WEBVTT - Talkin' Cowboys: What To Expect For #KCvsDAL 0:00:01.480 --> 0:00:07.080 This he is talking Cowboys Screaming live on Dallas Cowboys 0:00:07.120 --> 0:00:16.560 dot Com and the official Dallas Cowboys Boys No. Your 0:00:16.600 --> 0:00:22.720 hosts Mickey Spagnola, Brian brought us Taylor Stern and Rob Phillips. 0:00:23.239 --> 0:00:27.440 Hello everyone, and welcome into the SWBC Mortgage Studio on 0:00:27.480 --> 0:00:31.280 this Friday before the Cowboys take on the Chiefs. I'm Taylor, 0:00:31.400 --> 0:00:34.800 joined by Mickey, Rob and Brian and not a lot 0:00:34.840 --> 0:00:37.520 it's really going on today. We're just you know, looking 0:00:37.600 --> 0:00:41.040 toward the weekend and chilling. I'm just kidding because if 0:00:41.040 --> 0:00:43.519 you guys are Cowboys fans, what you are if you're 0:00:43.520 --> 0:00:47.760 tuning in? Ezeki Elliott has been announced as eligible to 0:00:47.880 --> 0:00:51.840 play this Sunday. So the hell Mary was a complete pass? 0:00:52.000 --> 0:00:57.080 Mick whoa catch? He caught it in bounds, in bounds, 0:00:57.520 --> 0:00:59.960 and I'm sure the NFL thought it was out of bounds. Yeah, 0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:03.440 no review, no, Dean Blancino, Yeah, they didn't go back 0:01:03.480 --> 0:01:09.479 to the video review on the on Judge Carney's decision today, 0:01:10.120 --> 0:01:12.280 John Carney, remember old John Carney. I do I give 0:01:12.319 --> 0:01:16.000 a kicker? This was Susan Carney. Well maybe maybe some 0:01:16.080 --> 0:01:18.640 relations we've we've seemed they need to get her on 0:01:18.680 --> 0:01:21.560 the three judge panel next week. Yeah, we do. So 0:01:21.600 --> 0:01:23.920 what happened exactly? Of course, we wake up to this 0:01:24.080 --> 0:01:27.280 news and and you know, everyone was pretty convinced that 0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:30.000 this was going to be in effact, Brian, you being 0:01:30.080 --> 0:01:32.600 one of them, you know, this was something that looked 0:01:32.680 --> 0:01:36.720 like it was not going to get overturned or accepted. So, Mickey, 0:01:36.720 --> 0:01:38.679 can you walk us through what happened? Well? I think 0:01:38.720 --> 0:01:41.080 why everybody thought it was a long shot was fact 0:01:41.080 --> 0:01:45.360 that the Second Circuit Court of Appeals in New York 0:01:46.400 --> 0:01:50.080 was supposed to be closed yes, yesterday and today, and 0:01:50.160 --> 0:01:54.360 it sounded like as soon as they can hear the 0:01:54.600 --> 0:01:58.240 request for a stay would have been next week. Now, 0:01:58.440 --> 0:02:01.360 I did read at some point somebody said, well, some 0:02:01.440 --> 0:02:04.560 judge can come in and make a ruling on it. Now. 0:02:04.760 --> 0:02:07.320 I don't know if Susan Karney, God bless her, came 0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:11.160 in or she ruled from home. You know, do have 0:02:11.639 --> 0:02:15.119 internet and WiFi and things like that, and she could 0:02:15.160 --> 0:02:17.799 just send in an email and say yeah, here's my decision. 0:02:18.480 --> 0:02:22.680 So basically, because they couldn't get a three judge panel 0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:27.919 together in time, they decided, you know what, we'll hear 0:02:27.960 --> 0:02:30.920 this as soon as possible so they called it an 0:02:30.919 --> 0:02:36.600 administrative stay and pointed out that they would rule on 0:02:36.880 --> 0:02:41.480 the appeal expeditiously. I think we learned that word last 0:02:41.480 --> 0:02:44.840 summer when the Cowboys were supposedly looking for a veteran 0:02:44.880 --> 0:02:50.240 backup quarterback. So in the meantime, this lady decided that 0:02:50.360 --> 0:02:55.560 game's missed our irreparable harm and decided, okay, well you 0:02:55.600 --> 0:02:59.639 play while we make this decision, or until we make 0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:03.840 this decision. So ruled this morning. I think it's about 0:03:03.880 --> 0:03:07.639 nine o'clock. We find out that you know, he's eligible 0:03:07.680 --> 0:03:12.160 to play this game. And this has no bearing on 0:03:12.240 --> 0:03:15.160 the merits of the case. Meaning they're not saying, hey, 0:03:15.200 --> 0:03:17.200 we think you got a pretty good case here and 0:03:17.240 --> 0:03:21.960 you're probably gonna win it. They're just saying, unlike Judge Catherine, 0:03:22.000 --> 0:03:25.919 that miss games are irreparable harm. Yes, they're allowing him 0:03:25.919 --> 0:03:29.240 to play until the appeal is hurt exactly. Absolutely. There 0:03:29.240 --> 0:03:32.080 hasn't been a resolution there, so let him continue to 0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:34.600 be on the field. And I don't know how soon 0:03:34.680 --> 0:03:37.040 it'll be. It could be tuesday, it could be two weeks, 0:03:37.040 --> 0:03:41.520 who knows. But this the brief stay is until they 0:03:41.520 --> 0:03:45.240 can hear the case. So we'll see how soon they 0:03:45.240 --> 0:03:48.600 can get three judges together for a panel to basically 0:03:48.640 --> 0:03:50.800 hear the deal. Little by little, they're just kicking this 0:03:50.840 --> 0:03:53.200 can on down the road. Judge, Susan just came into 0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:57.200 checker mail. Maybe, Hey, Susan, got something for you. You 0:03:57.240 --> 0:04:00.680 know what's going on Amazon package girl end. It's pretty 0:04:00.720 --> 0:04:04.600 high profile too. Hey hey Susan. Yeah, Hey Susan, this end. 0:04:04.960 --> 0:04:07.160 Susan there said there's this folder on your desk you 0:04:07.240 --> 0:04:11.520 might want to take a look at. And technology is 0:04:11.560 --> 0:04:15.760 good techno, right, yeah, resolutely. Yeah, I didn't say technology 0:04:15.920 --> 0:04:18.520 wasn't good. Yeah, well I said Twitter is not good. 0:04:18.560 --> 0:04:21.440 That's all all right, Well it's really good. When Ezekillett 0:04:21.480 --> 0:04:23.720 takes to his own Instagram to post a video of 0:04:23.800 --> 0:04:26.680 himself driving up to the facility this morning with a 0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:30.120 caption better late than never. Yeah, and as you've seen 0:04:30.160 --> 0:04:33.359 on Twitter, probably by now, zekiellet is back out at 0:04:33.440 --> 0:04:36.279 practice getting ready for this week. Rob. You listened to 0:04:36.320 --> 0:04:39.880 Jerry Jones this morning? How did he respond? Only the cowboys, man, 0:04:40.080 --> 0:04:41.960 Only the cowboys. That's why we get to do what 0:04:41.960 --> 0:04:45.960 we do. Why I love this job. He was giddy, 0:04:46.080 --> 0:04:48.599 He was positively giddy on the radio this morning, and 0:04:48.680 --> 0:04:52.520 He even said he's never seen anything in his time 0:04:52.600 --> 0:04:58.320 with the Cowboys so ambiguous, ambiguous circumstances where week to 0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:01.880 week you just don't know if a guy's going to 0:05:01.920 --> 0:05:03.880 be on the field, and it's totally at the mercy 0:05:04.080 --> 0:05:08.880 of various courts rulings. So it's been a roller coaster 0:05:08.960 --> 0:05:12.200 for everybody. Tay has spoken to that many times that 0:05:12.240 --> 0:05:14.080 it's got to be affecting Zeke. He said a couple 0:05:14.080 --> 0:05:16.479 of weeks ago, it's a little tiring, and I think 0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:18.360 this is probably his biggest test yet when you think 0:05:18.400 --> 0:05:20.960 about it, because he was suspended I think for all 0:05:20.960 --> 0:05:23.279 of a day a couple of weeks ago, and got 0:05:23.320 --> 0:05:25.720 back in time for a full week of practice and played. 0:05:26.120 --> 0:05:28.360 I forget which week it was at all running together now, 0:05:28.640 --> 0:05:31.400 but now you're talking about him missing really the meat 0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:35.040 of your prep week. I mean, Wednesday is your day 0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:38.680 in pads, it's your heaviest workload day. Friday is kind 0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:41.719 of a clean up type day. But still there, sound 0:05:41.760 --> 0:05:46.000 confident that he'll be caught up and ready to go. Yeah, 0:05:46.040 --> 0:05:49.359 we talked about this on their blueprint. The thing that 0:05:49.360 --> 0:05:51.440 could affect him running into football will not be a 0:05:51.480 --> 0:05:54.440 prompt for him What will be a problem for him though, 0:05:54.600 --> 0:05:56.839 is the fact that if with Kansas City and some 0:05:56.880 --> 0:06:00.520 of their blitz packages, some of the protection packages, you know, 0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:02.920 where he needs to fit. I mean, he'll he'll study up, 0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:05.839 He'll be fine in a lot of ways. But like 0:06:05.920 --> 0:06:07.760 I say, the reps part of it, I think is 0:06:07.839 --> 0:06:09.640 because if you do make a mistake, they can go 0:06:09.640 --> 0:06:11.440 back and say, okay, wait, this is what you need 0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:13.120 to look at. This is what you need to see. 0:06:13.160 --> 0:06:15.600 So I don't worry about handing the football to him. 0:06:15.800 --> 0:06:18.839 I worry about though, with because they have repped Morris, 0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:22.960 they have repped Smith, and they have repped McFadden, and 0:06:23.000 --> 0:06:24.800 you know, they do have a blitz period every day 0:06:24.800 --> 0:06:27.440 that they run where you know, eight plays, here we go. 0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:29.960 This is this is how we're going to attack their blitz. 0:06:30.520 --> 0:06:32.159 You know, if this turns into a game where all 0:06:32.200 --> 0:06:34.159 of a sudden it is a shootout and you have 0:06:34.200 --> 0:06:36.680 to throw the football a ton, you know, let's see 0:06:36.680 --> 0:06:39.400 if if if he's assignment sound there, I think that'll 0:06:39.440 --> 0:06:43.400 be important. But just just handing him the ball to run, yeah, 0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:45.320 just act like they sat him out two days because 0:06:45.320 --> 0:06:47.200 it's foot hurt. Yeah, And it's like Okay, let's go 0:06:47.279 --> 0:06:50.040 practice down. The part is he wasn't in the meetings. 0:06:50.080 --> 0:06:52.840 That's I understand that. Yeah, but they gotta practice today. 0:06:52.839 --> 0:06:55.360 They could play, they gotta walk through. They gotta walk 0:06:55.400 --> 0:06:57.680 through tomorrow. To make the walk through a little bit 0:06:57.720 --> 0:07:01.200 more and walk through there's ways to compense. Say that's 0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:04.039 missing the details. Yeah, that's the only issue I would 0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:06.640 see with him. That's the only issue if in fact 0:07:06.640 --> 0:07:09.159 that they don't get the rep as many as they want. 0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:12.640 You know, he generally takes every single rep that they 0:07:12.680 --> 0:07:15.720 have when they go with their first offense. And I'll 0:07:15.760 --> 0:07:18.440 guarantee you when they got and did their little skeleton 0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:20.760 drills where they lined up and threw the ball against 0:07:20.840 --> 0:07:23.400 air or did formations and ran a play, he was 0:07:23.480 --> 0:07:27.680 first up. He was no messing around whatsoever. And I'll 0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:31.239 tell you what. And it happens on Friday all the time. 0:07:31.680 --> 0:07:34.600 A little more bounce and everybody's step because it's basically 0:07:34.640 --> 0:07:36.840 the last work day, because I don't know if they 0:07:36.960 --> 0:07:41.200 considered the game work, but practice his work. Things were 0:07:41.240 --> 0:07:43.680 pretty spirited out there. There was a little bit more 0:07:43.720 --> 0:07:46.680 hop and everybody's stepped, a little bit more screaming, a 0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:51.080 little extra dancing by Joe Looney, who was all in, 0:07:51.280 --> 0:07:53.520 had his black undershirt on. I don't know if he 0:07:53.600 --> 0:07:55.720 was trying to do some Tonga dance in the middle 0:07:56.080 --> 0:08:01.200 or the hakka dance. And then he started again when 0:08:01.240 --> 0:08:04.800 they started doing stretch and people were hooting and hollering, 0:08:04.960 --> 0:08:08.360 so I could tell that the vibe was just a 0:08:08.400 --> 0:08:11.440 little bit a little bit different out there, and I 0:08:11.480 --> 0:08:13.680 think everybody was glad to see him, you know. I 0:08:13.680 --> 0:08:15.880 saw him walk in. I don't know if he was 0:08:15.920 --> 0:08:18.560 going into a team meeting or the offensive meeting. It 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:22.520 was about nine thirty nine thirty five. He was upstairs 0:08:22.560 --> 0:08:25.160 getting ready to walk into a meeting, so he got 0:08:25.200 --> 0:08:27.280 here pretty quick because the ruling didn't come down to 0:08:27.440 --> 0:08:30.680 bright nine o'clock. Yeah, so he didn't take much time. 0:08:30.680 --> 0:08:32.560 Hopefully he didn't go one hundred miles an hour on 0:08:32.640 --> 0:08:35.400 Sam Rayburn to get here. I was with Mickey. I'm 0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:38.320 on this because I was downstairs at the in the 0:08:38.520 --> 0:08:41.440 dining hall and was walking through and Dez came jogging 0:08:41.480 --> 0:08:42.959 by and he yelled at me. He goes, he's playing, 0:08:43.200 --> 0:08:45.400 he's playing, you know, and he was running right into 0:08:45.440 --> 0:08:48.600 the meeting. So yeah, I think everybody is pretty excited 0:08:48.640 --> 0:08:51.240 about having him back, at least for this week against 0:08:51.240 --> 0:08:55.240 a very difficult opponent. Is everybody is Darren McFadden is 0:08:55.280 --> 0:08:58.160 Alfred Morris. I mean I had a quote from him yesterday, 0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:00.600 Rob did I thought was a great quote that showed 0:09:00.800 --> 0:09:05.520 this running back group is like, Okay, we're good too. Yeah. Absolutely, 0:09:05.760 --> 0:09:11.640 I think you're Your job as a teammate overrides has 0:09:11.640 --> 0:09:13.880 to override being a competitor and wanting to play. And 0:09:13.880 --> 0:09:16.120 I think they're going to be happy for him playing, 0:09:16.160 --> 0:09:20.520 but I think it's more Yeah, Morris's comments about being 0:09:20.600 --> 0:09:23.040 kind of insulted was more directed towards the media, like 0:09:23.160 --> 0:09:25.040 you guys think we can't come in there if needed 0:09:25.360 --> 0:09:27.760 and do the job. And I think they were They're 0:09:27.800 --> 0:09:31.160 anxious for that opportunity. But you want to win football games, 0:09:31.160 --> 0:09:33.960 bottom line, and you got to have a guy like 0:09:34.080 --> 0:09:36.360 Zeke with you to ride with you in this type 0:09:36.360 --> 0:09:38.240 of situation. This is probably the best team they played 0:09:38.280 --> 0:09:41.240 all year long. Certainly it'll be the best offense I 0:09:41.280 --> 0:09:44.520 think by far. I mean the defense doesn't look good. 0:09:44.520 --> 0:09:47.080 What saved this defense is their ability to take the 0:09:47.080 --> 0:09:49.559 ball away, but they sure give up a ton of 0:09:49.640 --> 0:09:52.760 yards their offense saves them two. Yeah, their offense puts 0:09:52.760 --> 0:09:54.319 a lot of pressure on you. You You have to keep 0:09:54.400 --> 0:09:56.600 up with them. It's volleyball, right, and if you don't, 0:09:56.679 --> 0:09:58.839 you know, and if you don't keep up, then they 0:09:58.840 --> 0:10:00.800 can bury. They make you one dimensional and all of 0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:03.720 a sudden, then it becomes about you know, justin Houston 0:10:03.720 --> 0:10:06.439 and those guys, so d Ford and those guys screaming 0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:08.600 off the corner. But to Tay's point, and we'll get 0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:12.600 into inactives, if we goes back to status quo, it's 0:10:12.640 --> 0:10:15.319 big Fadden inactive. I mean, it goes from goes from 0:10:15.360 --> 0:10:18.120 having a role in this game, maybe a pretty significant role, 0:10:18.160 --> 0:10:20.440 to not playing. We'll get into inactives, but first I 0:10:20.440 --> 0:10:23.200 want to talk about Okay, so this stay now. You know, 0:10:23.280 --> 0:10:25.640 when the decision comes for ze Gillett, more people are 0:10:25.640 --> 0:10:28.240 looking now it could effect if the Cowboys make it 0:10:28.280 --> 0:10:31.280 to the playoffs. Now it doesn't. Well that's what Jerry 0:10:31.440 --> 0:10:34.920 addressed it. Right, Well, it just came out just now, Mick. 0:10:36.000 --> 0:10:39.400 There's a new article on ESPN that says the NFL 0:10:39.600 --> 0:10:43.200 is insisting that if Ezekieliott does get suspended, it will 0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:46.960 be in the playoffs as well. Yeah, but then There's 0:10:47.000 --> 0:10:50.640 another one from Amy Dash that says camp Zegilliott's camp 0:10:50.640 --> 0:10:53.760 would challenge the NFL if they try to spend during 0:10:53.800 --> 0:10:58.320 the playoffs because Goodell's original letter only said regular season games. Well, 0:10:58.360 --> 0:11:02.760 most suspense suspensions go into the playoffs. They'll they'll say, 0:11:02.920 --> 0:11:05.000 now that's not what we meant. They'll make it up 0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:08.760 as they go anyway, Jerry said, Jerry said, Jerry said, 0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:12.400 is his assumption. Assumption it would care all games except 0:11:12.400 --> 0:11:14.760 pres and the way it was worded that And my 0:11:14.800 --> 0:11:18.160 assumption is because it came out in August, they didn't 0:11:18.160 --> 0:11:20.240 want you to because I had the question to ask me. 0:11:20.559 --> 0:11:23.000 It was like, do the four preseason game counts to 0:11:23.120 --> 0:11:27.520 the six? Right? Absolutely? Not right. So I can't imagine 0:11:27.600 --> 0:11:31.160 you could sit here and have a year long suspension 0:11:31.240 --> 0:11:33.120 and then you get to the playoffs and you go, oh, 0:11:33.160 --> 0:11:37.160 I'm playing, and I've you see fans reaction on Twitter today, 0:11:37.480 --> 0:11:39.720 you know, oh, no, they're kicking this down the road. 0:11:39.800 --> 0:11:43.079 And eventually everybody says, the odds are he's gonna lose 0:11:43.120 --> 0:11:45.480 and he's gonna have to sit. So what if this 0:11:45.520 --> 0:11:49.400 team does make the playoffs, Well, I argue, if you 0:11:49.440 --> 0:11:51.880 don't win, this game Sunday. Your odds of even getting 0:11:51.880 --> 0:11:54.240 their decrease anyway. I think you've got to have him 0:11:54.280 --> 0:11:56.000 on the field as much as you can. I mean, 0:11:56.120 --> 0:11:58.320 I don't think you. I don't think you look at 0:11:58.360 --> 0:12:02.320 this and say, oh man, he's playing. That sucks. Yeah. Yeah, 0:12:02.360 --> 0:12:05.160 I mean this original decision came down on August eleventh. 0:12:05.200 --> 0:12:07.760 If you can believe that they would argue a technicality 0:12:08.000 --> 0:12:11.679 of wording, you think O that never. I can't imagine. 0:12:12.040 --> 0:12:16.280 I mean that that would be silly to me. We've 0:12:16.320 --> 0:12:18.800 seen I know, I know, I know, because it says 0:12:18.840 --> 0:12:21.800 regular season. So what if he serves five games, he's 0:12:21.840 --> 0:12:23.520 got one more to go, and you're gonna say, okay, 0:12:23.679 --> 0:12:25.440 season open, or you can do the other one, but 0:12:25.600 --> 0:12:29.320 go ahead and play. I would actastic. I would assume 0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:31.760 they will challenge anything I would. I would say that 0:12:31.800 --> 0:12:36.320 would be unfair. Yeah. Yeah. Is this making a mockery 0:12:36.480 --> 0:12:39.640 of everything? I mean, you know, so many tweets are 0:12:39.640 --> 0:12:42.280 coming out, like you know, what people need to understand 0:12:42.400 --> 0:12:45.520 is this whole thing comes down to how a particular 0:12:45.720 --> 0:12:49.200 judge interprets the law. Yeah, and if you get the 0:12:49.320 --> 0:12:53.400 right judge, you can win. You get the wrong judge Catherine, 0:12:53.480 --> 0:12:58.320 you lose because right here, Judge Crotty basically, when he 0:12:58.400 --> 0:13:02.120 was trying to rule on irreparable harm, he said, on balance, 0:13:02.200 --> 0:13:07.959 the defendant's hardship substantially outweighs the plaintiffs, which means Zeke 0:13:08.120 --> 0:13:10.959 has more to lose by not getting a stay than 0:13:11.000 --> 0:13:12.720 the NFL. This whole thing is kind of like the 0:13:12.760 --> 0:13:15.200 Cowboys record. It's almost like four to three, you know, 0:13:15.360 --> 0:13:17.959 like four judges have ruled for Zeke and three halfs right, 0:13:18.280 --> 0:13:21.280 and unfortunately the ones going, the ones that haven't, the 0:13:21.840 --> 0:13:25.560 one that needed to, you know, it was her opinion, right. 0:13:26.000 --> 0:13:29.040 The three judge panel in New York, I mean in 0:13:29.120 --> 0:13:31.360 New Orleans was two to one. So one judge thought, 0:13:31.440 --> 0:13:35.480 oh okay. The Texas judge thought, oh okay. Karate thought 0:13:35.520 --> 0:13:41.360 oh okay, and she goes absolutely not clean. Sweet, no, no, no, 0:13:41.480 --> 0:13:44.560 you haven't proven anything that this should be allowed. Can 0:13:44.600 --> 0:13:47.280 I ask smarter people than me a question? Then we 0:13:47.400 --> 0:13:50.679 better get Jason Cohen down. I'm just I'm asking you guys, though, 0:13:50.679 --> 0:13:53.240 because I think you guys will know the answer. Is 0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:55.679 this something is the NFL, I mean excume is the 0:13:55.880 --> 0:13:59.680 players Association fighting for something bigger here with the way 0:13:59.720 --> 0:14:03.280 that this is handled for disciplinary reasons. Well, I mean 0:14:03.320 --> 0:14:07.120 the NFL is fighting for something bigger, ycause says this. Yeah, 0:14:07.160 --> 0:14:11.840 they lose this, then they've basically set a precedent going forward, 0:14:11.880 --> 0:14:15.600 deciding to prosecute somebody in the league that hasn't been 0:14:15.720 --> 0:14:18.480 prosecuted or charged in the core legal system. Yeah. I've 0:14:18.480 --> 0:14:20.760 said that alone. But I mean that's why they're fighting. Yeah, 0:14:20.760 --> 0:14:23.240 that's why I'm asking this question because it seems like 0:14:23.280 --> 0:14:25.520 to me, the league, the league doesn't want to give up. 0:14:25.560 --> 0:14:29.160 The players Association realizes what's at stake. Yeah, this is 0:14:29.160 --> 0:14:33.160 really it might be Ezekiel Elliott's name, but it's about 0:14:33.280 --> 0:14:36.800 something bigger. To stop being about just about Zekel. Yeah, 0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:40.800 every Yeah, every player in the league should be behind this. Yeah, 0:14:40.920 --> 0:14:44.240 every player because that affects them. Right. See that's where 0:14:44.320 --> 0:14:47.280 that's where to me, Ezekiel Elliot's name just happens to 0:14:47.280 --> 0:14:49.400 be on top of the letter head, you know, or 0:14:49.440 --> 0:14:51.760 the top of the docket. You know. This is about 0:14:51.920 --> 0:14:55.840 something bigger. Why is this Kurt Flood? Yeah, they don't 0:14:55.880 --> 0:15:00.000 know the Kurt Flood. Yeah. There it's a free agency. Yeah, 0:15:00.000 --> 0:15:02.760 that's baseball right, it was Baseball seven is the first 0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:05.640 player to challenge the free agency system. Yeah, and when 0:15:05.640 --> 0:15:08.600 the courts ruled in favor of Kurt Flood, he ruled 0:15:08.640 --> 0:15:11.120 in favor of every player he came after him, and 0:15:11.480 --> 0:15:14.040 that there would be like that, that would be free agency. 0:15:14.040 --> 0:15:16.160 I learned something new every day to Yeah, and you 0:15:16.200 --> 0:15:18.840 see this, this might affect other things as well as 0:15:19.200 --> 0:15:24.800 including Goodell's extensions. I do I do believe that. Well, 0:15:24.800 --> 0:15:27.200 he's got six guys on his side. Yeah, yeah, the 0:15:27.320 --> 0:15:30.720 six the Cowboys would play without him. Yeah, you don't 0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:35.200 think they're sitting there going, no, we don't want him eligible? Yeah. Oh, 0:15:35.240 --> 0:15:38.680 Clark Hunt, Clark Cutting. Clark Hunt lives here in Dallas. 0:15:39.120 --> 0:15:41.640 Cancer's owner, you know, the great son of Lamar Hunt, 0:15:41.680 --> 0:15:44.400 and Clark's probably he probably picked up the paper now 0:15:44.440 --> 0:15:46.960 looking at it. An't going my gosh, my own hometown. 0:15:47.080 --> 0:15:49.200 He goes and I thought I could keep the Preston 0:15:49.280 --> 0:15:54.400 Road Trophy. There's no questions. The best this, there's no 0:15:54.520 --> 0:15:57.160 question this is. This is going to be a standard 0:15:57.200 --> 0:16:00.480 to how future cases, how much power hour does the 0:16:00.560 --> 0:16:03.880 NFL ultimately have? Right, The outcome of this will decide that. 0:16:03.960 --> 0:16:06.800 In addition to like we said yesterday, the new CBA 0:16:06.920 --> 0:16:10.440 is going to be that's gonna get ugly, get ugly. Well, 0:16:10.440 --> 0:16:12.800 and that's what's seeing that and think about what you said, 0:16:12.920 --> 0:16:15.720 because that's what they're they're they're using the Tom Brady 0:16:15.800 --> 0:16:18.520 case as the precedent that the courts ruled in favor 0:16:18.560 --> 0:16:21.440 of the league, and the league's leaning real hard on that. 0:16:21.680 --> 0:16:24.080 And if they get this one, they got a clean 0:16:24.120 --> 0:16:28.240 sweep now. But if they don't, yeah, they're they're in trouble. 0:16:28.520 --> 0:16:32.480 This is if they want to administer their you know, 0:16:32.520 --> 0:16:36.160 their CBA punishment the way they have sure, because the 0:16:36.200 --> 0:16:38.280 courts are gonna say, hey, we're gonna judge how fair 0:16:38.320 --> 0:16:42.240 you were? Right? We don't want you railroading things through. Yeah, 0:16:42.440 --> 0:16:45.240 and seeing and I hope everybody understands what we're talking 0:16:45.280 --> 0:16:47.720 about here. We're not talking about did Zeke do it 0:16:47.840 --> 0:16:50.080 or not. We're just talking about getting a fair shake 0:16:50.480 --> 0:16:53.280 in the arbitration system. And he didn't. I don't care 0:16:53.280 --> 0:16:56.880 how anybody looks at it. He didn't. And that's what's 0:16:56.880 --> 0:17:00.560 at stake right now. Was it fair or not? Can't 0:17:00.640 --> 0:17:03.240 just say yeah, I know this, I know this. We're 0:17:03.240 --> 0:17:05.880 gonna talk to this person. We're gonna talk to this person. Yeah, 0:17:06.080 --> 0:17:08.520 and I don't want this person being cross exam yea. 0:17:08.560 --> 0:17:10.280 By the way, yeah, I don't feel like that she's 0:17:10.280 --> 0:17:12.560 gonna be very favorable for us, so let's kind of 0:17:12.600 --> 0:17:16.520 avoid her.

Dan Bailey and Millie 0:20:10.480 --> 0:20:14.360 Collins were the only absentees from the media portion today. Actually, 0:20:14.720 --> 0:20:16.920 Dan Bailey was there, he just wouldn't. He was just 0:20:16.920 --> 0:20:19.960 playing catch on the sideline. Spotted him in the hallway yesterday. 0:20:20.000 --> 0:20:22.440 I hadn't seen him at him. Yeah he was. He 0:20:22.520 --> 0:20:25.840 was gingerly walking. He's not going to play for the 0:20:25.880 --> 0:20:30.160 rest of this month. Yeah, it's just enjoy your deep 0:20:30.200 --> 0:20:33.199 fried turkey.

So yeah, filling with the groin injury and Collins. 0:20:48.520 --> 0:20:51.440 Collins wasn't out there. Tyrone was moving pretty well when 0:20:51.440 --> 0:20:55.520 they were doing their little runaround. Stuffy's tank was dancing. 0:20:55.600 --> 0:20:57.719 He looked good. Cole Beasley's good and be good to go. 0:20:57.840 --> 0:21:00.600 I'm told he had a really good practice yesterday and 0:21:00.680 --> 0:21:02.520 he was back out there today, so if he had 0:21:02.560 --> 0:21:04.840 any side effects, they wouldn't have left him back out 0:21:04.840 --> 0:21:08.240 there today. So he's good to go. Wuzier was doing 0:21:08.359 --> 0:21:11.760
