They always 0:02:27.400 --> 0:02:30.480 say something about a man who voluntarily goes ball is 0:02:30.480 --> 0:02:33.600 a dangerous man, like they doesn't have to go bald 0:02:33.840 --> 0:02:40.200 when you voluntarily go bald and cut it bald. Yeah, 0:02:40.240 --> 0:02:44.200 that's a different cat right there. Okay, this is a 0:02:44.280 --> 0:02:47.360 dress rehearsal game. Yeah wait, dress rehearsal podcast. Hang on, 0:02:47.400 --> 0:02:51.120 real quick, give me my man's name three letters? Who that? There? 0:02:51.160 --> 0:03:00.639 You go? I did to show yesterday of any nine, 0:03:01.000 --> 0:03:07.680 his name is Tie, right, Okay, I can't for it 0:03:07.760 --> 0:03:10.480 took me thirty five seconds of wasted space trying to 0:03:10.520 --> 0:03:14.519 get this man name. So I've learned. So if I 0:03:15.040 --> 0:03:19.079 don't know it, so seventy nine swing tackle tie veteran guy. 0:03:19.160 --> 0:03:21.880 That's how can I cause I messed that up? Can 0:03:21.960 --> 0:03:25.359 I tell him about you calling me Tuesday night? Or when? Yeah? Yeah? Yeah? 0:03:25.960 --> 0:03:28.600 They called me? Now then they answered, I called him 0:03:28.680 --> 0:03:32.959 right back. I answered the phone and I hear it's 0:03:33.000 --> 0:03:36.920 not hello, it's not hey, not what you're doing. I'm like, yo, 0:03:37.000 --> 0:03:41.760 what's up? Nate osa osa? Am I saying it right? 0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:46.880 I said yes, yeah, and then I tried to learn 0:03:46.880 --> 0:03:49.040 her name on the fly and messed up. But anyway, 0:03:49.120 --> 0:03:51.440 this is what got This is what bothers. Is this 0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:53.560 why you're bad or while you're grumpy? This is why 0:03:53.560 --> 0:03:57.360 I went ball okay things because I didn't having to 0:03:57.400 --> 0:04:01.600 her to pull out with a limit. We were doing 0:04:01.640 --> 0:04:06.480 a dress rehearsal, which ain't nobody addressing to do. Ain't 0:04:06.480 --> 0:04:11.720 nobody importance is dressing. But me and Jesse went back 0:04:11.760 --> 0:04:16.760 and forth. I'm like, how can Gilbert try to win 0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:20.839 a backup role as a number two quarterback when he 0:04:20.920 --> 0:04:24.360 cannot get a snap? So you you say, don't worry 0:04:24.400 --> 0:04:28.599 about it. I went to Isaiah stand back and say, 0:04:28.640 --> 0:04:32.159 Isaiah quarterback. He said, no, no, no, Jesse right. You know, 0:04:32.240 --> 0:04:36.360 as he get more and more snaps, he gonna settle 0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:39.599 down and he gonna be all right. I say, but 0:04:39.680 --> 0:04:44.920 y'all gotta understand that the Bucks. What if something happened 0:04:44.960 --> 0:04:52.000 to this center, be honest, and he goes in and 0:04:52.560 --> 0:04:56.760 in this big someone killer for the Bucks line up 0:04:56.760 --> 0:05:01.839 on his head. I say, we have been with the 0:05:01.839 --> 0:05:05.560 Cowboys for a lot of years, and what I do 0:05:05.680 --> 0:05:10.320 know about the Cowboys what can go wrong? Will go wrong? 0:05:10.400 --> 0:05:14.600 What you do in place of that, I would say, 0:05:14.680 --> 0:05:19.120 looney out called out of I would have how to 0:05:19.160 --> 0:05:21.440 call the giants, say, looking at y'all, okay, we'll get 0:05:21.480 --> 0:05:23.480 y'all a seven pick because y'all still got the right 0:05:23.520 --> 0:05:27.200 to him because he retired under y'all thing, Looney, come 0:05:27.240 --> 0:05:32.040 on back in him. Man, I'm serious, because even if 0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:36.480 it's a series that the starting centers out and you 0:05:36.520 --> 0:05:41.800 put this kid in under fire against some of these 0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:46.400 top notch nose tackles. That that's a different pressure. Man. 0:05:46.720 --> 0:05:50.240 You gotta go under center, that's what that's that's man, 0:05:50.320 --> 0:05:52.560 that's what man. You have to go out the center. 0:05:52.720 --> 0:05:54.760 I wish it was that simple, man, when I played 0:05:54.760 --> 0:05:58.680 against your Ron Brown and read your wife. I mean, 0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:01.080 because I could block everybody practice, and I can do 0:06:01.120 --> 0:06:03.520 it during the preseason, But it seems like when I 0:06:03.600 --> 0:06:08.000 played these guys here, it was just I jumped offside, 0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:13.920 gave up sacks. I mean, if if that's the concern, right, 0:06:13.960 --> 0:06:16.159 if the snaps are the concern, yeah, because you have 0:06:16.360 --> 0:06:18.480 this fight and you have to go to a place 0:06:18.600 --> 0:06:22.800 of hey, we need you to go in and be serviceable. 0:06:24.040 --> 0:06:26.920 You've got to change everything that you're doing. You gotta 0:06:26.960 --> 0:06:29.280 go on the center. You got to be able to say, hey, 0:06:29.320 --> 0:06:32.919 we we you know, we can't really trust you, especially 0:06:32.920 --> 0:06:35.480 when you start throwing live bullets. When when it when 0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:37.640 it ain't the second string and third strain guys, when 0:06:37.680 --> 0:06:39.760 the Ashley team scheme up for you and that bringing 0:06:39.760 --> 0:06:44.640 them pressure. Because the moment the moment Tyler Beati goes 0:06:44.680 --> 0:06:51.240 out and you enter in the backup center, bells and 0:06:51.320 --> 0:06:55.640 whistles goes off, the defensive coordinator, and he's saying, oh, 0:06:55.680 --> 0:06:58.800 this was a guy from preseason. So what I'm I'm 0:06:58.800 --> 0:07:02.200 gonna do is I'm gonna sugar my linebackers and that 0:07:02.279 --> 0:07:05.240 in those eight gaps, I'm a lot of d right 0:07:05.320 --> 0:07:07.400 over his head, and he he's not gonna know where 0:07:07.400 --> 0:07:09.920 we're coming from. And so now he's gonna have to 0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:12.600 make a decision, especially if we're gonna shotgun. I got 0:07:12.640 --> 0:07:16.720 my two linebackers sugar than a gaps, and I got 0:07:16.800 --> 0:07:19.560 a center over top of you. You don't know if 0:07:19.560 --> 0:07:21.880 we're bringing pressure. You don't know if we're backing out 0:07:21.880 --> 0:07:24.680 of there. You don't know what we're doing. So the 0:07:24.720 --> 0:07:28.080 safest bet will have to be that now, whether it's 0:07:28.120 --> 0:07:31.200 Gilbert or whether it's dak, at any point in time, 0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:33.120 you now have to go on the center and call 0:07:33.200 --> 0:07:35.680 your offense from that place. I mean that that's the 0:07:35.720 --> 0:07:40.120 only other alternative if you can find another ship. Right, 0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:42.320 you know, I ain't saying that you and stand back 0:07:42.360 --> 0:07:45.679 of great minds think alike, but good, good, good things. 0:07:46.400 --> 0:07:49.000 Is there any thoughts that part of this is the 0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:52.040 old get the best five on the field. Maybe if 0:07:52.080 --> 0:07:57.080 they think having mc governed in there instead of be honest. Yeah, 0:07:57.120 --> 0:07:59.560 even though we haven't seen enough to know that he's 0:07:59.680 --> 0:08:04.560 um quality, he is it. You got to give him 0:08:04.560 --> 0:08:06.920 this opportunity. You got to give be honest this opportunity. 0:08:07.040 --> 0:08:11.000 And I hope you know because I know with these 0:08:11.040 --> 0:08:13.800 cuts coming up, they may be looking for another quarterback. 0:08:14.160 --> 0:08:17.760 But for some reason, I just don't feel the Cowboys 0:08:17.840 --> 0:08:20.360 feel like I think we all feel like we need 0:08:20.360 --> 0:08:22.720 to back up is not on this team. So I 0:08:22.760 --> 0:08:24.600 don't think they may feel that way. But how can 0:08:24.640 --> 0:08:29.120 you judge this kid? You know? And and uh, everything's 0:08:29.160 --> 0:08:32.640 been a adventure. I just that's not sound football. You 0:08:32.640 --> 0:08:36.120 don't want everything to be adventures. Sounds like the starting 0:08:36.120 --> 0:08:39.080 five lineman will be out there at least for a 0:08:39.120 --> 0:08:43.400 little bit tomorrow. What you call it, Nick? No, they 0:08:43.440 --> 0:08:46.160 say he practiced. Yeah, he had pads on the day 0:08:46.160 --> 0:08:48.719 he was out there. So that tyrants supposed to play 0:08:48.760 --> 0:08:50.680 a little bit in Zach a little bit. We'll see. 0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:53.920 Then you brought up in your in your notes, Tyring 0:08:54.200 --> 0:08:57.920 that Dorance had a good day against him Wednesday and 0:08:58.760 --> 0:09:01.200 Bradley and I had a good day against him yesterday. 0:09:01.320 --> 0:09:04.160 Are you you thinking he's what are you thinking that? Wow? 0:09:04.200 --> 0:09:06.760 I just they were talking about how great Bradley and 0:09:06.800 --> 0:09:09.719 I looked against Tyron Smith and how Darn's Armstrong looked 0:09:09.760 --> 0:09:11.760 against Tyron Smith, and I thought, well, the other side 0:09:11.760 --> 0:09:13.920 of that, is there anything to worry about Tyron Smith? 0:09:13.920 --> 0:09:17.800 I mean, I'm sure not. He's He's He's still Tyron. 0:09:17.840 --> 0:09:23.360 If they dropping hamble, yeah, I don't see what you 0:09:23.400 --> 0:09:25.920 think these two guys better than Gregory. Do you think 0:09:25.920 --> 0:09:30.079 either one of these guys? Okay, that's what That's what 0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:32.840 Gregory thought the first Smith. Yeah, Brad had him in 0:09:32.880 --> 0:09:36.120 the whole thing until Tyrn got his hands on him 0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:40.320 with pads on the first two days, right, I mean, man, 0:09:41.640 --> 0:09:43.960 you would have thought Brad was like thirty five boy. 0:09:44.000 --> 0:09:46.240 He was jumping on the fence. He was, oh, get 0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:50.360 that man of gold jacket, and I'm looking like, tell 0:09:50.400 --> 0:09:53.800 about Randy Gregory going up against Tyrean Smith. You knew 0:09:53.880 --> 0:09:57.560 because Tyron rint wanna walked back to the back smile 0:09:57.600 --> 0:09:59.199 that he was telling one or the other off his 0:09:59.320 --> 0:10:01.199 line like, yeah, couldn't get my hands on it. You know, 0:10:01.280 --> 0:10:05.000 you see him talking the next day, got his hands 0:10:05.000 --> 0:10:16.880 on yeah. Yeah, I try to talk to him that day. 0:10:17.040 --> 0:10:19.880 Yeah he was like nope, Yeah, I don't think there's 0:10:19.920 --> 0:10:22.760 anything wrong with tyring. I mean, I think he's still 0:10:22.800 --> 0:10:26.160 as long as he's healthy. He knows what to do. 0:10:26.240 --> 0:10:30.000 And sometimes you like it's like a little brother type thing, 0:10:30.280 --> 0:10:31.720 you know, the little nat You're like, yeah, I might 0:10:31.800 --> 0:10:33.560 have a day, but I'm gonna I'm an old dog. 0:10:33.600 --> 0:10:36.200 I ain't fooling around with you young cats all the time, 0:10:36.240 --> 0:10:38.200 like y'all ain't really worth all my energy. So that 0:10:38.280 --> 0:10:40.360 goes into a bigger question and let's take a break 0:10:40.400 --> 0:10:41.840 and when we come back and talk about it. There's 0:10:41.880 --> 0:10:45.040 a lot of guys on this team that either have 0:10:45.200 --> 0:10:48.120 gotten minimal reps or it sounds like they're gonna get 0:10:48.200 --> 0:10:50.920 minimal reps or no reps in preseason. They know what 0:10:50.960 --> 0:10:55.679 to do, but do they need to get something to 0:10:55.679 --> 0:10:59.280 make you feel The last night is a perfect example 0:10:59.320 --> 0:11:03.960 of that. The Philadelphia Eagles and the Patriots. That's a 0:11:03.960 --> 0:11:06.880 perfect example of a coach that want his guy's practice 0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:10.559 and in getting ready New England, and the coach in 0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:13.760 Philadelphia like, oh, we're okay, all right, all right, let's 0:11:13.760 --> 0:11:15.559 talk about it when we come back.

I look good on you, Nate, 0:16:18.560 --> 0:16:23.000 So that does good? Bets Hey, man, that looks really 0:16:23.000 --> 0:16:25.000 good on you. Yeah it does. Man. You know what 0:16:25.160 --> 0:16:27.560 looks a little snug? We need it? Yeah, I like 0:16:27.680 --> 0:16:39.640 my tight I like a tight hat. Bade stop. I'm 0:16:39.680 --> 0:16:43.680 not mature nothing. Hey, hey, but let me ask my man. 0:16:43.880 --> 0:16:49.000 Kurt Kurt is the quarterback, the back on quarterback on 0:16:49.040 --> 0:16:52.080 this team. I think so okay, whether we like it 0:16:52.200 --> 0:16:55.400 or not, I think there's every I mean everything they're 0:16:55.440 --> 0:17:00.040 talking about. It sounds like he's your guy, and I, 0:16:59.480 --> 0:17:04.560 like Jesse said, we're screwed. I mean, if Dak's not 0:17:04.720 --> 0:17:07.200 in the line, we're screwed. The matter who's out there, 0:17:07.320 --> 0:17:10.120 you know? So maybe get a guy that knows the system, 0:17:10.160 --> 0:17:11.680 you know. I just I don't know if there's anybody 0:17:11.680 --> 0:17:13.680 out there on the street they can do any better. 0:17:13.960 --> 0:17:16.600 I just want to know, man, That was my question 0:17:16.640 --> 0:17:18.920 the whole training camp. Jess, you here to tell you 0:17:19.680 --> 0:17:23.639 every analyst, every reporter, and out of maybe eight to 0:17:23.720 --> 0:17:29.600 ten people I ask male and female and like only once. Yeah, Yeah, 0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:32.480 I think that's a guy. So you know it's gonna 0:17:32.520 --> 0:17:35.520 be just as much the health of Dak It's gonna 0:17:35.520 --> 0:17:37.680 be the health of the offensive line. Yeah, Gilbert's got 0:17:37.680 --> 0:17:40.040 a chance. He had no chance. None of those Dalton was. 0:17:40.440 --> 0:17:43.280 You couldn't get a better back up than Dalton and 0:17:43.480 --> 0:17:45.680 he's struggled because he was running for his life at 0:17:45.680 --> 0:17:50.160 the time. So that's right. Wow. Well, speaking of reps 0:17:50.160 --> 0:17:55.040 and like, how do you guys feel about key guys 0:17:55.080 --> 0:17:58.760 at key positions either getting no reps this preseason or 0:17:59.160 --> 0:18:04.560 very male animal reps compared to other preseason, because it 0:18:04.600 --> 0:18:10.520 seems like it seems like McCarthy's mentality and his focus 0:18:10.720 --> 0:18:15.160 is get guys to the season healthy, get them, get them, 0:18:15.280 --> 0:18:17.480 get them healthy, get them rested as much as you can, 0:18:18.560 --> 0:18:22.479 and make sure they're on the field. And part of 0:18:22.480 --> 0:18:25.639 that is not getting your starters out there in preseason. 0:18:25.680 --> 0:18:27.480 It looks like, how does that? How do you guys 0:18:27.480 --> 0:18:30.159 feel about that? Is that? How important is that? I 0:18:30.200 --> 0:18:32.639 think I want to say this as a precursor to 0:18:32.760 --> 0:18:36.200 your to your question, and one of the things that 0:18:36.359 --> 0:18:39.200 I don't think we're really taking a deep look into 0:18:40.760 --> 0:18:42.680 we just I think we're autumn and I'm not. And 0:18:42.920 --> 0:18:45.040 I mean hanging with the boys, hanging with the boys, 0:18:45.119 --> 0:18:50.159 audience and everybody else, coaching staff included. This Cowboys roster 0:18:50.600 --> 0:18:55.320 and team for years have all has always been predicated 0:18:55.400 --> 0:19:01.440 heavily on offense. It's been an offensive mindset, and so 0:19:01.560 --> 0:19:05.639 I think we've just kind of gotten used to all 0:19:05.680 --> 0:19:09.120 the offense will be fine, they'll just carry us, They'll 0:19:09.160 --> 0:19:13.200 be okay. And you've seen more days off for tyring, 0:19:13.880 --> 0:19:22.560 for Zach flyl from Mari and I think this is 0:19:22.600 --> 0:19:27.040 something to look like you're I know, they played together 0:19:27.080 --> 0:19:30.719 for a long time. I get it, I understand it, yes, 0:19:30.920 --> 0:19:37.080 or something to that. But the lack of practice time 0:19:37.240 --> 0:19:40.160 and playing time that this offensive unit that I think 0:19:40.200 --> 0:19:43.760 we just automatically think is going to be clicking on 0:19:43.840 --> 0:19:46.919 all cylinders. And our focus has been so locked in 0:19:47.000 --> 0:19:49.520 on Dan Quinn and his defense. What are we gonna 0:19:49.520 --> 0:19:50.840 do on defense? What are we gonna do on defense? 0:19:50.840 --> 0:19:53.560 What are we gonna do on defense that we've neglected 0:19:54.040 --> 0:19:59.439 to think about what about this offense? What about the 0:19:59.480 --> 0:20:03.720 continual the consistency of this offense? And I know we 0:20:03.760 --> 0:20:05.160 got we gotta get him in their health. We gotta 0:20:05.160 --> 0:20:08.320 getim in their healthy, but we can't have a defense 0:20:09.480 --> 0:20:13.320 to Nate's point, that's gonna take four, five, six weeks 0:20:13.320 --> 0:20:16.960 to get ready, coupled with an offense that's gonna take 0:20:17.080 --> 0:20:20.960 three four five weeks to get ready like that is 0:20:21.000 --> 0:20:25.760 a that is a combination of a disastrous start of 0:20:25.760 --> 0:20:29.000 the year because both of your sides of the ball 0:20:29.040 --> 0:20:33.320 will be inconsistent. The defense being inconsistent just because of 0:20:33.359 --> 0:20:37.480 the youth and the newness to it. The offense being 0:20:37.520 --> 0:20:41.560 inconsistent because we just ain't got enough snaps. And and 0:20:42.359 --> 0:20:45.320 it doesn't matter how much of a veteran you are, 0:20:46.480 --> 0:20:49.879 you gotta get reps. And now that was my biggest 0:20:49.880 --> 0:20:53.000 concern about Dak Okay, don't play him in the preseason games, fine, 0:20:54.080 --> 0:20:56.760 but he'll do nothing doing team period. He'll do nothing 0:20:56.800 --> 0:20:59.600 doing seven on seven. He'll do nothing Like these are 0:20:59.720 --> 0:21:02.880 mean for reps that you gotta get just to keep 0:21:03.280 --> 0:21:06.800 your swords sharp in those moments. Same thing with Lyell, 0:21:06.960 --> 0:21:13.640 Same thing with Tyring, because come September ninth, them dudes 0:21:13.760 --> 0:21:16.760 just come in. Yeah, ain't no blow to whistle. Hey, 0:21:16.960 --> 0:21:19.119 let's talk the period over again. Let's look at a 0:21:19.119 --> 0:21:23.840 different look, hey, Jeff the quarterback. No, And I just don't. 0:21:23.880 --> 0:21:27.040 I just don't think we've put enough emphasis and talked 0:21:27.040 --> 0:21:31.479 about it enough about this offense taking so much time 0:21:31.560 --> 0:21:35.560 off during training camp, and I think it may come 0:21:35.600 --> 0:21:37.919 back to bite us in the butt early in this 0:21:37.960 --> 0:21:42.480 football season. We're assuming so much. We assumed Dak will 0:21:42.480 --> 0:21:44.960 come back healthy. We assume Tyring will come back healthy. 0:21:45.000 --> 0:21:47.399 We assume be Out just can handle center. We assume 0:21:47.560 --> 0:21:50.639 Zeke is faster. We assume a Mari's ankle won't be 0:21:50.640 --> 0:21:53.320 a problem. I mean, there's so many assumptions of this 0:21:53.400 --> 0:21:56.480 offense going in and there that you know, Zeke said 0:21:56.480 --> 0:21:58.520 the other day, Yeah, you know, it'd be nice to 0:21:58.520 --> 0:22:02.439 work in practice, but we're all played together before. But again, 0:22:02.480 --> 0:22:05.040 you're assuming so much that it is a concern. I 0:22:05.040 --> 0:22:08.000 think it's a bigger concern than than they definitely want 0:22:08.000 --> 0:22:10.800 to let on. But I don't know. I mean, you 0:22:10.840 --> 0:22:15.440 guys played the thing. The thing Kurt, I think Jesse 0:22:15.520 --> 0:22:20.920 all agreed is one thing you cannot ever do is 0:22:21.000 --> 0:22:25.160 led the most two important things not practice together. That's 0:22:25.200 --> 0:22:30.400 your defensive line, the offensive line. They allowed everybody else 0:22:30.440 --> 0:22:33.160 to get in sync. Quicker. That is why I got 0:22:33.160 --> 0:22:36.000 a problem with a snap count because you're not allowed 0:22:36.280 --> 0:22:39.520 the receiver, the quarterback to drop back in a clear 0:22:39.640 --> 0:22:42.520 view into the deliver the ball to his receivers because 0:22:42.680 --> 0:22:47.920 the line is not right. So I've always felt when 0:22:47.960 --> 0:22:50.159 I saw Lyle practicing every day when I came on 0:22:50.240 --> 0:22:52.280 the show, I like, every day, I let y'all know 0:22:52.280 --> 0:22:56.639 how Lyle was doing. Because the lines have to practice. 0:22:57.600 --> 0:23:01.280 And last night is you look at the New England Patriots. 0:23:01.640 --> 0:23:05.320 They had they started offensive line, they started defensive line. 0:23:05.680 --> 0:23:09.720 You got to go because that allows everything else to 0:23:09.760 --> 0:23:12.600 get in sync quicker. But if those two things are 0:23:12.680 --> 0:23:15.800 not right, then what Jesse said, it's gonna come to 0:23:15.880 --> 0:23:18.960 the light. Let our offensive line be out of scenk 0:23:19.400 --> 0:23:21.880 that gonna be running for us life. Amark gonna say, 0:23:21.880 --> 0:23:23.800 way to ball all that. Zeke gonna be like, why 0:23:23.840 --> 0:23:27.080 we ain't got no holes because those two things have 0:23:27.359 --> 0:23:30.719 to practice all the time, not a whole bunch. We 0:23:30.800 --> 0:23:33.560 have more days off of guys than we had practices. 0:23:33.680 --> 0:23:36.480 That I don't agree with. That offense and defensive lines 0:23:36.600 --> 0:23:39.600 has have to practice to stay in sync to give 0:23:39.680 --> 0:23:42.520 everybody else around him a chance to be successful. And 0:23:42.560 --> 0:23:44.680 it's crazy when you look at what training camp is now? 0:23:45.119 --> 0:23:47.400 Like I don't want to be the dude, the get 0:23:47.440 --> 0:23:51.760 off my lawn old dude, but Jesus Christ, you don't 0:23:51.760 --> 0:23:55.640 even practice now, Like everything is a walk through everything. 0:23:55.720 --> 0:23:57.879 Like I came up in an era where there was 0:23:57.920 --> 0:24:00.320 like two or days full path the old guy. Now 0:24:00.359 --> 0:24:02.679 you know that. But I am the old guy. But 0:24:02.880 --> 0:24:05.480 I'm like, I get trying to keep these guys ready 0:24:05.480 --> 0:24:09.840 to go for the season. But it's like I can 0:24:09.880 --> 0:24:12.040 go right now. I can do a training cap right now, 0:24:13.000 --> 0:24:14.920 I can do a training cat right now. But all 0:24:14.920 --> 0:24:17.919 these days off. So is it all these less petted 0:24:17.960 --> 0:24:20.520 practices like I don't know what, more like you're not 0:24:20.560 --> 0:24:23.520 as physical as you used to be, you don't practice, 0:24:23.600 --> 0:24:25.760 and on top of that, you're getting all these veteran 0:24:25.760 --> 0:24:27.960
