Speaker 1: It's just one of those stingings. Man. But man, let

Speaker 1: start off by just just litting anybody that don't know
Speaker 1: if you don't have Google, or if you just don't
Speaker 1: know anything about hip hop history. You gotta hit man,
Speaker 1: just a partner of West Coast rap rap in general.
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna tell you, Uh, Doc, back in the day,
Speaker 1: you and the feel of fresh crew, Yeah all right,
Speaker 1: you used to go by dot T. Yeah, yeah, jam called.
Speaker 1: I hate to go to work, you know, as a
Speaker 1: growing up. I grew up to man, I hate to
Speaker 1: go to work all right every morning? Man? Uh was
Speaker 1: it Doctor Rock? You know in Dallas? Anybody that knows
Speaker 1: Dallas the history of detail hip hop um would would
Speaker 1: understand obviously from what you did later in your career.
Speaker 1: But man, that was the start of it for me.
Speaker 1: And I never forget big tea bersare I saw you,
Speaker 1: Doctor Rock, bought y'all, the big teapers are y'all had
Speaker 1: the feeler zone and the gold ropes, all of that.
Speaker 1: Me and my home was Keimar Brown. We put a
Speaker 1: feelers jumpsuit on Leveway still over that right now. We
Speaker 1: wanted to be down with the feel of fresh crew. Man.
Speaker 1: But but back in those earlier, back in those early days, man,
Speaker 1: I just I gotta dig into this. And you, as
Speaker 1: a partneer man, what was that like coming up in
Speaker 1: the scene of Dallas is because especially for hip hop
Speaker 1: back then, everything was on the East Coast. Yeah it didn't.
Speaker 1: It didn't really exist here um certainly not the way
Speaker 1: it did on the East I mean, but but it
Speaker 1: was a whole bunch of kids out there, you know,
Speaker 1: trying to get into it, you know. And I was
Speaker 1: just lucky enough or blessed enough that I was always
Speaker 1: an avid reader as as a young young youngster. So
Speaker 1: when rap came, I had a plethora as that Stephen.
Speaker 1: They would say, yeah, words in my in my vocabulary
Speaker 1: that I use that the average guys wouldn't use, you know,
Speaker 1: And so they they thought I was special. And when
Speaker 1: you get that that little taste of someone telling you
Speaker 1: you good at something, you really want to be good
Speaker 1: at it, right, And I mean back then especially, I
Speaker 1: mean there was no there was no at that time,
Speaker 1: there was no Dtown rap scene at all. So y'all
Speaker 1: were the first to ask to do that, like for us,
Speaker 1: you know, fall in love with hip hop. For me,
Speaker 1: it was all run dem seed, thick red rugg fresh
Speaker 1: run deals, you know what I mean. Yeah, So for
Speaker 1: you to jump over and do that and Dallas man,
Speaker 1: that that was like for like I said, for me,
Speaker 1: it was it was a whole movement. But then from
Speaker 1: there you transition to go out to the West Coast
Speaker 1: and bring a whole nother stack one of the most
Speaker 1: legendary albums to be written. You wrote it and introduced
Speaker 1: it to the world that moment in hip hop history.
Speaker 1: What was that like for you? Uh? It was? It
Speaker 1: was amazing, bro. You know it was coming from Dallas,
Speaker 1: going going out there to California. Hell, California didn't really
Speaker 1: exist then. Yeah, they didn't let the guys on radio. Um,
Speaker 1: it was hard to make well what they would call,
Speaker 1: you know, edgy rap music. Everything was pop out there
Speaker 1: and the l A dream Team and super sign thinking
Speaker 1: and all of that kind of stuff. But for me,
Speaker 1: being being in part of that whole NWA movement was
Speaker 1: everything you would think it would be. It was just
Speaker 1: really dope and to be connected with all of that
Speaker 1: great sound. Yeah not. I mean it's getting funky enough. Man,
Speaker 1: You're bringing me back to my whole like high school. Man.
Speaker 1: You don't even ce PC a young guy, all right,
Speaker 1: that but but he he an old young guy. Yeah no, no,
Speaker 1: nor so so a lot of this I'm just telling you, Like,
Speaker 1: for us is got from Dallas. The DC was like
Speaker 1: that voice where everybody on the West Coast I was
Speaker 1: trying to claim him and we wouldn't let him. We're
Speaker 1: like Noah. Now he might have on the LA hat,
Speaker 1: but he even wins Dallas. He for right around here, man.
Speaker 1: And I just want to make sure that I give
Speaker 1: you your flowers to date to let you know how
Speaker 1: instrumental you are in hip hop. And I know everybody
Speaker 1: that know you know you as a legend, but I
Speaker 1: just wanted to come off my lips to yours to
Speaker 1: let you know, man, that I appreciate everything that you've
Speaker 1: done for the scene, not only here in Dallas but worldwide.
Speaker 1: And man, that's it's just awesome to have you here
Speaker 1: in the building. But Doc, we're gonna get to these cowboys, man,
Speaker 1: because I want you to. I want to hear from you.
Speaker 1: What is your thought process on the twenty twenty two
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys. Well, I mean we look real good, bro.
Speaker 1: We you know, dcor Bottom, We better than than hell everybody.
Speaker 1: I mean, we we are competing at we we are side.
Speaker 1: We're a solid football team on in all three phases football,
Speaker 1: and we really kind of a way above average and
Speaker 1: all three phases. So you see what happens when we
Speaker 1: can put when we put a perfect game together, Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: we go get the act bad. Yeah, and the col
Speaker 1: and so what what these Cowboys have put together in
Speaker 1: terms of this defense in the past couple of years
Speaker 1: has been amazing. Man. You know, we gotta we gotta
Speaker 1: pack of young wolves out there, and they all hungry.
Speaker 1: Yeah you know, and they get out there led by
Speaker 1: number eleven and the act real bad consistently, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And so look, I'm I already got
Speaker 1: my ticket. I don't know about the rest he booked up. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you already got the Airbnb and everything. I'm ready to go. Man,
Speaker 1: this is uh you know for me. And we talk
Speaker 1: about this daily on the show about how this Cowboys
Speaker 1: season has a good run all over. We don't want
Speaker 1: to say the s B word, all right, Yeah, we
Speaker 1: don't want to take yourself. It's a reason why water Jacket,
Speaker 1: I see it, God Slot, It's a reason why water
Speaker 1: had uh huh. Understand me. You only get in when
Speaker 1: you're tell them you're coming in. Yeah, we're coming in.
Speaker 1: You feel it? Bro? We look good man? So so
Speaker 1: so I see you got the Super Bowl patches right there.
Speaker 1: I see that if you see that there's any similarities
Speaker 1: between those teams and its twenty twenty two Dallas Cowboys. Tom.
Speaker 1: You know what, the only thing that I see, um,
Speaker 1: because the error changed the game. Ye what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: it's true. But we're trying to get back to a
Speaker 1: consistent run, which is what Cowboys football is all about.
Speaker 1: If you if you take, you know, I tell my friends,
Speaker 1: if we take what they give us, then they're gonna
Speaker 1: give us what we want a lot of times out
Speaker 1: of ten because we got too many. You know, we
Speaker 1: got a team for the really great football players. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, gallib look really great. Uh, these past couple
Speaker 1: of weeks. He's coming along, and don't let the other
Speaker 1: person come down here, man, it's just come on, bro.

Speaker 1: He has school duty today. He's working on his master's degree.
Speaker 1: And also, uh, Danny mccraie is on the show. He's
Speaker 1: on special assignment. Um, but we always talk about the
Speaker 1: the old Deell Beckham need verse, won't you know? Right now,
Speaker 1: it don't see to me and the BC, it doesn't
Speaker 1: seem like much of a need. It seems more like
Speaker 1: a won't, especially for the way that this this defense
Speaker 1: is operating and the way that this offense is operating
Speaker 1: on the dack. When you look at a player like
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham in your mind, are you saying to yourself
Speaker 1: like he is the key piece that we need to
Speaker 1: push us towards uh championship potential. Well, we already championship potential.
Speaker 1: Let's let's get that at the top. But if you
Speaker 1: get a guy like that in here, even coming out
Speaker 1: what he's coming off of being who he is, he
Speaker 1: opens up the game for everybody. Everybody get a chance
Speaker 1: to eat now because you gotta you have to pay
Speaker 1: so much attention to all three of those guys and
Speaker 1: those two guys in the backfield and Dak like man
Speaker 1: picky poison. Yeah, I mean, like, how can you stop that?
Speaker 1: And what a defense like? I always go back to
Speaker 1: this defense becausin man, what those guys have shown. Uh,
Speaker 1: they're a resilient bunch of of young men, you know, Uh,
Speaker 1: I was blessed enough to speak to the team UM
Speaker 1: in California the night before they played the Rams and
Speaker 1: meet all those guys, strong bunch of young dudes, resilient
Speaker 1: bunch of guys. They got the head on writing. They
Speaker 1: focused on the mission that's in front of them. Bro. Defense,
Speaker 1: when's championship? Bro? You know that? And we got a
Speaker 1: strong defense and the young boys is on where I
Speaker 1: think we might be. You know, we might be in
Speaker 1: the inter spiral. We can get us two or three. Oh, whoa,
Speaker 1: here we go? All right? Open it. So usually that's me.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna positive. They called me positive round. That's what
Speaker 1: I do, Doc. But I want to talk about your message, because, man,
Speaker 1: you are doing something now that's completely different from where
Speaker 1: you were in the past. And you talk about talking
Speaker 1: to speaking to the team. Your message to the team
Speaker 1: that night when you got an opportunity to talk to
Speaker 1: them before the Rams came, it was really about it.
Speaker 1: It's a testimony of where I am today after all
Speaker 1: the things that I've had to sort of walked through
Speaker 1: to be here today. You know what I mean. Um,
Speaker 1: I was just trying to make those guys aware that
Speaker 1: this is a moment that they end and if they
Speaker 1: really concentrate on capturing this moment, how great it could
Speaker 1: be for their futures. They're they're talented dudes. Um a
Speaker 1: great bunch of guys. I heard. I heard Michael say,
Speaker 1: you know, they came around and take pictures. I heard
Speaker 1: him in the back of me say, I don't know Ill,
Speaker 1: but I like him. But you can't do no better
Speaker 1: than that. And yeah, bro, these those guys as my
Speaker 1: little brothers. That's that's why I feel about them, you know,
Speaker 1: after that night, and I want the best one. I
Speaker 1: want I want this. I want this win for them
Speaker 1: in the worst way, not only because I feel like
Speaker 1: they are really capable of it, but they're good guys
Speaker 1: and they deserve it. The city deserves it. Yeah. You know,
Speaker 1: it's been a nice little drought for us. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: feel like we've been getting that kick some real arts.

Speaker 1: ninety ninety six, All right, ninety six. I run down
Speaker 1: that with my CD. He's out there DC right over there.
Speaker 1: Mind you, I mean not the environment conducive to be
Speaker 1: introducing yourself to another man and the CD. But either way,
Speaker 1: I brave the crowd walk over there. They led me
Speaker 1: into the private area. I give him my CD. Wait
Speaker 1: all night just to just have a give my CD
Speaker 1: step back. I ain't men check me out, you want
Speaker 1: you know whatever? And the like man manager called me
Speaker 1: over there, said, man, look at your CD. The doc
Speaker 1: used my CD as a coaster. Man had a drink
Speaker 1: sitting on the stop on my CD. Man, my man
Speaker 1: was keeping it. I ain't even a drink, Steady had
Speaker 1: a drink standing on top of my CD. Man. You
Speaker 1: know what I did. I took I took your drink off,
Speaker 1: White mc cousin. You don't have the little circle. I
Speaker 1: took you dwight and cleaning things off. Back in the day,
Speaker 1: I picked myself back up. Man, I feel bad. Don't
Speaker 1: you feel bad about that? I wouldn't be where I
Speaker 1: am the day. It wasn't that for that kind of
Speaker 1: resiliency and people doing stuff like that with your name though,
Speaker 1: I got the rat heck man, I just that's it,
Speaker 1: you know. I love man. That guy put me in
Speaker 1: the name of that movie was hustling fuzz. Never literally
Speaker 1: left left my use my CD real like the hustling flow.
Speaker 1: Yes you did, and it was all good. I wiped
Speaker 1: my stuff off and said, I that's cool. I get
Speaker 1: it somebody else. Then. I ain't worried about it had
Speaker 1: brush it off. He Man, I wouldn't be right up
Speaker 1: the day man, it had I been ultra sensitive. But
Speaker 1: let's right, hey true, but hey, look at God. That's right, God,
Speaker 1: look at how look at how things work. Man. But
Speaker 1: that's just one. That's just another. I got another one though.
Speaker 1: Like I said, we gonna keep we gonna keep going.
Speaker 1: But uh, man, we were talking about the big briefcase
Speaker 1: to end and man, the way that he's playing right now,
Speaker 1: it looks like his runaway for Defensive Player of the
Speaker 1: Year being man uh nfl vent somebody that's seen, you know,
Speaker 1: played at the high level as being one of the
Speaker 1: best in the business. Do you believe that this is
Speaker 1: an award that they might just go ahead and put
Speaker 1: the boat on and put his name on and sending
Speaker 1: on over here to the star. Man, I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: lie to you. If if it was anybody else, if
Speaker 1: it was anybody else on any other team, I would
Speaker 1: say he still got a you know, some ways to go.
Speaker 1: But seeing as though this guy has coming here not
Speaker 1: only as a rookie changed the game, but also coming
Speaker 1: in the second year being that bona fide leader, getting
Speaker 1: rally in the troops and what he does for that defense,
Speaker 1: not only himself as being ultra talented. We all know
Speaker 1: the guy's extremely talented, but he sets everybody else up.
Speaker 1: Similar to what she was talking about with Odell. He
Speaker 1: sets everybody else up with the one on ones to succeed.
Speaker 1: And I just don't think this defense would be where
Speaker 1: it's at right now if he wasn't in the lineup.
Speaker 1: And then you throw on top of that, the Dallas
Speaker 1: Cowboys play so many primetime games, so many primetime games,
Speaker 1: so you get a chance all the voters, all the viewers,
Speaker 1: they get a chance to see him on display pretty
Speaker 1: much each and every week. If they had on primetime,
Speaker 1: there on the Fox Game of the week in the afternoon,
Speaker 1: they're on some form of national television, and that puts
Speaker 1: him on a pedestal, that puts him on top of
Speaker 1: the stage to get all the viewers, all the boats.
Speaker 1: So if he keeps going away, he's going it's a rat,
Speaker 1: gets the baby. It's over with put a bow on it.
Speaker 1: This guy's gonna walk away with Defensive Player of the Year.
Speaker 1: And that's what he deserves because he's a boss man.
Speaker 1: He's a foller. Now DLC, you've seen a ton of
Speaker 1: great NFL players. When you see Michael Parsons, like what
Speaker 1: does he And a lot of people like to draw comparisons,
Speaker 1: but I would like to know what is your direct
Speaker 1: comparison to what you see for Michael Parsons. You know what,
Speaker 1: I don't have a I don't have a I don't
Speaker 1: have anything I can draw from for that. No. Man,
Speaker 1: the guy's just uh, he's a generational talent. Man. It's
Speaker 1: just it's hard to keep him away from the action.
Speaker 1: I don't care where he's at. Man, if you let
Speaker 1: him do what he does, well, he's going to allow
Speaker 1: you to win games. Yeah, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: So multiple uh defensive player her if you ask me,
Speaker 1: he bought a few of them before. But before he
Speaker 1: leaves this game, you know. And uh, like Barry was saying,
Speaker 1: he allows everybody to eat and if everybody get a
Speaker 1: chance to get them some food, and bro, you you
Speaker 1: got a happy defensive corps out there. Yes, everybody on
Speaker 1: that offensive line is getting a chance to get some
Speaker 1: of that food back down and it just looks great.
Speaker 1: What wasn't that wasn't number Oh it wasn't number six?
Speaker 1: Was his name? Wilson? That's my guy. Man. Yeah, that
Speaker 1: guy brings wood. Brain reminds me of wood, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, Yeah, the way he bring the wood.
Speaker 1: I mean, you gotta have a dude that's ready to
Speaker 1: go out there slank some of that meat in that
Speaker 1: position and uh uh of course from number seven from heaven.
Speaker 1: But God, did you know? I mean like, we got
Speaker 1: a really talented group of guys. Man. I love his change.
Speaker 1: It's a great football team. Erry did a great job,
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah. Now, front office wise, that's one of
Speaker 1: the things that I've I've been applauding, you know, Will
Speaker 1: McClay in the job that they've done done putting this
Speaker 1: defense together, even letting go of some pieces that people
Speaker 1: thought was Hey man, Randy Gregory, you know, we talked
Speaker 1: about him and and him being the key pieces. When
Speaker 1: he got let go, it was like, man, what are
Speaker 1: we gonna do? Uh? And then we didn't know that
Speaker 1: Dante Fowler would be the player that he is, Don's
Speaker 1: Armstrong would be the player that he is, and all
Speaker 1: of those things. I think that's what's so shocking about
Speaker 1: the developments of everything that's happened on defense, specifically from
Speaker 1: where we were in twenty twenty when we gave up
Speaker 1: the most yards ever as the Dallas Cowboys franchise to
Speaker 1: where we are two short years later. Yeah, man, you
Speaker 1: know that. To me, I think that's the biggest surprise.
Speaker 1: But just transitioning where we are right now. I think
Speaker 1: most people think that the Achilles heel of this defense
Speaker 1: is the run game. But over the last couple of games,
Speaker 1: we've seen where they haven't allowed a hundred yard Russia,
Speaker 1: and they've gone against some dogs, and they have gone
Speaker 1: against some dogs, and this Sunday specifically, you have another
Speaker 1: dog coming into at and T Stadium. But if this
Speaker 1: defense is able to you know, still not allow a
Speaker 1: hundred yard Russia, does that give you that trust time, consistency,
Speaker 1: in proof that we now see that this defense is
Speaker 1: now kind of alleviated those ghosts or what people think
Speaker 1: is the weakness in this defense. I would have to
Speaker 1: say so because if you think about it, like you said,
Speaker 1: time proof and consistency and consistently they have gone against
Speaker 1: these past three weeks, including Jonathan Taylor when they play
Speaker 1: him on Sunday, they'll have gone against Dalvin Cook, who's
Speaker 1: a dog. He's just east sa Quon Barkley who gashed
Speaker 1: us the first time we lay, we got to win,
Speaker 1: but they still gashed us. And then this week Jonathan Taylor,
Speaker 1: those are to me three of the top ten running
Speaker 1: backs International Football League. And if you can contain those
Speaker 1: guys and hold all three of those guys to under
Speaker 1: one hundred yards, I think they've gotten that right mentality
Speaker 1: and that swarming mentality where this is what we have
Speaker 1: to do to stop the run. We can't have a
Speaker 1: lot of hero ball, gotta be gap discipline out there,
Speaker 1: and I've noticed these past couple of weeks they've gotten
Speaker 1: into that gang tackling mode. There's no there's no one
Speaker 1: on ones out there with this defense. Whoever has the rock,
Speaker 1: you see three full five hats to the ball. At
Speaker 1: the same time there's wrestling. They're moving around and they're
Speaker 1: getting the ball carrier on the ground, and that's something
Speaker 1: we didn't see early on in the weeks. You know,
Speaker 1: I think it was learning for Nette. The first week
Speaker 1: he wearing for one hundred and twenty one and you know,
Speaker 1: the yards started piling up. But lately these guys have
Speaker 1: gotten into that gang tackle mentality and it's really limited
Speaker 1: these carriers. So to me, if they're able to go
Speaker 1: out there and limit Jonathan Taylor. It'll be a step
Speaker 1: in the right direction to get this run defense settled.
Speaker 1: Do you feel the same way. Absolutely agree. I said
Speaker 1: earlier that resilience is it's a word that really describes
Speaker 1: the sho this young defense. Of course, especially after that
Speaker 1: first game with Brady. Yeah, how after that goes out there,
Speaker 1: really step up and give Cooper a chance to be
Speaker 1: to play some great football, you know what, man, so um,
Speaker 1: the reason we are in a position that we're in
Speaker 1: right now is that we can ain't our had on
Speaker 1: these guys. They're gonna show up every Sunday. They're gonna
Speaker 1: give you everything they got. And it sounds like it
Speaker 1: seems like we got enough of them that you can
Speaker 1: move these guys in and out keep them fresh and hungry. Exactly.
Speaker 1: I think we learned a lot up there in Green Bay,
Speaker 1: you know, as far as the run game is concerned,
Speaker 1: and if we stick to you know this, this, this
Speaker 1: letting Michael do what he does best and sure up
Speaker 1: those other areas will be great. Man, We're gonna be fantastic.
Speaker 1: So let Michael do what he does best. Has been
Speaker 1: a ongoing debate here in this building because I'm I'm
Speaker 1: sure you I don't know. Let me say defensive end. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's okay, okay, you really gotta find out what side
Speaker 1: people all goes. That's some people to say linebacker, some
Speaker 1: people say ed Russia. For me, it's ed Russia winter Meat.
Speaker 1: One of the great one in one of the greatest
Speaker 1: disruptors in football right now is that man. Let that
Speaker 1: man be a man out there. Man. Yeah, it's gonna
Speaker 1: make the whole team then no, And I love what
Speaker 1: you say about you know when he eats, And for me,
Speaker 1: it's it's because the offensive line has to pay so
Speaker 1: much attention to him that two guys are always relegated
Speaker 1: up front for him. That means that these guys are
Speaker 1: always in a one on one situation. If you're putt
Speaker 1: in a one on one situation, you supposed to win
Speaker 1: every time and get to the and get to the football.
Speaker 1: But man, and switching over to the other side of
Speaker 1: the ball, and being eight and three right now, looking
Speaker 1: at the games that we have ahead of us, and
Speaker 1: I don't ever want to count my chickens before they hatch.
Speaker 1: But the Cowboys look to be set up to be
Speaker 1: to kind of run the table, right now um to
Speaker 1: to have. Let's say, at the end of this, I'm
Speaker 1: looking at possibly being eleven and three going into our
Speaker 1: Christmas Eve game. I hate the Eagles, I say that, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I hate the Yeah, I don't you know, I have
Speaker 1: a good things. We made a bet on this game,
Speaker 1: on this on this podcast doc, and I said the
Speaker 1: Cowboys was up by twenty before we got off the plane.
Speaker 1: I did, I did, I did. I said that. I
Speaker 1: said a chance to like you show you and they bet.
Speaker 1: You know, they thought I was you know, you know McGruff.
Speaker 1: You know I was too gruff for that. It was like, man,
Speaker 1: you know I had they been a tasty cake. This
Speaker 1: is a Philadelphia telecontesta. Whatever I end up having to
Speaker 1: eat it. It was horrible. But anyway, not getting all
Speaker 1: subject right now, I just feel like offensively, with Dak
Speaker 1: being back, that changes the dynamical of where we are
Speaker 1: and there not a lot of people are gonna give
Speaker 1: Number four his credit for the the player that he is.
Speaker 1: What's your doc, what's your what's your what's your opinion
Speaker 1: on Dak Prescott as a president as a quarterback. I
Speaker 1: came in saw it, and so that is a that
Speaker 1: is a great NFL quarterback has been for a long time,
Speaker 1: UM and and whether it's injury, whether it's situations, UH
Speaker 1: has always put us in there in a spot where
Speaker 1: we couldn't be our best. Right now, everything is set
Speaker 1: up for him to be Super Bowl quarterback and he's
Speaker 1: got all the ability and talent to be that. He
Speaker 1: showed you and in what was ninety nine point nine
Speaker 1: to send a perfect game in Minnesota. Every throw was
Speaker 1: fantastic to do. Look like a video game. I mean,
Speaker 1: so you can't play like that and tell me you're
Speaker 1: not that guy. You just have to put him in
Speaker 1: a position him and with what Deep is doing out
Speaker 1: there and Zeke getting back healthy, like, it's just really
Speaker 1: it's really hard to maintain uh any kind of sense
Speaker 1: of the corum defensively against this this this monster's got
Speaker 1: too many heads on it. Boy, you from Dallas for real? Yeah?
Speaker 1: You a detail? See, Yeah, that's how they gonna see
Speaker 1: that detail for real? You know, we call it jumping
Speaker 1: out the cake here boys, and you know, minds, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go already got my ticket. Sorry to my little brothers.
Speaker 1: If I'm jumping the gun in front of the whole world,
Speaker 1: understand me. I'm going to Arizona. No, man, this is hey,
Speaker 1: this is that Friday show man. This is what we do,
Speaker 1: and it's to get this team ready not only for Sunday,
Speaker 1: but it's decemble football time. And so this is the
Speaker 1: tough This is when it counts, and this is where hey, man,
Speaker 1: if you're gonna jump out, there can't. The time to
Speaker 1: do it is right now. But we're gonna take our
Speaker 1: last break and be back with more of the players. Land.

Speaker 1: We had a blast. Great man, no man, greatium of
Speaker 1: being really good fan. Yeah. David Harrison, David Harrison, My
Speaker 1: uncle Man is god Brest and so was Man. I'm
Speaker 1: made me a cowboy fan of reasons that I'm a
Speaker 1: cowboy fans because of my uncle David, and all I
Speaker 1: told you, my whole family, Pittsburgh still a fans caused
Speaker 1: Marca Joe, and so it was Hey, Marca, Marca. David
Speaker 1: was the only one man, nobody talking noise like David. Nobody. Now,
Speaker 1: you're not gonna win no kind of fights around Dave. No. Yeah,
Speaker 1: super day, super Dave. Man, that's my uncle. Man, love
Speaker 1: him to death, miss him every day. But man, that's
Speaker 1: that's just awesome. Like I said, Man, it just comes
Speaker 1: full circle. And for you to be here, Man, it's
Speaker 1: just and I'm hey, I'm overjoyed man with with your presence.
Speaker 1: But the NFC East is gonna get real interesting this weekend.
Speaker 1: The Philadelphia Eagles have a showdown with the Tennessee Titans.
Speaker 1: That's a big game. That's a big game. It's an
Speaker 1: other game. The Commanders and the Giants play each other.
Speaker 1: So yeah, let's you know, throw a sharp object in
Speaker 1: the room which you want to come out. I don't
Speaker 1: get that's the way I feel about that game. But
Speaker 1: the Cowboys have an opportunity to make up some room
Speaker 1: in the NFC East that the Titans can beat them.
Speaker 1: And obviously, the Cowboys keep with their winning ways and
Speaker 1: get a victory on Christmas Eve. How what's your approach
Speaker 1: to this BC. Do you believe that the NFC East
Speaker 1: is as important to the Cowboys because again, you get
Speaker 1: a home game. We talked about this a little bit yesterday.
Speaker 1: Do you think that that should be singular approach to
Speaker 1: this organization? No, I like it. I like having home games.
Speaker 1: It's playoff games. I like, you know, going in there
Speaker 1: and being in that home atmosphere. I know last year,
Speaker 1: you know, forty nine Ers came in here, they beat
Speaker 1: the Cowboys in the wild card. I understand that, but
Speaker 1: I feel as though this team is a little bit
Speaker 1: more mature, you know. I feel like McCarthy has done
Speaker 1: a much better job this year of getting this team
Speaker 1: prepared and ready to play and more discipline. You know,
Speaker 1: we still see the penalties, but not as much as
Speaker 1: last year. So I feel like this team is ready
Speaker 1: to go there. They're they're they're veteran led. They got
Speaker 1: Dak the gas Zeke, they got the boys on defense.
Speaker 1: So I feel like they're ready to go in the
Speaker 1: home playoff game to start the playoffs. I think would
Speaker 1: do them justice. Um. The only thing that's in the
Speaker 1: way of that is the Philadelphia Eagles and this matchup
Speaker 1: coming up this week, and I think it's huge. I
Speaker 1: think this matchup against the Tennessee Titans for the Eagles
Speaker 1: is huge for both them and the Cowboys because if
Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans are able to beat the Eagles, then
Speaker 1: that gives that showdown that comes in Christmas Eve with
Speaker 1: the Dallas and in Philadelphia. That makes it even more
Speaker 1: heightened because then they get to if they win that game,
Speaker 1: it's all it's all squared up then yeah. So to me,
Speaker 1: this is huge or Tennessee Titans. If they were be
Speaker 1: able to beat Philly, that was set the Cowboys up
Speaker 1: great because the rest of the schedule for Philly they
Speaker 1: got you know, the Bears, the Saints, and the Giants
Speaker 1: twice outside of the Cowboys, and I don't see them
Speaker 1: losing any of those teams. But I do feel like
Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans can give them a run for the money.
Speaker 1: So I'm rooting for the Tennessee this weekend. But that's
Speaker 1: gonna be a huge, huge game for both Philly and
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys. Now, as as a former player, have
Speaker 1: you ever not not clock watch but you know game watch?
Speaker 1: Yea to make sure like you you are you as
Speaker 1: a Cowboy player, are you watching that game to see,
Speaker 1: you know, Tennessee get that victory, because at this point
Speaker 1: in DC and excuse me, in December, those all of
Speaker 1: these games were starting to count. Do you do you
Speaker 1: start to look at that Yes, I know all them
Speaker 1: players is looking right at those games. I mean especially
Speaker 1: this one this weekend. They're saying it, if we can
Speaker 1: get this victory there, if they can get a victory
Speaker 1: against Philadelphia, they give us one step closer. So if
Speaker 1: they're able to watch the game, they're gonna be watching
Speaker 1: that game. I don't know what time it comes on,
Speaker 1: but if they're able to watch that, they're gonna watch
Speaker 1: that to make sure, Okay, we got a chance, we
Speaker 1: gotta close these colts out, to make sure we can
Speaker 1: get a step closer. Cats are watching that, you did.
Speaker 1: Players they always say, oh, I don't pay attention to
Speaker 1: the media. I don't pay attention to all those other
Speaker 1: games they watching. They understand what each and every media
Speaker 1: member says about him out there, and they're watching the
Speaker 1: games to see what matchups work out best for them.
Speaker 1: So they're gonna be keeping an out definitely this weekend
Speaker 1: for Philadelphia. Man, how excited are you, Doc? For a
Speaker 1: playoff game at home? I saw you? I think it
Speaker 1: was last week. I saw you. You was at at
Speaker 1: and t Were you there last week? Bro, I've been
Speaker 1: I've been at at every home game for the past
Speaker 1: two years. Well, you look like he exu the last time.
Speaker 1: What I saw, I was like, man, he bawling Sweetwood, Mike, Hey,
Speaker 1: you was everywhere. That's coach McCarthy and uh and his family.
Speaker 1: Coach McCarthy's daughter and I are in the same business, okay.
Speaker 1: And so I met the coach through his daughter okay,
Speaker 1: and he saw my story and he was like, wow,
Speaker 1: I think you're really cool guys as your person man.
Speaker 1: So for the past couple of years, I've been hanging
Speaker 1: out with the McCarty's every game. Bro. I don't ain't
Speaker 1: missing nothing. So you can just call me Doc McCarty.
Speaker 1: I'm all on the sideline. I was on the side.
Speaker 1: I was on the sideline last week. My boy mad
Speaker 1: he didn't get to go on the sideline last week
Speaker 1: checking pictures with the kicker who is one of my heroes.
Speaker 1: See why we we we are solid football team all around.
Speaker 1: When you got a kicker that can kick from sixty
Speaker 1: twice in a row like it's I do this every Sunday.
Speaker 1: Are we ready, bro? Man? I ready? I am. That's
Speaker 1: one of the things that I'm looking forward to. And
Speaker 1: just along with what you said about the probability of
Speaker 1: us getting the play of the magnitude of Odell Beckham,
Speaker 1: if we hit a player like that at and T Stadium,
Speaker 1: gonna be But now they're gonna have to nail. They're
Speaker 1: gonna have to have people on the outside trying to
Speaker 1: hold that thing down. Man. Oh If bro oh PJ
Speaker 1: is on the way, go ahead, and so look that
Speaker 1: sets it up. So it's just man, come on, bro. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but wait, I gotta give it up all these great
