How are 0:01:03.760 --> 0:01:04.480 we doing today? 0:01:04.800 --> 0:01:06.000 How are you doing? Is the question? 0:01:06.319 --> 0:01:10.080 That's a great question. I'm glad you asked. I'm doing fantastic. 0:01:10.240 --> 0:01:13.319 Why because the Texas Rangers are world champions? Oh that 0:01:13.440 --> 0:01:14.360 sounds good to say. 0:01:14.440 --> 0:01:16.920 How about that? Holy cow? How about the Rangers? 0:01:17.760 --> 0:01:21.280 Took a while, took fifty two years in Texas sixty 0:01:21.920 --> 0:01:23.360 four years as a franchise. 0:01:24.200 --> 0:01:24.880 They got it done. 0:01:24.959 --> 0:01:28.039 Though it's unbelievable. It's uh, it doesn't feel real yet, 0:01:28.319 --> 0:01:29.240 doesn't feel real yet. 0:01:29.360 --> 0:01:31.200 No, it feels like a dream. I was telling in 0:01:31.240 --> 0:01:33.600 Isaiah this. Isaiah is a big Seattle Mariners fan. So 0:01:33.640 --> 0:01:35.839 of course we've always gone back and forth. I worked 0:01:35.840 --> 0:01:38.320 in the Mariners organization. But when I was done with 0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:41.280 my games in West Virginia, whenever I was calling minor 0:01:41.360 --> 0:01:43.120 league baseball, I would. 0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:45.720 Go home and on the drive home, drive home. 0:01:45.560 --> 0:01:48.200 I would tune into the Rangers games and listen to 0:01:48.200 --> 0:01:50.160 the end of whatever was happening. Because we were East 0:01:50.400 --> 0:01:53.400 Eastern Standard Time, I would turn it on Eric Madel, 0:01:53.600 --> 0:01:56.200 Matt Hicks, Jared Sandler, and I'd listen to the endo 0:01:56.200 --> 0:02:00.320 the Rangers game. And so I've kind of had my 0:02:00.360 --> 0:02:02.200 toe in both both camps previously. 0:02:02.240 --> 0:02:04.640 But I was always I was born. 0:02:04.480 --> 0:02:07.840 And raised a Rangers fan. I grew up a Rangers fan, 0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:10.600 die hard. I mean, if I had to rank the 0:02:10.680 --> 0:02:14.160 four teams as a child, of course, now and one 0:02:14.160 --> 0:02:17.480 pays the bills, so go Cowboys. But if I had 0:02:17.480 --> 0:02:19.960 to rank the four teams of my fandom, the Rangers 0:02:19.960 --> 0:02:22.280 would have been number one from the junk number one, 0:02:22.400 --> 0:02:24.720 Cowboys number two, and that was kind of it was 0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:26.919 jumbled from there, depending on if the stars or maps 0:02:26.919 --> 0:02:30.680 were good. But to see them finally get it done, 0:02:30.720 --> 0:02:33.840 it was surreal because it always felt like it was 0:02:33.880 --> 0:02:36.600 something you only saw on MLB the show. Yeah, you 0:02:36.639 --> 0:02:40.320 only saw in video games or in your wildest dreams. 0:02:40.440 --> 0:02:43.320 Especially as they lost one hundred and two games last 0:02:43.480 --> 0:02:46.040 or two years ago, lost ninety four games last year, 0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:47.800 you felt like they were moving in the right direction. 0:02:48.639 --> 0:02:50.400 You didn't realize that this was. 0:02:50.400 --> 0:02:53.440 The end result of a twenty twenty three season, and 0:02:53.600 --> 0:02:55.320 it brought up a lot of emotions. Brought up a 0:02:55.360 --> 0:02:57.400 lot of nostalgia of going to the ballpark as a 0:02:57.440 --> 0:03:02.359 kid and really forming the early love for sports with 0:03:02.400 --> 0:03:06.360 my parents and with my sister, and just being around 0:03:06.360 --> 0:03:08.959 the game as it was. Yeah, finally got it done 0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:10.880 last night, and it felt like the culmination of all 0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:13.040 those emotions. Got a little emotional last night. I was 0:03:13.040 --> 0:03:15.600 in Waco actually got to watch the final outs with 0:03:15.639 --> 0:03:16.440 my parents. 0:03:16.160 --> 0:03:18.440 Which was special, and we did it. 0:03:18.760 --> 0:03:20.679 We did it court side at the Feral Center because 0:03:20.680 --> 0:03:23.080 I had to call a volleyball game for Baylor and 0:03:23.120 --> 0:03:25.640 ou so I was court sided. After the game was 0:03:25.639 --> 0:03:27.720 over and we pulled it up on my iPad and 0:03:28.000 --> 0:03:30.040 just kind of went from there and watched the final outs. 0:03:30.080 --> 0:03:32.440 So really, it was a cool moment. It's a special moment. 0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:34.960 And then the whole way home tuned into our flagship 0:03:35.240 --> 0:03:36.920 one oh five to three the fan and just kind 0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:40.080 of listened to the celebration, kind of soaked it all in. 0:03:40.160 --> 0:03:41.960 Yeah, I think a lot of Razors fans share your 0:03:42.040 --> 0:03:44.760 sentiments and nostalgia for sure, just because of how close 0:03:44.800 --> 0:03:47.200 they came in twenty eleven. It was so bad that 0:03:47.240 --> 0:03:49.040 even when they were up five to nothing last night, 0:03:49.080 --> 0:03:50.600 everyone knew they were about to win. You get down 0:03:50.600 --> 0:03:52.280 to that final strike and you're like, oh my god, 0:03:52.720 --> 0:03:55.320 we can't do this again. So but no, it was 0:03:55.360 --> 0:03:57.840 really cool looking at the Twitter timeline for like, gosh, 0:03:57.880 --> 0:04:00.200 from like ten pm until one am last night, just 0:04:00.320 --> 0:04:03.200 everybody on there just you know, posting pictures of loved 0:04:03.240 --> 0:04:05.160 ones that may have passed. You know, my pops, he's 0:04:05.200 --> 0:04:07.480 passing twenty eleven. So being able to see that happen 0:04:07.720 --> 0:04:10.800 here in twenty twenty three, it was super cool. So yeah, 0:04:11.160 --> 0:04:13.520 it's why sports are special, and it kind of reminds 0:04:13.520 --> 0:04:14.320 you in times like these. 0:04:14.560 --> 0:04:16.680 Yeah, my grandpa, same thing. 0:04:16.880 --> 0:04:19.320 He's a huge Cowboys fan, or it was a huge 0:04:19.360 --> 0:04:21.960 Cowboys fan, was a huge Rangers fan. He's passed since 0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:24.800 twenty eleven. He watched it with us in twenty eleven, 0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:28.440 so you know, he's smiling. My dad's dad still with us. 0:04:28.600 --> 0:04:30.840 Got to see it, yeah, last night, got to see 0:04:30.839 --> 0:04:34.520 the championship and that it's special both ways because it's 0:04:34.600 --> 0:04:36.640 like that weight's lifted off your shoulders. I know Cowboys 0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:38.719 fans will feel that way when they get back to 0:04:38.760 --> 0:04:39.800 that point, and that's yeah. 0:04:39.839 --> 0:04:41.840 I mean, it could happened this year. You never know 0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:42.680 how sports goes. 0:04:42.720 --> 0:04:45.560 It could happen way down the line, who knows, but 0:04:45.640 --> 0:04:47.880 it'll feel very similar because of the weight that it 0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:48.400 has been. 0:04:48.800 --> 0:04:50.479 But it's still not fifty two years. And that's what 0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:51.719 the Rangers got rid of last night. 0:04:51.800 --> 0:04:53.560 It's pretty fascinating though, too, when you say it, when 0:04:53.600 --> 0:04:56.560 you mentioned the Cowboys thing there. I'm not a Rangers fan. 0:04:56.560 --> 0:04:58.479 I grew up in Detroit. I'm a Tigers fan. But 0:04:58.839 --> 0:05:01.360 from watching how this whole season is unfolded for him, 0:05:01.640 --> 0:05:03.719 it's like one of those if it was comparable to 0:05:03.720 --> 0:05:06.320 the Cowboys. It would be like twenty fourteen where you're 0:05:06.320 --> 0:05:08.640 just kind of like, where did this come from? Like 0:05:08.680 --> 0:05:10.480 how did this all of a sudden, Like, I mean, 0:05:10.480 --> 0:05:11.800 you just go to the end of the regular season. 0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:13.480 I don't think anybody was picking the Rangers to win 0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:16.479 the World Series, let alone go win eleven road games. 0:05:17.000 --> 0:05:18.920 I was telling him Beam when I got in here 0:05:18.960 --> 0:05:21.120 this morning about how if you would have told me 0:05:21.160 --> 0:05:23.120 that I couldn't watch any of it, but told me 0:05:23.160 --> 0:05:25.200 this was the result, I would have been like, oh, 0:05:25.320 --> 0:05:27.479 was there some way that like Jacob de Gram and 0:05:27.520 --> 0:05:30.479 Max Schuser both got healthy and they just were lights 0:05:30.480 --> 0:05:31.360 out throughout the playoff? 0:05:31.360 --> 0:05:31.800 None of that. 0:05:32.240 --> 0:05:34.760 And then the part that surprised me the most is 0:05:34.760 --> 0:05:37.760 how much of a spark Evan Carter was this whole thing, 0:05:37.880 --> 0:05:39.520 Just to think, like, what was it a month ago? 0:05:39.600 --> 0:05:41.359 He was playing down the road in Frisco and then 0:05:41.480 --> 0:05:43.800 and he gets put right into it, sound like they're like, yeah, 0:05:43.839 --> 0:05:45.840 go ahead, you're kind of hot right now, hit ninth 0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:46.960 through it. I mean they put him right in the 0:05:47.000 --> 0:05:50.840 middle of that lineup and played like you know, none 0:05:50.839 --> 0:05:52.360 of that phased him. Like there were just so many 0:05:52.440 --> 0:05:55.560 levels to it that it's surprising, like I could see 0:05:55.560 --> 0:05:56.880 it taking a lot of people like a while for 0:05:56.920 --> 0:05:59.120 it to actually set in, Like how everything just came 0:05:59.160 --> 0:06:00.360 together as quickly as it did. 0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:03.160 The Rangers having the parade in Arlington is very fitting 0:06:03.200 --> 0:06:05.440 and I think it's I think it's exactly where it 0:06:05.480 --> 0:06:07.400 needs to be because the ballpark was there, the old 0:06:07.440 --> 0:06:09.840 old ballpark was there, the new park. Of course, if 0:06:09.839 --> 0:06:11.640 the Cowboys win a Super Bowl, they got to do 0:06:11.680 --> 0:06:14.320 it in downtown Dallas, right, Like, this isn't going to 0:06:14.360 --> 0:06:16.440 be a trend where just everyone does it in Arlington. 0:06:16.560 --> 0:06:16.720 Right. 0:06:16.960 --> 0:06:19.560 We were joking pre show that there would be three 0:06:19.600 --> 0:06:22.600 different stops. It would be Dallas, Arlington, and Frisco, and 0:06:22.640 --> 0:06:24.000 it'd be over the course of three days. 0:06:24.040 --> 0:06:25.520 It'd be like an acl weekend. 0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:27.880 Like you have a wristband and that's that's your way 0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:29.880 to get in, and it's just like a whole it's 0:06:29.920 --> 0:06:33.640 like a weekend festival of lights of Cowboys fans. 0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:36.000 It would be it would be too big to be 0:06:36.040 --> 0:06:37.799 able to put it in Arlington. 0:06:37.839 --> 0:06:39.320 There's no way that it would work out. 0:06:39.360 --> 0:06:41.880 But man, special times, I don't want to take up 0:06:41.920 --> 0:06:44.000 most of the show talking about the Texas Rangers. 0:06:44.040 --> 0:06:46.000 If you want to talk Texas Rangers. You can find 0:06:46.040 --> 0:06:46.240 me on. 0:06:46.240 --> 0:06:48.160 Twitter because I would love to talk about the World 0:06:48.240 --> 0:06:52.400 champions for the for ever because we can because they're 0:06:52.440 --> 0:06:52.960 World champs. 0:06:52.960 --> 0:06:54.440 Really quick, I think I'm coming down with the cold 0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:56.200 and I will not be here tomorrow. Just want to 0:06:56.240 --> 0:06:57.839 let you guys know because of the parade. 0:06:57.920 --> 0:06:59.719 Oh yeah, You're not gonna be here tomorrow. 0:06:59.760 --> 0:07:02.400 Now I'm coming to do the show and then I 0:07:02.440 --> 0:07:06.680 am bouncing the I am. I will be here, but 0:07:06.720 --> 0:07:08.280 then I will be in Arlington. Which, by the way, 0:07:08.279 --> 0:07:09.840 if you're gonna go to the parade, hit us up. 0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:10.480 It'll be fun. 0:07:10.560 --> 0:07:11.920 Isaia, you want to go to the parade. 0:07:12.280 --> 0:07:15.120 I'm good, You're good. Yeah, I've been in the parade before. 0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:19.559 Yeah you have. That was not a slight. 0:07:20.040 --> 0:07:22.560 What's the best part about it other than, you know, 0:07:22.600 --> 0:07:24.280 the certain festivities, but. 0:07:26.320 --> 0:07:29.360 Parade, it's just everybody's sorry for me. It was it 0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:32.360 was the families. Yeah, yeah, like like all the families, 0:07:32.360 --> 0:07:34.240 like at least when we did our parade. When we 0:07:34.240 --> 0:07:36.240 did a parade, I say our, I guess back then 0:07:36.720 --> 0:07:40.680 with the Giants, the families had their own float like, 0:07:41.080 --> 0:07:42.480 they had their own they were on buses. It was 0:07:42.480 --> 0:07:44.920 pretty dope. So they got an opportunity to go through it, 0:07:44.960 --> 0:07:47.560 like they weren't subject to just wait until we got back. 0:07:47.640 --> 0:07:49.960 Like they were in a bus on and going through 0:07:50.000 --> 0:07:52.320 the parade as well. So that was pretty dog on dope. 0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:52.640 Uh. 0:07:53.040 --> 0:07:54.960 The wife was pregnant at the time, so that was 0:07:55.040 --> 0:07:58.720 kind of crazy. Wow. But you know, going through that 0:07:58.800 --> 0:08:01.040 with your teammates and be in on there and seeing 0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:04.200 all the literally millions of people, not thousands, it was 0:08:04.240 --> 0:08:06.960 millions of people on the streets. And for me, like 0:08:07.040 --> 0:08:09.240 the thing that always plays in my head is looking 0:08:09.360 --> 0:08:12.840 up and those those you know, freaking high tower buildings 0:08:12.880 --> 0:08:15.120 down there in New York and looking up and just 0:08:15.160 --> 0:08:18.320 seeing freaking paper people just literally just throwing paper. I 0:08:18.320 --> 0:08:21.240 wouldn't even confetti, it's just people just copy people just crap. 0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:23.000 Cracking their window open because you know, it only goes 0:08:23.040 --> 0:08:25.119 open so far. They're just like chucking pieces of paper 0:08:25.160 --> 0:08:27.760 down as far up as you can see, and you 0:08:27.840 --> 0:08:29.680 just look up and it's just like pouring down. It's 0:08:29.680 --> 0:08:31.760 freaking amazing. I think I have like on my old 0:08:31.800 --> 0:08:34.880 hard drive just in my safe somewhere, but it was 0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:35.600 it was dope, man. 0:08:35.840 --> 0:08:37.400 So y'all are in Manhattan, not New Jersey. 0:08:38.360 --> 0:08:42.720 No, so we're going down the Jersey Shore. 0:08:43.200 --> 0:08:46.560 We did the downtown, but then we once we finished 0:08:46.559 --> 0:08:48.559 the parade downtown, we got we all did the whole 0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:50.320 little presentation the Key to the City, so like I 0:08:50.360 --> 0:08:52.040 have the Key to the city and in my safe 0:08:52.040 --> 0:08:54.240 all that jazz. But then we bust back to the 0:08:54.280 --> 0:08:57.160 stadium and apparently the day before they had opened up 0:08:57.200 --> 0:08:59.080 the stadium and people are not open it up, but 0:08:59.120 --> 0:09:00.520 you know, a lot of people to start lining up. 0:09:00.600 --> 0:09:02.840 So when we got back to the stadium, we walked 0:09:02.880 --> 0:09:05.360 in like literally walked in like it was a game, right, 0:09:05.520 --> 0:09:07.760 smoke everything like that. We're walking out the tunnel in 0:09:07.800 --> 0:09:10.680 the stadium is flooded with people. I mean it is 0:09:10.880 --> 0:09:14.080 packed and Naughty by Nature's up there performing and they 0:09:14.080 --> 0:09:17.320 got the leather jackets on. Oh. It was freaking dope. 0:09:17.679 --> 0:09:19.679 It was freaking dope. It was so you want to 0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:22.240 talk about surreal, that was freaking surreal. You literally walk 0:09:22.280 --> 0:09:24.040 out with the smoke and you can hear the music 0:09:24.040 --> 0:09:25.400 playing and you you walk out of it and you 0:09:25.400 --> 0:09:26.480 come out of it and you just see nothing. But 0:09:26.520 --> 0:09:31.199 people just go, wow, chance, Yeah. 0:09:32.080 --> 0:09:34.120 I can't believe that just went out over our. 0:09:36.040 --> 0:09:38.680 I would love for Dallas to experience that in my 0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:41.640 in my lifetime, that would be That'd be awesome. 0:09:41.760 --> 0:09:42.880 Same here, same here. 0:09:43.240 --> 0:09:45.040 That's the thing is I mean, I've I grew up 0:09:45.080 --> 0:09:47.680 a Rangers fan, but I've also never seen a Cowboys 0:09:47.679 --> 0:09:48.080 win either. 0:09:48.320 --> 0:09:51.040 I've never seen a Cowboys win a Super Bowl. That's why. 0:09:51.120 --> 0:09:53.880 And I think we've had this conversation previously whenever the 0:09:53.920 --> 0:09:57.239 frustrations of things come up along the way I wanted. 0:09:57.040 --> 0:10:00.280 To happen so bad. It's the same yearning that I 0:10:00.400 --> 0:10:00.960 had for this. 0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:04.200 But even now, since I work inside the building and 0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:06.440 i know these guys personally and I've been around this 0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:07.120 for a long. 0:10:06.960 --> 0:10:09.520 Time, maybe even more so than the yearning that I 0:10:09.559 --> 0:10:10.319 had for the Rangers. 0:10:10.320 --> 0:10:13.320 The Rangers they, like I said, it's more of a 0:10:13.360 --> 0:10:15.600 surprise than it was an expected thing. 0:10:15.880 --> 0:10:17.679 This Cowboys team has been really good. 0:10:18.240 --> 0:10:20.720 And I know a lot of people might dissect what 0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:22.480 I just said and said they've been really good and 0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:24.679 oh they haven't made it this far, that far or 0:10:24.679 --> 0:10:25.400 wherever it's been. 0:10:25.720 --> 0:10:29.000 Their roster has been good enough to make a run. 0:10:29.040 --> 0:10:31.840 They just haven't done it yet, and they may not 0:10:31.960 --> 0:10:32.280 do it. 0:10:32.679 --> 0:10:35.040 They might do it, who knows, But if that moment 0:10:35.120 --> 0:10:37.120 comes then all of a sudden, I think it would 0:10:37.200 --> 0:10:39.959 be one of the greatest sports moments in this city's history. 0:10:40.000 --> 0:10:40.439 I'll tell you this. 0:10:40.480 --> 0:10:41.840 I looked up last night and this kind of to 0:10:41.880 --> 0:10:43.319 your point, John, When you look at the end of 0:10:43.360 --> 0:10:45.160 the regular season for the Rangers and just kind of 0:10:45.200 --> 0:10:46.080 where they were. 0:10:46.640 --> 0:10:48.400 And then they end up winning the whole thing. 0:10:48.559 --> 0:10:50.080 You know, you kind of look at the Cowboys and 0:10:50.080 --> 0:10:52.320 you're like, Okay, they've had some bumps and bruises along 0:10:52.320 --> 0:10:54.920 this regular season so far, but really good opportunity to 0:10:54.920 --> 0:10:57.000 go into Philadelphia this weekend and come out with a win. 0:10:57.320 --> 0:10:59.040 There's a lot of confidence on the other side, not 0:10:59.080 --> 0:11:02.120 only with the championship celebrations that are happening here after 0:11:02.160 --> 0:11:04.200 a regular season that was I would say it's very 0:11:04.200 --> 0:11:06.280 similar to what the Cowboys have experienced so far. Yeah, 0:11:06.440 --> 0:11:08.360 some really bad stretches that make you look like the 0:11:08.360 --> 0:11:09.679 worst team in baseball. 0:11:09.360 --> 0:11:12.240 That great stretches, exact goals. 0:11:11.960 --> 0:11:13.920 In certain parts of the team that you need to 0:11:13.920 --> 0:11:15.520 fill for the Cowboys. 0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:18.120 Like the bullpen, red zone exactly, I mean, bottom of 0:11:18.120 --> 0:11:18.560 the order. 0:11:19.559 --> 0:11:20.080 Yeah, it does. 0:11:20.160 --> 0:11:23.199 So, you know, maybe playoff time, these these guys are 0:11:23.520 --> 0:11:25.160 ready to go on the road and win four games. 0:11:25.160 --> 0:11:28.160 Maybe who's gonna be the fours for them? 0:11:28.360 --> 0:11:32.600 Oh, now that would be interesting. 0:11:32.640 --> 0:11:33.000 I think. 0:11:35.880 --> 0:11:38.440 That would be has to be somebody that, like you, 0:11:38.679 --> 0:11:41.199 I don't know, Yeah, somebody can't even I can't even 0:11:41.200 --> 0:11:44.960 think of a comath hank nasty. 0:11:45.160 --> 0:11:48.439 Yeah, that thing was. I don't even know how you 0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:48.960 hit that. 0:11:49.080 --> 0:11:51.200 It'd be like Jonathan Hankins if he got like three 0:11:51.200 --> 0:11:53.120 forced fumbles in the playoffs or something like that and 0:11:53.160 --> 0:11:54.200 like a pick six somehow. 0:11:54.320 --> 0:11:57.800 Yeah, like the decent players been around for a little bit, but. 0:11:57.760 --> 0:12:00.000 Not like a game changer and then he comes in. 0:12:00.440 --> 0:12:02.400 Or the Gallary like back to back of one hundred 0:12:02.480 --> 0:12:02.959 yard games. 0:12:03.320 --> 0:12:07.400 The Evan Carter comp is definitely would be Mazzie Smith. Yeah, 0:12:07.400 --> 0:12:09.280 where like the second half of the season, he just 0:12:09.320 --> 0:12:12.200 really takes his game to another level, fills in in 0:12:12.240 --> 0:12:14.400 a spot that they really need help in it at 0:12:14.440 --> 0:12:16.760 defensive tackle, that would be I would think that would 0:12:16.800 --> 0:12:17.400 be the closest. 0:12:17.760 --> 0:12:20.280 I guess defensive tackles are the only comparisons we have 0:12:20.559 --> 0:12:21.000 to the tech. 0:12:21.040 --> 0:12:22.640 We just want them to be hero so bad. 0:12:24.640 --> 0:12:26.000 Let's hit some news and notes. 0:12:26.679 --> 0:12:29.160 We're still running deep into the first segment, but news 0:12:29.160 --> 0:12:32.600 and notes. Outside of the Rangers being world champions, the 0:12:32.640 --> 0:12:34.360 Cowboys were back on the practice field yesterday. 0:12:34.440 --> 0:12:36.600 Yeah, they were, and it was the coldest practice that 0:12:36.600 --> 0:12:39.000 they've had so far in the twenty twenty three season. 0:12:39.800 --> 0:12:41.040 And practice report. 0:12:41.400 --> 0:12:43.480 You've got Tyrone Smith who did not practice as he's 0:12:43.520 --> 0:12:45.839 continuing to nurse his neck injury. And again I think 0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:47.800 we mentioned yesterday about how Jerry Jones has a little 0:12:47.800 --> 0:12:49.680 bit of confidence. They're still going into this week, but 0:12:49.800 --> 0:12:52.600 you get confidence last week, So still something to monitor 0:12:52.640 --> 0:12:54.960 as the week it's closer. J Ron Curse did not 0:12:55.000 --> 0:12:56.840 practice with a tow injury. That was something new that 0:12:56.880 --> 0:12:59.520 popped up on the injury report. And then Michael Gallop 0:12:59.559 --> 0:13:02.160 battling in illness, did not practice. And then if you 0:13:02.200 --> 0:13:05.360 guys recall Chumydoga going down in the I believe it 0:13:05.400 --> 0:13:07.280 was late in the third quarter, early in the fourth quarter, 0:13:07.840 --> 0:13:10.360 Chummidoga going down what looked like a scary injury initially 0:13:10.720 --> 0:13:13.280 just an ankle a low sprain, and he was limited yesterday. 0:13:13.320 --> 0:13:15.800 So good news on the Chuma Ydoga front in case 0:13:15.840 --> 0:13:18.640 Tyron Smith cannot go, but definitely both of those guys, 0:13:18.679 --> 0:13:19.800 I think that's going to be the highlight of the 0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:21.280 week and something you need to keep track of. 0:13:21.559 --> 0:13:23.839 Which one of those injuries concerns you the most? John, 0:13:24.040 --> 0:13:26.040 based off of it being on the injury report, does 0:13:26.080 --> 0:13:28.440 it start with Tyron or is it one of the others, 0:13:28.480 --> 0:13:30.720 like a jay Ron Curse another starter out. 0:13:31.160 --> 0:13:34.080 Well, with Tyron it's every week that's a factor. So 0:13:34.160 --> 0:13:36.800 I guess, yeah, that would be number one because of 0:13:37.000 --> 0:13:40.680 his importance. But yeah, jay Ron Curse didn't really expect 0:13:40.720 --> 0:13:41.680 him to be on there, so that was. 0:13:41.679 --> 0:13:43.120 Kind of interesting to see what he does today. 0:13:43.120 --> 0:13:45.320 That would be the one that when I got the email, 0:13:45.360 --> 0:13:46.560 that jumped out to me the most. 0:13:46.920 --> 0:13:49.920 Yeah, yeah, I would say, curse. Big toes don't really 0:13:49.960 --> 0:13:52.440 just go away. So if he is experiencing something with 0:13:52.480 --> 0:13:54.600 his big toe that is concerning enough to keep him 0:13:54.600 --> 0:13:56.640 out of practice and it's probably going to be bothering 0:13:56.720 --> 0:13:58.920 him even on game day whether he plays or not. 0:14:00.080 --> 0:14:03.000 I think the number one thing, it's got to be 0:14:03.040 --> 0:14:07.560 Tyrant Chumadoga being back and limited makes me feel better. 0:14:07.880 --> 0:14:09.880 I still want to see what awesome Richards can do 0:14:10.559 --> 0:14:13.360 up with the ones up with the starting offensive line, 0:14:13.360 --> 0:14:17.360 and there was lots of encouragement from him out of camp. 0:14:17.440 --> 0:14:21.200 There were lots of high praise for him out of camp, 0:14:21.240 --> 0:14:23.320 and he never really got a chance to run with 0:14:23.360 --> 0:14:25.240 the ones. It was mostly the twos and threes that 0:14:25.240 --> 0:14:28.160 he would rotate in with. So I'd like to see 0:14:28.160 --> 0:14:30.200 a little bit more awesome Richards. Maybe we'll get to 0:14:30.240 --> 0:14:34.440 see that through practice media won't, but from just a 0:14:34.480 --> 0:14:37.520 general standpoint, I'll see if we can talk to him 0:14:37.800 --> 0:14:39.680 today too, see if he can maybe. 0:14:39.560 --> 0:14:42.160 Find his way into that left tackle spot and just 0:14:42.200 --> 0:14:44.480 kind of fill in should Chuma Adoga not be able 0:14:44.520 --> 0:14:44.720 to go. 0:14:45.000 --> 0:14:45.720 Yeah, absolutely. 0:14:45.760 --> 0:14:48.160 And also you're talking about Austin Richards correctly, right, Yes, Yeah, 0:14:48.160 --> 0:14:49.840 Austin Richards. I've been able to chop it up with 0:14:49.880 --> 0:14:51.400 him in the locker room a couple of times. He's 0:14:51.400 --> 0:14:52.960 a Philly native, so he's going to be going back 0:14:52.960 --> 0:14:56.040 to Philadelphia, hope, looking to get some family out there. 0:14:56.080 --> 0:14:57.680 So if he's able to touch the field, I know 0:14:57.760 --> 0:15:00.000 that'd be a big moment for him. Next news and note, 0:15:00.040 --> 0:15:01.880 Trayvon Diggs was in the locker room yesterday for the 0:15:01.880 --> 0:15:04.880 first time since he suffered his ACL tear last month. 0:15:05.080 --> 0:15:08.160 He also had surgery on that knee last week, and 0:15:08.240 --> 0:15:10.280 he was just able to talk. She talked for about 0:15:10.280 --> 0:15:11.880 six or seven minutes. It gave us some good stuff, 0:15:11.920 --> 0:15:14.560 just Howie's handling it physically, mentally, and he looks like 0:15:14.560 --> 0:15:15.320 he's in a good spot. 0:15:15.320 --> 0:15:15.600 He said. 0:15:15.640 --> 0:15:17.680 He's been able to pick up some new hobbies and 0:15:18.160 --> 0:15:20.000 he's been able to, you know, bond more with his son. 0:15:20.040 --> 0:15:21.600 He's been able to watch a lot of football. He's like, 0:15:21.640 --> 0:15:23.200 I feel like I haven't watched as much football since 0:15:23.200 --> 0:15:26.240 I've been in the league. The quote that really stood out. 0:15:26.280 --> 0:15:27.960 Everything happens for a reason. Just got to roll with 0:15:28.000 --> 0:15:30.000 the punches. It's all on God's plan. Just got to 0:15:30.000 --> 0:15:32.360 get healthy, come back stronger and faster. He said, I'm 0:15:32.360 --> 0:15:34.960 not worried about overcoming this injury. It's twenty twenty three. 0:15:35.000 --> 0:15:36.680 There's a lot of new technology that's going to help 0:15:36.720 --> 0:15:38.720 me get back. I'm not worried about it. Courtesy of 0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:40.680 our Jama showed it to my right on the tweet. 0:15:41.640 --> 0:15:43.520 But yeah, it looked like he was in good spirits. 0:15:43.520 --> 0:15:45.200 He also mentioned how Jordan Lewis was one of the 0:15:45.240 --> 0:15:47.240 first people he had reached out to whenever he had 0:15:47.240 --> 0:15:50.200 the injury or reached out to him vice versa. And 0:15:50.320 --> 0:15:52.800 you know Jordan Lewis, it took him thirteen months to 0:15:52.840 --> 0:15:55.400 get back on the field and get ready, and just 0:15:55.480 --> 0:15:57.600 that mental aspect. I think that's a big part of 0:15:57.600 --> 0:15:59.800 the injuries like this, So it looks like he's battling 0:15:59.800 --> 0:16:03.480
