1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,760 Speaker 1: Jerry. First off, I want to extend some New Year's 2 00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:08,440 Speaker 1: Happy New Years to you and to yours. And you 3 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 1: know we were on the air on Tuesday when the 4 00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:14,880 Speaker 1: news came down about John Madden passing and we were 5 00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 1: able to extend your statement and part of which read, 6 00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:20,840 Speaker 1: I'm not aware of anyone who has made a more 7 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:24,000 Speaker 1: meaningful impact on the National Football League than John Madden. 8 00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:26,079 Speaker 1: That was something that I took away from watching what 9 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:28,400 Speaker 1: I did on Christmas Day after thinking about it for 10 00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:30,760 Speaker 1: a little while. Of all the people, and you are 11 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 1: one of those certainly in there with a big impact, 12 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 1: what did John Madden and your eyes do for this league? Well, 13 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:39,839 Speaker 1: first of all, Bobby Will, it's good to be on 14 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 1: with you, and good to be on with you with 15 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:46,320 Speaker 1: the last day of the year, with all the promise 16 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:49,200 Speaker 1: that we've got coming up for this new year in 17 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:53,560 Speaker 1: our future, so it's a great time and it's a 18 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 1: pleasure beyond with you, guys. John Madden was just as 19 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 1: special and unique as any of these tributes that you've 20 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 1: read or heard about him, and that's the point he lived. 21 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 1: He walked, so to speak. Among various constituencies of the NFL, 22 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:23,119 Speaker 1: the number one was the fans, but before he carred 23 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,680 Speaker 1: all the way through, as far as I'm concerned, the 24 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 1: entire gambit of people that are involved in the NFL, 25 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: and he was so consistent. He was carrying a person 26 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: he was able to really look at and live in, 27 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: if you will, a broader picture, a broader world. Television 28 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 1: can do that for you, but we really lived these 29 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 1: days was in the small things. And I think when 30 00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 1: we stop and think about it, when we get so 31 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: caught up, I stop and think about it. I'm advised 32 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: a lot of time, boy, Jerry, be careful. You'd better 33 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: think about the nuances of the small things, the taste 34 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:16,359 Speaker 1: of the top chocolate, the visit that you're having with 35 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 1: someone that isn't exactly at the top of the list 36 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: for getting first downs for the cowboys, all of those 37 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 1: kinds of things. John Madden is about. He lived a 38 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: life like that, and that's why you're seeing him the 39 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: pouring out of expression about it, even because he did 40 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: have that very common thing. I don't know if riding 41 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: in that bust back and forth across the country has 42 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: slowed it down point I'm not for sure, but it 43 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 1: sure represents what I think of when I think of 44 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: John Madden. Yeah, and you know, Jerry, I'm forty two, 45 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: so his time as a coach is a little bit 46 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: before me. Now I know about it obviously, but I 47 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,639 Speaker 1: grew up with John Madden and watching football. And as 48 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: you mentioned, like the impact on television, Well, this is 49 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: right at the time when you bought the Cowboys, Like 50 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: when did you When did you get to know John? 51 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: Like when did you meet him? What was that like? Well, 52 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 1: I was, of course introduced by a virtue of our 53 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: daily business immediately, because John Madden was such a part 54 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: of the of the substance of presenting our games television, 55 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: if you will. And he had the reason that he 56 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: had the authority he had is because he had walked 57 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: the talk, he had lived in. He was a coach 58 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: for a short time. You couldn't have been around very long. 59 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 1: And really, when you look at the tenure of a 60 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: lot of coaches, you couldn't have been around and for 61 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: long or you would have missed it. On the other hand, 62 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: on the other hand, or it was very impactful. I 63 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: had the advantage with John that one of the people 64 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: that I know he thought the most of was Al Davis. 65 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 1: And now Davis, you might say brought him into coaching. 66 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 1: John brought himself into coaching, but al Davis was his 67 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:19,239 Speaker 1: early if you will, not mentor, but early John Madden 68 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: supporter and builder. And having said that and I were 69 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: very close, And so my early days in the NFL 70 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 1: were colored a lot by Al in the sense that 71 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 1: it involved John, because John al thought so much of John. 72 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: He knew him, he knew how deep his integrity went, 73 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 1: he knew his caring aspect, He knew him as well 74 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: as anybody living. And so John didn't have to put 75 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: a resume in front of me to be credible, because 76 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 1: Al Davis had already made him into something, not made him, 77 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:06,799 Speaker 1: but just had made me aware of what John Madden was. Jerry, 78 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: there was some good news for Cowboys fans yesterday to 79 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: Marcus Ware named a finalists for the Pro Football Hall 80 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,040 Speaker 1: of Fame and its firstyear of eligibility. How excited were 81 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 1: you to see that? And when you guys turned in 82 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: his draft card in two thousand and five, did you 83 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 1: ever anticipate he'd become the player that he did? You know? 84 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 1: Really it was one of our more memorable times. And 85 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:31,919 Speaker 1: the answer is yes. We had been looking for years 86 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: for someone that might come along and have some of 87 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 1: the uniqueness of Charles Haley, if you will, but have 88 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:47,480 Speaker 1: the athletic ability that DeMarcus has was something we just 89 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: had never seen. Well, the day of the draft, Bill 90 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 1: ourselves had gotten real excited about Spears. We were trying 91 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 1: to go to the three four away from the four 92 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 1: three defense, three four being three down linement and outside 93 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: linebicker types that did your rushing. But you couldn't get 94 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: there in a year, and that bothered Bill. Well. Spears 95 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 1: fit perfectly. He could go either way. And we had 96 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: two number one picks. Well, we had decided, and I 97 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,480 Speaker 1: sure had decided that we were going to take Where 98 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: well A Bill of course, was really at odds with that, 99 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 1: and I just had convinced myself Where would never be 100 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 1: there if we waited until our twenty first pick. We 101 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 1: had the eleventh and twenty first pick, so we had 102 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: quite a foray before the draft. And I turned his 103 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 1: card in and Bill was sitting right beside me. It 104 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,239 Speaker 1: wouldn't say anything to me and pouting if you will. 105 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: Now you can imagine how that might go. Well, he's writing, 106 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: and he writes out of contract and it basically says 107 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 1: that if where does not average ten sacks a year 108 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 1: for the two years in the NFL. Then he got 109 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 1: five trips a year on my G five jet airplane 110 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: with his significant other if Where didn't. And boy, he 111 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: had it all fixed up beautifully and had signature lines 112 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: on it, and he slipped it over to me, And 113 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: of course Bill was just trying to break the ice 114 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: because we had disagreed there on the pick, and so 115 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: I edit an adnam, I said, I so agreed to 116 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 1: the above he can have if he doesn't make But 117 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: should player make over ten sacks a year, the airplane 118 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: will go. Jerry Jones will be on it. Rhyland Bill 119 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 1: with bill significant other, and I put a signature line 120 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: under that. We still have that contract and it's one 121 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: of the highlights of my time. But we've moved into 122 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 1: where and got into Bill real quick. But Bill, I 123 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: want to be clear. Bill's were of the greatest experiences 124 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: and joys and positive experience I had have had in 125 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: my time in football. So it was just another day 126 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 1: in our relationship. Well, and while there's a lot of 127 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: excitement about Demorcus where there was some disappointment about Darren 128 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: Woodson fail and made the cut. Do you think Darren 129 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 1: Woodson is one of the Hall of Fame's bigger oversights 130 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: at the moment. Yeah, very much about Darren. Darren's just 131 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: in my mind, has to be in the Hall of Fame. Now, 132 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: that doesn't get you anywhere, because Jerry Jones that he 133 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: has to be, but he's everything when we think of 134 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: an impact player and think of someone that represents what 135 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: we would like for the world to see and think 136 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: and evaluate when they see a name in the Hall 137 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: of Fame. His background coming to the NFL, his time 138 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 1: in the NFL, his leadership, ability of what he was 139 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 1: as a player, which is the big criteria. All of 140 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 1: that Darren Woodson needs in the Hall of Fame. Jerry, 141 00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:01,079 Speaker 1: do you feel that this is a team that maybe 142 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,679 Speaker 1: your best shot at a world title since those mid 143 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: nineties teams, Well, we've I'm reluctant just because of the 144 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:16,199 Speaker 1: want to jinx it as much as anything, but I 145 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 1: like the way that we have evolved relative to what's 146 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 1: happened to us injury wise, availability wise, We've had early 147 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: some real unavailable top players because of injury, and that's 148 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: caused us to get depth now or get a lot 149 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 1: of young players ready to play and our alternative to 150 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 1: young would be a free agent type player that might 151 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: not have played as much. Well, boy, those guys have 152 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: gotten all kinds of snaps, and it goes throughout the roster, 153 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: completely throughout the roster. And consequently we've got sitting here 154 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:01,200 Speaker 1: with our now some of the top players that at 155 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 1: least we thought that we're going to be top players 156 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:07,439 Speaker 1: when we came out of training camp. They've become available. 157 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: They're out there, they're in shape, they're ready to play, 158 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 1: they're playing, and plus we've got that depth behind them, 159 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: and so I'm hoping that that's going to be a 160 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 1: real advantage for us. As you know, boy, it is 161 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:26,199 Speaker 1: so dicey to talk about what happens in the playoffs 162 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: because we don't have multi game playoffs. It's all decided 163 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: in one afternoon or one night, and that's that's what 164 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: you've got. So you can have a good team and 165 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:40,079 Speaker 1: not get there. I've been fortunate to be involved with 166 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:44,719 Speaker 1: three teams. I think that certainly could have gone all 167 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 1: the way over the last thirty twenty five years and 168 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 1: not gone all the way any one of them. That 169 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: would have changed the picture around here a lot. But 170 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,080 Speaker 1: that's part of what we sign up for. That's the NFL. 171 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 1: That's football. Yeah. I know, anybody that's around the team 172 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 1: and close to them and covering them knows how badly 173 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 1: you want to win. I know you don't want to 174 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: jinx it. But does it make you feel, especially with 175 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 1: having those recent teams like back in fourteen and sixteen, 176 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: like restless at all knowing that you know how fleeting 177 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 1: it can be, especially when you got a group as 178 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 1: talented as this one. Well, the last sentence you said there, 179 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 1: I think it's well recognized that our talent level is recognized. 180 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: And that's that's really important because right with ability, maybe 181 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 1: ever bit is equal to ability is availability. So if 182 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:54,559 Speaker 1: our talent is available and our talent is ready to play, 183 00:11:55,600 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 1: I have had current rep reps go it all the 184 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,679 Speaker 1: way to as Zeke or whether it's Dak or whoever did. 185 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: If that time it's ready to go and we're getting 186 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: into the playoffs, then that bodes well because this is 187 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:13,719 Speaker 1: what you've got when you get there, and what you 188 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:15,839 Speaker 1: got when you get there in your first quarter, your 189 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,559 Speaker 1: first half as you get into the playoffs, and so 190 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 1: I don't want to be redundant, but the most encouraging 191 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:27,440 Speaker 1: thing about our situation is our talent availability as we 192 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 1: sit here today, Jerry, you talk about availability there with 193 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: COVID surging not only across the league, but I mean 194 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 1: across the entire world right now, Have you guys given 195 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 1: any consideration to using the omni next door as a 196 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:43,959 Speaker 1: sort of bubble for the players during the playoffs? Well, 197 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 1: we encourage our players to be smart and that encompasses everything, 198 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: and you and I vibed in it every day. I 199 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: talk a good game, but when I get out in 200 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: the weeds, I don't fact it's a good game. I 201 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:04,559 Speaker 1: find myself right in the middle of a big conversation 202 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 1: with no mask on. For better or for worse, I've 203 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 1: got to do better. We have to realize as we 204 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: as a team, as an organization, as we move into 205 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 1: these playoffs, and we don't have to be told. We 206 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: can look at the experience that's happening with teams every 207 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: day and we can see them shut down, are really altered, 208 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: are really compromised by not having players available. We've got 209 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 1: a great system in place as I see it for 210 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: the times right now, and our testing time basically symptoms 211 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 1: based evaluation of where a player is COVID. Wise, all 212 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 1: of this I think is the practical best way for 213 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 1: us to work as a league, and it works for 214 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys right now, the one we're in right now. 215 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 1: Will we make a change if we have to, of 216 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 1: course will. That's what we've learned as much as anything, 217 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: is the ambiguity that's sitting here with this COVID and 218 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:13,440 Speaker 1: the ability to make decisions and try something else now 219 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 1: despite the COVID. And we all know the situation yours 220 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: truly certainly at the moment. But how wild is Jerry 221 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: Jones getting tonight for New Year's Excuse me? How wild 222 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: is Jerry Jones? New Year is going to get? Jerry 223 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 1: Jones is going to be a pretty simple, quiet boy tonight. 224 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: And again I'm going to practice of what I'm sitting 225 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: here actually referring to, and I'm going to be careful 226 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: as opposed to New Year's eves in my life, and 227 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 1: I'm going to be thankful to get to be a 228 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 1: part of this thing. As we wake up tomorrow. I'm 229 00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: excited about being out at that stadium today, be there 230 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 1: for the Alabama guess Cincinnati game. And so I'm just 231 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 1: gonna smell the roses here tonight, and if I miss 232 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 1: a beat, miss a dance, then it won't hurt because 233 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 1: I have danced these souls off these feet for the 234 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 1: last some odd years, and so it won't be that 235 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: I haven't done it. If I don't do it tonight, 236 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 1: well we know that it'll be well worth it. And 237 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 1: what you see on Sunday going into the playoffs again, Jerry, 238 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 1: Happy New Years to you and yours.
