Speaker 1: East Texas and North Louisiana. It's all kind of the same.
Speaker 1: It's it's yeah, it's just just the language in the
Speaker 1: accents change. Yeah. People are good. People are there, and
Speaker 1: there ain't nothing to do in either one of them.
Speaker 1: Dirts a different color, yeah, and there's yeah, except get
Speaker 1: in trouble. That's all there is to do. You gotta
Speaker 1: make your own fun. You're still doing that today. Speaking
Speaker 1: of making your own fun, We're gonna make some fun
Speaker 1: on this show because we sure as hell ain't making
Speaker 1: no fun. And free Agency. I'll tell you that this team, man,
Speaker 1: And I tell you what, I didn't even mean to
Speaker 1: do that. Let's go down the list of free agents.
Speaker 1: We lost some guys this weekend. I'm not real happy
Speaker 1: about actually about either one of them. Yeah, a little mad.
Speaker 1: Both of them were friends of the show. Let's go
Speaker 1: down the free So if you haven't gone to Dallas
Speaker 1: Cowboys dot Com, go there. There's a free agency tracker
Speaker 1: and it's pretty awesome. Eatman and Rob and brought Us
Speaker 1: and Hellman have done a great job keeping this thing updated.
Speaker 1: And they let even if a guy goes and visit somewhere,
Speaker 1: they put on this this free agency tracker, so you
Speaker 1: can go tell where all of our free agents or
Speaker 1: what their status is. So let's go down the list
Speaker 1: Byron Bell, Ben Wickery, Bryce Butler, Jonathan Cooper. There is
Speaker 1: no status change for any of those guys. There's the
Speaker 1: only one I would think of that group that would
Speaker 1: be have interest. Yeah. Anthony Hitchin signed with Kansas City
Speaker 1: on the fifteenth. David Irving one year restricted tender offer
Speaker 1: on the fourteenth. LP is expected to resign today maybe today, correct.
Speaker 1: DeMarcus Law that is our long snapper, our only at
Speaker 1: second two Canadians on the team. He is one of them.
Speaker 1: Tyron Crawford's the other one. H D. Law signed the
Speaker 1: franchise tag on the fifth. You got Joe Looney and
Speaker 1: Alfred Morris. No action there. Brian Price, thank god we
Speaker 1: resigned him to a two year deal on the twelfth.
Speaker 1: Might be give us a little depth there, maybe, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm not mad about it. Not man Um. And then
Speaker 1: three guys that we lost over the weekend. Kyle Wilbur
Speaker 1: signed with the Raiders yesterday or the seventeenth. When was
Speaker 1: the seventeenth today? Saturday? Saturday? Keith Smith signed with the
Speaker 1: Raiders on Friday in Orlando. Skendrick was released on Saturday.
Speaker 1: So the Raiders June one, he was released, but technically
Speaker 1: it will become affecting June after June first, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think he's a June one cut or whatever. So
Speaker 1: so lit's the dumb question, not that he would, but
Speaker 1: could he work out with the team now? Yeah, because
Speaker 1: they already they already cowboysn't done. What they needed to
Speaker 1: do is just that's when they're it'll be official night.
Speaker 1: They can't work out, but he probably can cut the deal.
Speaker 1: Currents go on the internet, don't get to check done.
Speaker 1: You'll figure it out. Kurt I think that's appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Want to tell you. Yeah, so obviously Hitchens is probably
Speaker 1: the biggest blow there. But Kurt, I know Nate, I
Speaker 1: have a feeling I know Nate's answer, but I'll throw
Speaker 1: this out there to you. Kurt. You know, Hitchens is
Speaker 1: obviously the biggest name. I think we're really gonna miss
Speaker 1: that guy at at linebacker Skandrick Smith and Wilbur. Wilbur
Speaker 1: and Smith are kind of fly under the radar type guy.
Speaker 1: Skendrick's more the bigger name guy. But which one of
Speaker 1: those guys you think they're gonna miss the most? Who
Speaker 1: will they missed the most? Yeah, well, at this point
Speaker 1: it might be Wilbur because he was a linebacker and
Speaker 1: he had some flexibility and he's a special teams guy.
Speaker 1: That's gotta be. I wasn't that why Keith Smith and
Speaker 1: him went to the Raiders because Bisaccia is out there,
Speaker 1: wouldn't it be? That's what I would guess, special teams guys.
Speaker 1: And yeah, I mean Smith is a good special teams
Speaker 1: guy too. I don't know, I'm not sure how much
Speaker 1: he signed for, but former linebacker here, that yeah, big guy,
Speaker 1: great guy in the room. He came on here. So
Speaker 1: did they put with wilber sign for Yeah, let me see.
Speaker 1: You know, they don't put it unless you know he's
Speaker 1: getting seven mill a year. They ain't giving up, neither
Speaker 1: one of them an' getting selling men. They won't get
Speaker 1: seven men together. Who do you who do you think
Speaker 1: they're gonna miss the most out of that group named
Speaker 1: Kyle wilber Man. Yeah. Yeah, two years ago I was
Speaker 1: telling Mick, you know, because they're like, we need to
Speaker 1: sign this now, we need to sign Kyle wilber because
Speaker 1: Kyle wilber can can cover a lot of ground. He
Speaker 1: can plays a little bit of deepest then in emergency situations,
Speaker 1: he can play all the linebacker spots in emergency situations.
Speaker 1: You know, he's a great special teams player. Uh. He
Speaker 1: does what's right, He practices right. He does everything the
Speaker 1: way that Jason him, you know, preach, you know, be
Speaker 1: the right type of guy, and he seems to be
Speaker 1: the right type of guy. I'm really under the radar
Speaker 1: guy too, right. And Keith Schmill virtue the same with him.
Speaker 1: But he's he's he's with a dying breed. It's called fullback. Right. So,
Speaker 1: so does that mean do you think they're gonna go
Speaker 1: away from a fullback this year, or they gonna go
Speaker 1: find somebody else letting him. You know, they probably find
Speaker 1: somebody else. But like I said, it's a dying breed man.
Speaker 1: You can get an h back, somebody a tight end,
Speaker 1: and you know, sometimes you can get a good tight end.
Speaker 1: Had to do that job to get up. And then
Speaker 1: they got a few hard nosed linebackers and get some
Speaker 1: wam blocks going. So you know, and Scandrick, you know,
Speaker 1: he did a great job, you know when he was
Speaker 1: here the last few years, having been kind to him,
Speaker 1: you know, and he hasn't been that guy we saw
Speaker 1: three or four years ago. So uh got some young
Speaker 1: guys that they feel is more than adequate, uh to replacement.
Speaker 1: And they got you know, Lewis is a slot guy.
Speaker 1: Woods is a slot guy. Now each about moving on
Speaker 1: Jones back to the outside. So here we go, yeah,
Speaker 1: here we go. And then we got remember we got
Speaker 1: the guy to Florida State, Marcus Marquess wife. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: don't know where he's at his development. So the door,
Speaker 1: the door is open, you know, the door is open.
Speaker 1: So I hate to see Orlando go. I mean, as
Speaker 1: far as you know, I think he when he kind
Speaker 1: of moved into the slot. I think he was a
Speaker 1: solid guy. But if you're if you're moving him out
Speaker 1: to make room for these young guys and let him play,
Speaker 1: let's go. You know the field, you know, you know,
Speaker 1: sometimes it's good the part, you know, and it was time,
Speaker 1: the part with Scandrid, because you know the word, the
Speaker 1: biggest word you have with dads, if they asked him
Speaker 1: for decrease is the biggest room, the biggest word you have,
Speaker 1: it's the locker room. Well, if they don't treat Scandrid
Speaker 1: how scandrids you should be treated, the biggest problem you
Speaker 1: probably have is in your locker room. Yeah, I don't
Speaker 1: think he was the right leader for those young guys. No,
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think they're He wanted to leave.
Speaker 1: Obviously he knew he wasn't gonna get playing time. I
Speaker 1: don't think the Cowboys were too upset the honor that Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, And I just gotta be honest. It's already
Speaker 1: to have a chip on your shoulder, and I came
Speaker 1: in the league with a kind of chip on my
Speaker 1: shoulder because I felt I was better than a lot
Speaker 1: of guys. I got opportunity to prove it, and I
Speaker 1: never forgot. But it was always football related, not towards
Speaker 1: other people. M you know, wasn't personal. Yeah, it wasn't
Speaker 1: over personal. And see it's good to have a chip
Speaker 1: on your shoulder, but no one, no one to let
Speaker 1: the chip go. Yeah, you know, at some point you
Speaker 1: got to realize, Okay, I can see it. Keep the hunger.
Speaker 1: But I am here, right, you know it's about full
Speaker 1: five six years. Hey, I'm here, you know. So what
Speaker 1: can you do for the for the room, not to
Speaker 1: make the room better? So have you you don't have
Speaker 1: to obviously don't say any names, but have you been
Speaker 1: part of a locker room where there's been one or
Speaker 1: two guys that were kind of a bad egg? And
Speaker 1: how did that affect the rest of the They went't
Speaker 1: there long? Yeah, that's coach They either want mister assume
Speaker 1: without either with coach Landry or coach Johnson. See you
Speaker 1: yeah you know that just won. No, sarahcut back. Then
Speaker 1: you became a bad egg. You was rotting on it.
Speaker 1: You're gonna be rotting by yourself. Yeah, yeah, how does
Speaker 1: that affect? How can a bad how can a bad
Speaker 1: attitude kind of affect? You can just take it, especially
Speaker 1: young guys, and if you wanted the better players, and man,
Speaker 1: forget them. Man, you know you're running a young player
Speaker 1: got trying to come up and be something. All you
Speaker 1: do is talk negative towards the organization, and everything you
Speaker 1: got to say is, man, why are we doing this
Speaker 1: dumb stuff? I mean, you know, now you got a
Speaker 1: whole season of that, right, and then your young players
Speaker 1: get a little bit better, you depending on them, and
Speaker 1: then man, like my boy Nate said, it ain't worth this,
Speaker 1: and then o man, just getting worse and worse until
Speaker 1: you got That happens with the Saints two years ago,
Speaker 1: to the gut, to the point where the head coach said,
Speaker 1: that's it. He just went to chopping heads off. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they started cleaning the house. Yeah, he just cleaning the house.
Speaker 1: Like okay, all right, you can do it better somewhere else.
Speaker 1: We're gonna show up again, you know, if we get
Speaker 1: a fifth round pick, buy you know, because I think
Speaker 1: they saw that a little here with Greg Hardy. He
Speaker 1: was a guy that boys locker room. He just wasn't
Speaker 1: not a not a good influence in them. Yeah, what
Speaker 1: it seemed like, so they got rid of him. It's quick. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's uh, it's kind of like real life. We talk
Speaker 1: about it all the time. Nate says it all the time.
Speaker 1: Football is a job, and it's like real life. If
Speaker 1: you you get a bad egg or you get someone
Speaker 1: that has a bad attitude. The older guys recognize it.
Speaker 1: People that have been around for a while, they recognize, Okay,
Speaker 1: don't listen to that mess. He's that's just a bad person.
Speaker 1: But the young guys buy into it and change your
Speaker 1: whole culture of your Yeah, your team and your organization.
Speaker 1: You know, definitely, man, definitely what you're writing down over there, Kurt,
Speaker 1: I found Keith Smith's signed for two years at four
Speaker 1: point two million UM. There hasn't been any Wilbur's contract
Speaker 1: hasn't been released yet. Wow, that's pretty nice. So good
Speaker 1: for Keith. You can get a lot of damn Chipotle
Speaker 1: four point two million dollars. They have Chipotle in California, Sule, Yeah,
Speaker 1: is he from up there? Is from the LA area?
Speaker 1: I think he's from the LA area. Yeah. I think
Speaker 1: it's good for him. He's a good guy. It is.
Speaker 1: He is a good guy. His uh, his mom actually
Speaker 1: reached out to me on Instagram, shot me a DM
Speaker 1: and was just thinking thanking us for being good to Keith.
Speaker 1: He was. He was a social media dude. He was
Speaker 1: one of our guys. I have to see those guys
Speaker 1: go and then Kyle's gone. He was. He was one
Speaker 1: of my first guys I ever interacted with whenever I
Speaker 1: started oncial media for the cow Amazing Go ahead on Douglas.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry now, I was thinking of Shannon's guys. Bryce.
Speaker 1: Bryce hadn't gone yet. Where you think, Yeah, Okay, your
Speaker 1: dad's here, he's for sure. You know, I tell people,
Speaker 1: we tell them to see like I'm always telling somebody something. Uh.
Speaker 1: You you you think you don't have a team. Oh man,
Speaker 1: we're missing out core guys. You think you don't have
Speaker 1: a team, and see you don't. You don't have a
Speaker 1: team because you glue guys like Smith and Wilbur. You
Speaker 1: you you you let too many of them go m
Speaker 1: especially when you got a bunch of young guys around them. Yes,
Speaker 1: you let too many of them go out a role player,
Speaker 1: get ugly man, Yeah, and get ugly ask Lebron yeah, James,
Speaker 1: speaking of talking about dead So there were some rumors
Speaker 1: last week. I guess after we had our show that
Speaker 1: the Cowboys had a little bit of interest in Sammy
Speaker 1: Watkins and he signed for what about much did he
Speaker 1: wind up signing for? Yeah, he signed for like current
Speaker 1: des money. Right, So if they're if they were in
Speaker 1: the if they were in the talks for him, does
Speaker 1: that mean that they Daz being let go was a possibility?
Speaker 1: And three year, forty eight million, three for forty eight
Speaker 1: that was sixteen right, yea, yeah, just sixteen, So obviously
Speaker 1: you wouldn't be able to keep signed him to a
Speaker 1: deal kind of like that. And supposedly the rumors were
Speaker 1: that the Cowboys were in the neighborhood of what he
Speaker 1: wounded up signing for, So that means if they would
Speaker 1: have signed him, you obviously don't have the money to
Speaker 1: keep Daz. But with them not signing him, does that
Speaker 1: look good for Dez staying here? Because Dees is still
Speaker 1: your number one? You don't have a number one without him,
Speaker 1: right right? And there's not really a number one guy
Speaker 1: out on the market. And Nate's covering his eyes because
Speaker 1: that were number one, uh as Shan Jeffers for the
Speaker 1: Eagles where there it was the number one receiver for
Speaker 1: the Eagles last year, right had equivalent numbers death. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So I mean we keep hotting this number one. What
Speaker 1: to me, a number one is Antonio Brown, yea, a
Speaker 1: number one is Julio Jones, you know, and everybody else
Speaker 1: in the league is number twos and that's just it.
Speaker 1: They just guys, you know. It ain't no excuse mcgreen
Speaker 1: for Cincinnati, you know, but everybody else is just he's
Speaker 1: just guys. Man Sammie Watkins if he could ever stay healthy,
Speaker 1: until he stay healthy, impression. And Milwaukins is a guy exactly,
Speaker 1: Andre Hopkins for the Texans. That's a nice dude. So
Speaker 1: it ain't be four or five guys that are what
Speaker 1: we number one. The rest of them are just hot
Speaker 1: dollars twols. That's all they are getting overpaid. Back up
Speaker 1: the Brinks truck, baby, because we're getting We're getting all
Speaker 1: we can. That's all that is. But if you're a
Speaker 1: guy who can't stay healthy, is coming to the Cowboys
Speaker 1: ever the fix to that, That's what I'm saying. We'll
Speaker 1: have signed Sammon and and he coming in and miss
Speaker 1: for it. This is this is one thing I think
Speaker 1: the Cowboys cannot do. Drafts on one has a history
Speaker 1: of being injured, and that on me. If they draft
Speaker 1: somebody had four years or health that something, that's something bad.
Speaker 1: They're gonna happen to this kid. But that's not You
Speaker 1: get enough guys that's injured. Four games here, four games that,
Speaker 1: four and all of a sudden, Oh we're getting this
Speaker 1: guy back, but we lost this guy. Oh we're getting
Speaker 1: this guy back. We lost this guy. You don't want
Speaker 1: to go through that. How are you gonna play as
Speaker 1: a team? Right, that's what we do. So it is
Speaker 1: do you think this is gonna affect Dez? The fact
Speaker 1: that the Cowboys maybe did search Tru's replacement, Well, if
Speaker 1: they don't ask for no money back and nothing like that,
Speaker 1: now it's not gonna affect Dad. But everything once you
Speaker 1: let something like that leak out, everything becomes on. It's
Speaker 1: up for play now, you know. Well, yeah, yeah, we
Speaker 1: was ready to pay salmon. You ain't gonna pay but
Speaker 1: one guy that type of money. So, uh, the best
Speaker 1: they could have did was off a dead six and
Speaker 1: six meal, five meals, seven meal, whatever, nine and whatever.
Speaker 1: That's the best they could offer him and the worst
Speaker 1: it was gonna be. But hey bye. So it worries
Speaker 1: me a little bit just because he's already said he
Speaker 1: let distractions get him last year and his production as
Speaker 1: obviously wasn't what it was and this can't help. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't think, yeah, well, you know you've been in the
Speaker 1: free agent conversation before, you've lived through free agency. Does it?
Speaker 1: Is it a big deal? Whenever all the talks going
Speaker 1: on on and the you know this team doesn't want me,
Speaker 1: this team does. But once the season starts, is it
Speaker 1: just back to football or does that anything that stay
Speaker 1: with you depends on It depends on what how you
Speaker 1: dedicated to the If you dedicated to the game, that's
Speaker 1: what it goes right back to. If you just if
Speaker 1: you dedicated to the game and saying, okay, they wanted
Speaker 1: to do this to me, Okay, I know him much better,
Speaker 1: I know I can do this, and you focus on that.
Speaker 1: But if you're a grudge guy, you know, because people
Speaker 1: are human, if you're a grudge guy or guy that
Speaker 1: is looking across the fence, it can affect your brother.
Speaker 1: I've seen I've seen players you know you know it
Speaker 1: ain't bother me. Well, I'm gonna play eight games. He
Speaker 1: ain't caught fifteen pass. You would hope that whatever grudge
Speaker 1: he had to the team effect that his loyalty to
Speaker 1: his teammates, would you know, keep up that production. But
Speaker 1: ain't no lordy to no teammates when you feel you've
Speaker 1: been wrong unless those teammates have came you know, like,
Speaker 1: uh who they released? I like what happened to Jordan
Speaker 1: Nelson and you and the Riders, Like, wow, this guy
Speaker 1: was everything y'all look for a Green Bay packing and
Speaker 1: we just let him go. Best of luck to you. Okay?
Speaker 1: That with a player, whether your teams step up for you,
Speaker 1: then then then it's easy to come back. And but
Speaker 1: if your team don't step up for you, like and
Speaker 1: I like Skendrick. I mean maybe y'all have seen some
Speaker 1: tweets of emails, but hey, man, Skendrick show, sorry you're
Speaker 1: gonna I haven't seen him. Yeah, so I think he's
Speaker 1: gonna buy a billboard like DeMarco Murray did. Thinking the
Speaker 1: Cowboys for play here for him get tweet out of
Speaker 1: thank to you, But I thought the billboard will be Yeah,
Speaker 1: how long was Skendrick here? Sick? Nine nine time? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Like the writers local writers said, you know, fifty fifth
Speaker 1: round pick nine years, that's goods. At some point you
Speaker 1: can't walk around with a chip on your shoulder, you know,
Speaker 1: and when media types see me as an ex player,
Speaker 1: I can either take you out, I can leave you
Speaker 1: you know. Uh, you know I was raised like, hey, Kurt,
Speaker 1: if I come in every day, hey speak to you, Kurt.
Speaker 1: How you doing? And that's about the eighth day you
Speaker 1: look at me, I speedy, you look at me and
Speaker 1: just kind of keep doing what you're doing. That's about
Speaker 1: the age day I ain't speaking no more. I'm done.
Speaker 1: I can take it to leave it. Well, a lot
Speaker 1: of people can't, so uh and that and most football
Speaker 1: players can because Tony Tony told was my roommate for
Speaker 1: nine years. You know, when I'm like, we won it,
Speaker 1: which one I'm gonna not be here next year because
Speaker 1: it at a point, but you gotta so, you know,
Speaker 1: you build relationships. Moment was true someonem not. Yeah, we're
Speaker 1: gonna take a quick break when we come back. Since
Speaker 1: we're talking about free agency, Kurt wanted to pick your
Speaker 1: brain a little bit. One of the biggest free agent signings,
Speaker 1: maybe the biggest in Cowboys history. When you were you
Speaker 1: were around then you know what the Cowboys is he
Speaker 1: coming to? You know? Question? Is this breaking news? Going
Speaker 1: to the highest, does not care. He's making that money.

Speaker 1: don't know what the hell I had yet, want to know,
Speaker 1: Probably didn't by the end of the night. Whatever it
Speaker 1: was on that road, huh, I don't know. I remember. Anyway,
Speaker 1: back to free Agency. So you were around Nate when
Speaker 1: when the circus came to town. Two of them, two
Speaker 1: of them. Tell me about those. The first one was
Speaker 1: Charles Haley. Okay, oh yes, yeah, that was a big sign.
Speaker 1: And we got him for a little or nothing. Okay,
Speaker 1: you traded, Yeah, I mean you you guys, you hated
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers back then. You you were battling
Speaker 1: him and you him being a defensive line. You may
Speaker 1: have faced him on a regular basis. And what was
Speaker 1: that like? Now you're bringing the enemy into your room.
Speaker 1: Does it matter at all? Well, that enemy was hated
Speaker 1: by his own team. That made him a friend of us.
Speaker 1: Now you had a mob here, come into our families.
Speaker 1: They y'all welcome to me. We're welcome to man. Man.
Speaker 1: It was like, uh, what was it? Good? Nah? Christian
Speaker 1: slave was in his out think of the movie. But anyway,
Speaker 1: but it was recruiting clips and slid on both sides.
Speaker 1: You know, he finally wiped out both of them, Charles.
Speaker 1: But anyway, when Charles came, that's when we won our
Speaker 1: first Super Bowl, I first back to back super Bowl. So, uh,
Speaker 1: that was big because forty nine Ers coach Siefer was
Speaker 1: looking to get rid of them because Charles was destroying
Speaker 1: the locker room. You know he was. And that's what
Speaker 1: I tried to tip it. When you can play and
Speaker 1: you know you can play and you say whatever you want,
Speaker 1: you know, so they felt he was destroying the locker room,
Speaker 1: which Steve Young didn't agree with, you know, like, you mean,
Speaker 1: tell me we get rid of this dude. He run
Speaker 1: right over there and I'm looking up from my back
Speaker 1: just too was standing over me. So but anyway, that
Speaker 1: was our first great sign and then our next great
Speaker 1: signing was was prime Deon Signers. He signed like mid
Speaker 1: season or something, didn't No, No, the beginning of the year.
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, I know he played baseball. He was
Speaker 1: going to play a whole season. Yeah, so he was
Speaker 1: a full time baseball player and the part time football player.
Speaker 1: So but I'm telling you I saw done in Atlanta. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know, that's where he started at in Atlanta and
Speaker 1: then he went to was it the forty nine ers,
Speaker 1: then he became free again, and miss Jones won't let
Speaker 1: him get away. I mean he he Like I said,
Speaker 1: it's generation of players. And I was trying to get
Speaker 1: you to look up the the cornerbacks for for the
Speaker 1: for the Raiders when they won, uh the Super Bowl
Speaker 1: before in the early eighties. Yeah, early eighties, and they
Speaker 1: had two corners that had Lester and I think of
Speaker 1: doing that. I want to say, Clayborne sy let's say heyes, yeah,
Speaker 1: yah yeah, let's hey yeah and I and I and
Speaker 1: back then they big corners and I'm like, man, you
Speaker 1: had never seen nothing like that. I told people, I say,
Speaker 1: these two corners, you you won't never see this again.
Speaker 1: And then until I saw Dan wats nah nah jo.
Speaker 1: I saw Dion, and Dion was this thing. This thing
Speaker 1: was real. Mike Haynes, Mike Haynes, that's him, brother, that's him.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, Mike Haynes came from the Patriots. They
Speaker 1: got him from the Patriots, and you literally teams were
Speaker 1: no Dan was over there. I remember, and I told
Speaker 1: y'all this. We played against the car the Cargners when
Speaker 1: they was at the up when they used to played
Speaker 1: the old college stadium we played against. Dan threw his
Speaker 1: back out that night and what he had sometime he
Speaker 1: heard his back and then he really got bad during
Speaker 1: the game. You know, Deon stood out there over three
Speaker 1: quarters of that game with a bad back, and he
Speaker 1: thought this way, oh man, yeah, he took away half
Speaker 1: the field. I'm serious. Then the Cowboys would blitz from
Speaker 1: the other side. Like if so, if you're the quarterback,
Speaker 1: Deon's to your left and the Cowboys would blitz from
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks right. It was a pretty good combination. What
Speaker 1: was he like? The like the press and the publicity
Speaker 1: and just his whole I think he had a certain
Speaker 1: day he talked. H if you knew you, he'll talk
Speaker 1: to you. Dion. Dion was unique man. Uh like most
Speaker 1: first round pixie Uh. Unbelievable confidence. People want to call
Speaker 1: the arrogance whatever. Uh He's still that same guy. I
Speaker 1: mean now when we are hanging out in Canton. You know,
Speaker 1: you know, just amazing things he does. You know that
Speaker 1: just just just blows people. Awa. Wait, if you let
Speaker 1: him be him. You know a lot a lot of
Speaker 1: people look at athletes and and they let the media
Speaker 1: dictate who a person is. But Dean is the salt
Speaker 1: of the earth and so and people said, well are
Speaker 1: you saying that because he Yeah, I am his friend
Speaker 1: and I was. I was his friend when we used
Speaker 1: to go over to Kimball every Tuesday when he first
Speaker 1: got here. Nobody never knew about it to mentor to kids.
Speaker 1: I'm the same guy. Once he stopped doing that, he
Speaker 1: went to the Old Folks Home on every Tuesday and
Speaker 1: helped elderly people. Yeah, I'm that same guy. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: his friend. And I stopped going when he stopped going
Speaker 1: to the to the Senior Citizen Home. You know all
Speaker 1: that I can because you know, you see these older people,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I felt better helping to kids than
Speaker 1: trying to mess with these older people, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. So, and this is the same guy that
Speaker 1: just just this past week, this lady called Big Mama
Speaker 1: lives in Canton, ninety three years old and November should
Speaker 1: be ninety three years old. How Dan, I'm coming to
Speaker 1: your house two days later? Men and him pulling up
Speaker 1: to a house, you know, wow, and it just it
Speaker 1: blows you away. It blowed But you're talking about the
Speaker 1: biggest sign and created Prime is real. I mean, he
Speaker 1: it didn't matter who he played against, whether it was
Speaker 1: one of the greatest receivers ever Jared Rice, Uh, it
Speaker 1: didn't matter what it was sterling sharp and he was
Speaker 1: cold blood. He should be in Hall of Fame. He
Speaker 1: was it. But anyway, that's not my decision. But he
Speaker 1: covered him and he just multitude. What was what was
Speaker 1: the dynamic like because I've heard Michael Irman talk tells
Speaker 1: stories about when Dion would cover him and they would
Speaker 1: just go at it and hit each other in the
Speaker 1: head and be like, I'm or the game starter. They
Speaker 1: just mailed the check to the league because they knew
Speaker 1: they were getting fine. But once you you have that,
Speaker 1: you go to you go to war like that against
Speaker 1: somebody and then they come to your side. Is it?
Speaker 1: There's a mutual I've been playing against against Michael Irvin
Speaker 1: since college. You gotta say they went against each other
Speaker 1: Florida State and Mia versus Miami, so they've been getting
Speaker 1: at each other for a lot of years. But for
Speaker 1: everything Mike took, Gigant accepts he's a Hall of Famer.
Speaker 1: Prime steps were bigger Prime when you looked out there,
Speaker 1: when you look when he this is how I'll give
Speaker 1: it to you. When Jared Rice stepped out there and
Speaker 1: Dion stepped out there, they were still gonna throw the
Speaker 1: ball to Jared Rice. And there's certain routes they was
Speaker 1: gonna throw to Jared, you know, because of the respect
Speaker 1: the den. And then when he didn't have a full
Speaker 1: route treat when Dion was on it. But when Mike
Speaker 1: stepped out there and Dion stepped out there, we were
Speaker 1: still alive not to throw the ball over there. So
Speaker 1: that told you who they who they thought the cold
Speaker 1: the most cold blooded is one Ward. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. You know, I remember one time we played
Speaker 1: Atlanta and uh, I had never seen Mike just come
Speaker 1: out the field. At the end of the game. We lost, right,
Speaker 1: I understand you don't want to throw you know. And
Speaker 1: he wasn't directing in that Troy, and he wasn't really
Speaker 1: directed into that coach turner North Turner, but he was
Speaker 1: directed at him in an indirect way. And by you
Speaker 1: shut up, you mother, we lost the game and they
Speaker 1: ain't get one back that he caught one pair of
Speaker 1: six yards. Yeah boy, he was going, Oh, I'm like
Speaker 1: you all right, play maker there was a playoff game
Speaker 1: against Atlanta. That was like a I think it was
Speaker 1: a playoff game. Well, now, we didn't win this one
Speaker 1: brother regular season game where we went that Lana. I know,
Speaker 1: maybe it wasn't. Maybe it was a late season game
Speaker 1: in the early nineties and it was a shootout at
Speaker 1: Texas Stadium. Yeah, you guys didn't win, but we won that.
Speaker 1: Earth had quite a day. Yeah, but he won't on
Speaker 1: quite a Prime. You know. Uh, I'm gonna tell you something.
Speaker 1: Mike got great respect for Den, and Den got great
Speaker 1: respect for Mike, but Mike, but Dan had the advantage
Speaker 1: because he had he was in the quarterback head. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: So no matter how great route Mike ran, he had
Speaker 1: to be running eight yards wide open because Prime had
Speaker 1: that type of ability. I'm telling you you haven't seen
Speaker 1: a role runner. How role runner can be running across
Speaker 1: the street in front of your car and he's just running.
Speaker 1: You know, he's just running. But then if you figure
Speaker 1: you're gonna get him, he a flapp his wings extra
Speaker 1: gear like you just take off. That was DNA extra. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he just had the extra gear and uh, he's just
Speaker 1: he's set back on five six yards. You know. Let
Speaker 1: you complete that little out. Then all say you think
Speaker 1: you're gonna get him on an out and up he
Speaker 1: calculating like, okay, yeah, youvenn got me on. Now okay
Speaker 1: I jumped with drop this out. You feel good? Do
Speaker 1: you get jumped out the next time? Back to the
Speaker 1: ball around and we know the out an upcoming. So
Speaker 1: now he's just in between. All of a sudden, you
Speaker 1: go up. He Terry opened them hips. He go up.
Speaker 1: If the ball, if the ball was out further, if
Speaker 1: the ball was out ahead of the receiver, they say,
Speaker 1: put it up the end of the receiving run up. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: you had to run that thing on the line. Get
Speaker 1: to throw that thing on the line. He's going out
Speaker 1: right because if you throw that ball up there and
Speaker 1: Prime had ability. He returned punts, so you know he
Speaker 1: could judge the ball right, yeah, and the punt returns
Speaker 1: or the icing on the cake. In the nineties, I
Speaker 1: was always in the production room for the Cowboys Radio Network,
Speaker 1: and we had you know, the game was in FM stereo,
Speaker 1: and so I could really hear the crowd and it
Speaker 1: was the most distinctive thing. On fourth down when Dion
Speaker 1: went out there, you'd hear the Texas Stadium crowd go silent,
Speaker 1: and it was just you know. I would be in
Speaker 1: there every game, but it was only when Dion went
Speaker 1: out there that you would all of a suddenly hear
Speaker 1: the hush as they were waiting to see what he
Speaker 1: might do, because he could do such crazy sand lot things.
Speaker 1: And think about it, man, he won't gonna hold that
Speaker 1: ball safely. That was for players and court that was
Speaker 1: the most scared puckers. He would catch it and hold
Speaker 1: it like a local bread. I remember were playing New
Speaker 1: York one night, man, and we threw him a pass
Speaker 1: on one side of the filth then stopped. I'm like
Speaker 1: they got him. He just took off background on the
Speaker 1: other side. I'm like, he ain't that fast. He didn't
Speaker 1: get this first down. Next thing, I know the referee.
Speaker 1: He is that fast. I'm telling you he And then
Speaker 1: when he came back against the Ravens and they played
Speaker 1: him in the slot a lot, he even mastered that
Speaker 1: how to play that slot and he didn't. Man, I'm
Speaker 1: talking about speed. I'm and and uh. He one type
Speaker 1: of guy that talked about it a lot. But he
Speaker 1: had just tell you, man, dude came run and for
Speaker 1: a few times he said. And I'm like, come on, Prian,
Speaker 1: you said that all the time. You said that all
Speaker 1: the time. Man, Man, that dude. Don't want to raise
Speaker 1: me as yo, man, Prian, won't you You know I'm
Speaker 1: I'm I'm giving Prian, won't you I already I'm bragging
Speaker 1: on you. You the big dog. Come show a big
Speaker 1: new you can do your thing. Come on, man, Nah, man,
Speaker 1: I don't feel like they knew don't don't cast knew speed?
Speaker 1: No speed? Yeah, and uh, you know when Jerry, when
Speaker 1: Jerry signed Joey Galloway, he said that he had spoken
Speaker 1: with Dion, and Dion said that Galloway was the only
Speaker 1: guy in the league that could run with him. Yeah. Man,
Speaker 1: I'm telling you. He then he just look at the dude.
Speaker 1: I mean, even when I'm watching the combine and uh, dude,
Speaker 1: come out of blockdawn. I don't no, no, dude come
Speaker 1: by to be a full five. Dude, come out to
Speaker 1: be a four nine. You know he did. He'll say, oh,
Speaker 1: this dude got it, and all of a sudden it's
Speaker 1: a four full one full three nine. I'm like, just
Speaker 1: split secon man. Oh man, hell, he needs to try
Speaker 1: to that. No, you know, so answer me this. That's
Speaker 1: him on the field. What I want to know other
Speaker 1: than going to Big Mama's house. When Nate Newton and
Speaker 1: Dion hang out in Canton Tech, it's all about jokes.
Speaker 1: We just we cracking. Now. He got the better of
Speaker 1: me because he on Instagram. So if you're gonna instagram
Speaker 1: your seals, you know, a snapchat or whatever he was doing.
Speaker 1: It's last fifteen seconds, which every one I'd never get
Speaker 1: a chance to call him, you know, he dogging me out.
Speaker 1: But I'm like, and he didn't tell me it onto
Speaker 1: that fifteen seconds because na I know it on't last
Speaker 1: fifteen I'm blast jumping in there. As soon as he
Speaker 1: parted that my blast, I'm going at it. So y'all

Speaker 1: we gotta get this over with because Nate, you're taking
Speaker 1: a road trip today, right yeah, man, I ain't gonnare
Speaker 1: to go through Canton mane. Now I'm rolling down south baby,
Speaker 1: Where are you going? I'm going down south? Baby? What's
Speaker 1: down south? Cuba? Down south? Baby? Yeah, I'm going out
Speaker 1: of side Louisiana. Baby, you might not come back. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Some of the best food you've ever had, right may
Speaker 1: bro in Liffeyette. I asked some some crawfish, but a
Speaker 1: lot of years ago, I mean new crawfish, huge and
Speaker 1: it wasna man when I finished you know all that?
Speaker 1: Right now, man, I think I uh, I got some
Speaker 1: type of feet swoll up of a toll swap. I
Speaker 1: can't think we out. I drown so many beers that
Speaker 1: so much that I went to the doctor two days later,
Speaker 1: said what did you ask some crawfish and drunk a
Speaker 1: lot of coolers back, that's gout. I'm taking this right here.
Speaker 1: I'm all right to take a beer with it, and
Speaker 1: then as you call it, and don't take no beer
Speaker 1: with it. You can't have crawfish anymore. No, I can
Speaker 1: eat it now, but I don't drink beer, so that
Speaker 1: you would be all right, that's good. Just can't combine
Speaker 1: the two. Huh No, not bet not back then, because
Speaker 1: there's certain things you can eat mixed stuff together. It
Speaker 1: just it ain't gonna settle, right, Yeah, Kurt, Yes, sir,
Speaker 1: you got a question for Nate, right, we'll do that
Speaker 1: after Well, they're talking about some of the free agents
Speaker 1: to bring it into visit. Supposedly they're talking with Cameron Fleming,
Speaker 1: offensive tackle. He's a right tackle with Patriots last season,
Speaker 1: and there's speculation. Now you're talking to him, you're talking
Speaker 1: to Adrian Watt Wadell, also a tackle. We're gonna see
Speaker 1: any chance that Colins are they start? Are they project
Speaker 1: the starters? Guard? They just backups? We need a swing tackle,
Speaker 1: that's one. Yeah. One person writer suggesting that maybe this
Speaker 1: isn't just a swing tackle situation. Maybe they would be
Speaker 1: looking at moving Collins again. Do you think that any
Speaker 1: chance they would do that? Yeah, they could do that.
Speaker 1: They could do that, and it to sow up your middle. See,
Speaker 1: the reason they want him to move is because now
Speaker 1: we got the middle sold up and then we have
Speaker 1: the left tackle sold up. Now you only have to
Speaker 1: help one position. Well, last year we had to help
Speaker 1: to position the right tackle starting out, which he turned
Speaker 1: out to do a great job Collins did, and then
Speaker 1: left guard. So you can't help everybody, so you know
Speaker 1: you can't. You can't help everybody on every place, So
Speaker 1: you know you got to battle now. And another reason
Speaker 1: we gotta understand now, we don't know way Chad's green
Speaker 1: that mentally either, right, you know, we don't know when
Speaker 1: we haven't seen him no more since that. Uh wow,
Speaker 1: how Batman said that dial bollicle holy dialoclea. Did they
Speaker 1: do that to protect him, protect him chazz mentally or
Speaker 1: did they just hey, we saw enough like we don't
Speaker 1: need to open up. I don't know where that went.
Speaker 1: But you notice, anybody that watched that game, announcer, any
Speaker 1: player that saw that game, he ain't no more good
Speaker 1: this year me, every player, every announcer and I'm like,
Speaker 1: I don't know if he ain't no more good, but
Speaker 1: if they do put him out there and something go
Speaker 1: wrong early, you don't wait till two of them three
Speaker 1: More Sacks album, right. Yeah. Yeah, he seemed he seemed
Speaker 1: to he seemed to be able just seeing him in
Speaker 1: the locker room and around. Yeah, you know, to be okay? Yeah,
Speaker 1: is anybody rushing him? True? I didn't try to put
Speaker 1: a move on that room. You all right, that's my
Speaker 1: home from Florida. Two. He's he ain't wore a breakdown
Speaker 1: like that. Hey, and he got a he got a
Speaker 1: clean mean beard too. Yeah, my guy, Oh that's how
Speaker 1: you rate him now? Yeah, I'm gonna put him on
Speaker 1: the That clean mean beard on his feet. That means
Speaker 1: you out, Kurt, Well, that's scraggly. Yeah, whiskers you had
Speaker 1: on any of that club? Sorry? Yeah, Well, the website's
Speaker 1: doing a free agent bracket. Shannon should put together a
Speaker 1: beard beard bracket. You know what we could do that
Speaker 1: there is right there, leave that beard. Who what's a
Speaker 1: good looking moon man? I'll get it through the off season.
Speaker 1: We vote on your beards every week. Do that. Let's
Speaker 1: you know what, let's the phones apparently work again, and
Speaker 1: we had someone call in without us prompting them too.
Speaker 1: So I feel like to close out the show, we
Speaker 1: should go to the phones. We also have a Nate
Speaker 1: in studio and now we have one on the phone. Nate,
Speaker 1: what's happening? Hey, y'all? Thank you in my call? Well
Speaker 1: hold on, where are you from? Man? I'm actually from
Speaker 1: Dallas but live in Columbus, Georgia. Okay, okay, come on.
Speaker 1: So you know he's huge Cowboys fan and and I
Speaker 1: think one of the offseason losses that we have was
Speaker 1: Keith Smith and and I know that he's a fullback,
Speaker 1: but I think it's such an important position for the Cowboys, Uh,
Speaker 1: you know, with the dynamic who's able to bring and
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, in terms of free agents,
Speaker 1: how how easy he's going to be to replace. But
Speaker 1: I wanted to eat his thoughts on on a possible
Speaker 1: free agent that they could, um you know, looked at
Speaker 1: to go that position. Um, and I wanted to know
Speaker 1: what y'all think about. He isn't played in a bit,
Speaker 1: but uh there's a fullback. John Connor played for the
Speaker 1: Jets and smother the teams. Yeah that's right, Um, we
Speaker 1: couldn't afford Keith, But if we couldn't afford Keith Smith,
Speaker 1: you think we're gonna afford a dude named Terman about that?
Speaker 1: He's he's a free agent still, so I mean, and
Speaker 1: I think he's a thirty years old, so he's still
Speaker 1: he still got probably got some of the tank. And
Speaker 1: with the age and the fact he hasn't played a
Speaker 1: couple of years, maybe he would be cheaper. I mean,
Speaker 1: what are your thoughts on that? You know what, when
Speaker 1: I remember watching the movie The First Terminator, Nay, I
Speaker 1: remember watching The First Terminator. You know, he may keep going,
Speaker 1: but they knocked the leg off the first Terma. So
Speaker 1: if he long as he can still a run is
Speaker 1: what I'm trying to say. As long as he can
Speaker 1: still a run, and so as long as he still
Speaker 1: got that physical toughness to dig out linebackers and to
Speaker 1: make plays on special teams, I think we should give
Speaker 1: a shot at it. If they still want, if they
Speaker 1: treasure to that position, that fullback position, yeah they don't,
Speaker 1: then maybe we'll miss I would think that's a young guys, like,
Speaker 1: You're not gonna bring in a thirty year old fullback
Speaker 1: one year? Yeah, one year one or two years, because
Speaker 1: it's how often do we use a fullback? I mean,
Speaker 1: he snaps the game. He's got to be a special
Speaker 1: teams guy. He is a special teams guy. He ain't
Speaker 1: just a fullback. Teams don't do that no more. You.
Speaker 1: You can't be a full just a fullback that don't
Speaker 1: work on teams no more. You. You're taking up a
Speaker 1: slot where you either have a young guy, very outstanding,
Speaker 1: special teams guy. And they called back in. But I'm
Speaker 1: quite sure he got to be a special teams guy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm sure, but I guess that's what I was thinking.
Speaker 1: You'd want a younger guy running down the field, plus
Speaker 1: a veteran minimum is probably too much to pay for
Speaker 1: a fullback these days. Brother, I'm gonna says he ain't
Speaker 1: gonna be just a fullback. He's gonna be a special
Speaker 1: teams guy. And there's a lot of guys on this
Speaker 1: team make two mil or one point five million dollars
Speaker 1: a year on this team. So and the reason I'm
Speaker 1: saying what I'm saying is you either get you either
Speaker 1: in it to try to win it or just okay,
Speaker 1: let's just go all young and and and take these whoopings.
Speaker 1: You know, going out getting another guy that's just filling
Speaker 1: another space. That's just a guy. You you you're not
Speaker 1: you're not setting yourself up to win. Okay, Dak will
Speaker 1: be in his third year next year. That means the
Speaker 1: running back of being his third year. Okay, we if
Speaker 1: we get four five years out of him, that mean
Speaker 1: we gotta on his fifth year being whatever money is.
Speaker 1: I'm talk about the running back. Okay, you're gonna you're
Speaker 1: gonna play. Uh say, Dak had a successful year next year,
Speaker 1: now you're gonna play. You're not gonna pay him in
Speaker 1: that year. Then you're gonna pay him in his fourth
Speaker 1: year and he had and supposed he had another successful year.
Speaker 1: Now you don't miss two years of trying to get
Speaker 1: things done. Now you got to overpay him. Did we
Speaker 1: go back in the same hole that we've always been in.
Speaker 1: We're gonna do it a little bit at lot different,
Speaker 1: but if we're gonna do it a lot difference. We
Speaker 1: got to win some games. Are you packing in go
Speaker 1: five and whatever? Yeah, five and whatever, and you keep drafting,
Speaker 1: but you know what, you're gonna have to play these
Speaker 1: You got to play these guys. Yeah, yeah, that's what
Speaker 1: we're talking about. It we're in the window. Now. They've
Speaker 1: got to do something now because Dak and Zeka cheap especially.
Speaker 1: I think you were saying last week twenty nineteen, that's
Speaker 1: what Romo's off the books. You got those guys still cheap.
Speaker 1: I mean, now they can't be screwing around too much.
Speaker 1: Now you you make a decision, dump the money. Let's
Speaker 1: go young, like like Nate said, let's let's let these
Speaker 1: guys play, get it off the books and let's start
Speaker 1: over and like go make some moves. I mean, you
Speaker 1: know a lot of teams, the Rams, that's what they did.
Speaker 1: They dump, dump, dump, And now they now they got
Speaker 1: a chance, got rid of the dumb coach. That's great.
Speaker 1: But uh, I'm gonna tell you who did it. You know,
Speaker 1: you can see what you want. But the Saints did
Speaker 1: it right, you know they they they they're like, you
Speaker 1: know what, we got a bunch of disground up guys,
Speaker 1: and we know the fans gonna be mad. Bye yeah bye, Okay,
Speaker 1: you can go disgrown on somewhere else, but you're gonna
Speaker 1: do it hit no more. And I'm not saying our
Speaker 1: guys are disgrown up, but it comes a point where
Speaker 1: the Scandrick move was not a bad move, you know,
Speaker 1: And like I say, I was a free agent, so
Speaker 1: I know about the chip on your shoulder and all that.
Speaker 1: That only goes so far. What you're gonna do with Dad?
Speaker 1: You know? I would I would not like for us
Speaker 1: to play games with him. And they maybe be talking
Speaker 1: to him secretly, we may not even know, but I
Speaker 1: don't want to play games. He's too big of a
Speaker 1: part of his team makeup to play games with it.
Speaker 1: So what you're gonna do? There is Tyrone Crawford in
Speaker 1: the conversation. You know, even though he's a great guy
Speaker 1: and you know he's not gonna he understands the business
Speaker 1: of the game. They all understand the business of the game.
Speaker 1: They become the business of again. Yeah yeah, well, you
Speaker 1: know what, let's get out of here. It's letting Nate
Speaker 1: get on the road. Yep. Yeah, you know what, man,
Speaker 1: you just bawled our show ups. Man, you do that
Speaker 1: every day. You know. I have to be so bad
Speaker 1: I can barely stay here. I actually almost thought, I
Speaker 1: thought finally getting it's yes, I'm glad, Yes, yeah, there
Speaker 1: we go. I gotta go to the bathroom. Karen, thanks
Speaker 1: for showing up. Hey, thanks for bringing Douglas. Thank you kid,
Speaker 1: thanks for pushing the buttons. We'll be back time hang on.
