker 1: but certainly into the next season. It was anticipated when

138
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:31,559
Speaker 1: we made the contracts, and it's a part of the

139
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 1: contract that as you's a manager roster. Yes, everything about

140
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 1: it was was expected. Jerry, do you have a feel

141
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 1: for the identity of this team or what you think

142
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,839
Speaker 1: it's going to be before carried by the offense, carried

143
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,320
Speaker 1: by the passing game? Do you want to be about balanced?

144
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: Do you do you have a feel for what you

145
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 1: think the identity of these Cowboys will be this year? Well?

146
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 1: I think of what you will see that you haven't seen,

147
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: or a bigger plays, big plays and on both sides

148
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,600
Speaker 1: of the ball. Really on all three special teams included

149
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,599
Speaker 1: big plays. We all know it's tried to say you

150
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 1: need them to have a successful drive, you need a

151
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: big play in there, you need a big play on defense,

152
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 1: my major stop those kinds of the same big plays.

153
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 1: We've got athletes out there that can make the big plays,

154
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 1: and I think they're a better prepared coach to make

155
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 1: those plays this year. Jerry Jones getting ready to kick

156

Speaker 1: J one oh five three the fan Year two of

158
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 1: coach McCarthy. What have you learned about him from year one? Jerry,

159
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 1: give us a little bit of confidence and scound report

160
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 1: on Mike McCarthy after having him around for another off season. Yeah,

161
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:55,679
Speaker 1: he's you can't shake him us. He's he's very genuine,

162
00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 1: he works, he's impressive and adverse situations, you can't shake him. Uh,

163
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 1: he's been there and done that. You don't you don't

164
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 1: see him. He's not a know at all. Not that

165
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 1: not that others might be, but uh, you just have

166
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,959
Speaker 1: somebody that the players believe in, that I believe in,

167
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:31,319
Speaker 1: uh and you Uh really he just makes you feel

168
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 1: like especially in light of how we started last year.

169
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 1: I think he handles adversity well. It's improven. He's a

170
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 1: good man to be in the Fox Show with Jerry.

171
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 1: So many people have been raving about Dan Quinn as

172
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 1: a new defensive coordinator. How much more comfortable do you

173
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 1: think your players are defensively with the scheme and the

174
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 1: way everything's running this year compared to last year. That's

175
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 1: it's dramatically improved for what you want. He is an

176
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 1: outstanding coach. He's an even a more impressive individual. He's

177
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 1: no surprise. I'd been hearing that about him there in

178
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 1: Atlanta with his head coaching as well as before he

179
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 1: got to Atlanta. He's no surprise, and I think we've

180
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:31,359
Speaker 1: got him at the perfect times. Of course, had that experience.

181
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:36,559
Speaker 1: He's a student of the game. He sees how offenses

182
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 1: are evolving, so he does have some imagination about him

183
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:45,080
Speaker 1: and working with our players. And we've got the talent

184
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 1: and in the positions and the quality of talent that

185
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:56,160
Speaker 1: he's using to implement, if you will, new approaches. I

186
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 1: think all of this is good. He's got enough experience

187
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:04,199
Speaker 1: that if you hit swinging miss that you are not

188
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 1: going to panic. Those are the things that kind of

189
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,840
Speaker 1: a man, Jerry, It's it seems like the conventional wisdom

190
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 1: on this Thursday night opener is that the the road

191
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 1: team is kind of being fed to the Lions here

192
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:17,959
Speaker 1: right like you know you're playing the defending champs. Is

193
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,599
Speaker 1: historically the home team is kind of dominated. This is

194
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 1: this a game that you guys wanted to play in

195
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 1: that you embrace the idea of playing on the opening

196
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:32,199
Speaker 1: night with the Cowboys brand? Well, is it obvious? Yes,

197
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,679
Speaker 1: it's a It's a great way for us to open

198
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 1: this season and we have so much to gain by

199
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:48,679
Speaker 1: having a good experience this Thursday night, so much to gain. Uh,

200
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:52,199
Speaker 1: these kinds of things are really what the doctor ordered

201
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 1: for where we are. Everybody wants to win, but to

202
00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 1: get to open this NFL season in these times the

203
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: COVID time to get to do it with challenges we're

204
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 1: coming in as as drawn up, we're coming in with

205
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,840
Speaker 1: some challenges and they had to do many in most

206
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,679
Speaker 1: cases are in this case with the times we're here,

207
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 1: the COVID factor. Then to sit up here and play

208
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 1: a team that really pulled it off and unconventional weight

209
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 1: last year and really approve something with how they the

210
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 1: year they got out of their quarterback Brady, and then

211
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 1: us be able to step up here right in the

212
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 1: middle of all of this and start our journey. It's

213
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 1: a great opportunity. It's what it's as the storybook writer

214
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:48,080
Speaker 1: wrote it, any final preview er tease of Hard Knocks

215
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 1: this evening with anything, you're going to be in the

216
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 1: helicopter again or taking in any more water Burger, Well,

217
00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 1: there's going to be a shot or two of me

218
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 1: watching the last practice, but watching it from my office,

219
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 1: of all places. And I remember when I walked out

220
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 1: to the practice field at Valley Ranch. The first time

221
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: I walked out, there was that air conditioned tower, air

222
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 1: conditioned tower overlooking the practice field, and I thought, boy,

223
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 1: this hadn't Spartan. What's going on here? And it was

224
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 1: for the great Tom Landry. Well, I realized if that

225
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 1: luxury was good enough for Tom, I guess it had

226
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 1: worked for future people interested in the Cowboys. So this

227
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 1: took it to another level. Getting to watch that practice

228
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 1: from sitting there in your office, which always wish for

229
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 1: when we were Valley Ranch. We have now here at

230
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 1: the Star. Jerry, did you feel like Hard Knock was

231
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 1: a distraction? In any way for you, guys, Not at all.

232
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 1: It's there. Everybody's aware of anything that's going on, really,

233
00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 1: but it's there. But I'm such a lever and that

234
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 1: that attention at the drills, at the practice level causes

235
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 1: the players to practice and push even more than if

236
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 1: it weren't there, and that's always offset any type of

237
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 1: distraction thought and the answers, No, not at all. I've

238
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 1: never thought that we were the first team to have

239
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 1: the full blown camera and the draft run. I think

240
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 1: people do better when they know a lot of eyeballs roll.

241
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 1: Interesting point. Thank you so much for the time, as always,

242
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 1: safe travels and let's start off one to know we'll
