Um? I 66 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 1: met some guys down in Tampa when I went and 67 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: did that little Tampa Bay buccaneer a little deal. Yeah 68 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: two years Yeah, yeah, that was a mistake. But uh 69 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: and um, this one guy kept trying to do that. 70 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: It's called a pat playability test, and he could never 71 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 1: pass it. And he did it like fifteen times. So 72 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: I was like, man, I can go out there and 73 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: pass that test. And I went out and played. I 74 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 1: missed it by one shot the first time, so of 75 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: course I had to go do it again. So I 76 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: did it again and I passed it. And then they said, man, 77 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: if you your golf pro, you get to play free 78 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: golf anywhere United States.

Then the guys they they wanted stuff instantly. 114 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 1: They didn't want to work for it, you know, And 115 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,159 Speaker 1: I told them every day I was like, man, I 116 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,479 Speaker 1: played with feasibly fifteen Hall of famers from Cowboys to 117 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 1: the Buccaneers, and you know myself, Michael Irvin, Troy Emmett Kmart. 118 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: We all got to practice fifteen minutes early. We stayed 119 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 1: after practice thirty forty minutes after practice, worked on things. 120 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 1: And I was like, if we can do it, and 121 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 1: if those guys can do it, a player from Howard 122 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: University should be able to do it all day long 123 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 1: with no problem, no questions asked. So they started questioning stuff, 124 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 1: and you know how you got to be really smart 125 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: to get in Howard University. So these are kids that 126 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:54,119 Speaker 1: made what outside Washington, DC is not familiar and it's like, um, 127 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 1: these kids at like twenty nine and twenty eight on 128 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 1: the acts and they're sts.

So for you sound like a parent, just 131 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: it's just it's it's just the basic math. They didn't 132 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: want to instant credibility when they don't want to work 133 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 1: for it. And I was like, dude, if you stay after, 134 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: if you stay out the practice and work on the 135 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: things that I'm teaching you, I guarantee you to be better. 136 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 1: Because when I got to University of Tennessee my freshman year, 137 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: I was in the back of the line and I 138 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: looked up front and I first thing I said, I said, well, 139 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 1: I better get an education because I'm not gonna play here. 140 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 1: Away in the back of the I was waiting, I'm 141 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: not gonna play here. You got guys that was running 142 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: four twos and four threes, and guys that just came 143 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 1: from Olympic gold medals. Anybody we'd recognize that. You remember 144 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: that was at the front of the line, yeah, Willie 145 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: Golf saying my first guest. Yeah. So I'm looking at 146 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 1: these guys and I'm like, man, they ain't gonna never 147 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: play here. I better get this education, go get me 148 00:07:57,520 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 1: a good job, get a family, and just move on. 149 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: And I worked. I worked, Me and my roommate, Anthony Miller, 150 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 1: that charges that was my roommate in my freshman year. 151 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: So after practice, we ran over all the drills that 152 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: the coach taught us all did them all over again 153 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: after practice. I did that every day from my freshman 154 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,119 Speaker 1: year to my senior year. And then when I became 155 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: a junior I started playing. I was like, oh, I'm 156 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: kind of better than the guy that was in front 157 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: of me on freshman year. So you know, you just 158 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 1: gotta work, you know. And these kids nowadays don't want 159 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 1: to put in the work, you know, they just want 160 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: to say, Okay, I'm here, No, you got you got 161 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 1: to work. If you don't, if you're not gonna work, 162 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: you're not gonna get better.

I don't want 192 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: to pick on one. You know. I had three brothers 193 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: that got scholarship to play football and basketball in college. 194 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,719 Speaker 1: So I didn't want to be the one didn't do that. 195 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: And they all graduated and they all got the degrees, 196 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: and I didn't want to be the one that didn't 197 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: do that. So I just had that extra motivation. You know, 198 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: when the other guys go out there and there was 199 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 1: smoking weed and drinking. I was home.

Yeah, Actually, 330 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,920 Speaker 1: then we got to play in late and that's why 331 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 1: miss the number eighty eight was already on the side 332 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 1: that I line up in the huddle. And then once 333 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,440 Speaker 1: I heard the first couple of numbers, I know, I 334 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:29,200 Speaker 1: just take off to the right hand side because it 335 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: was was a right formation and I had caught that 336 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: pass like four times that game. It was a curl route. 337 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 1: And then Mike heard it and he just took off 338 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: because he wanted the curl. He wanted to catch the ball. 339 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 1: So I'm sitting there, I'm like, oh, I gotta go 340 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 1: run the eight route, you know, the bang hag. So 341 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 1: I go. And I'm sitting there and Choy's calling the 342 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 1: cadence and I'm looking. I'm say, oh my goodness. They 343 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,399 Speaker 1: rolling coverage, and you know, they rolled over to Michael. 344 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: They put a guy on top of Michael, and once 345 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 1: they started rolling, I said, Man, it's gonna be man 346 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:00,920 Speaker 1: to man. I just gotta get cross this guy's face. 347 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,640 Speaker 1: You know, on that eight route. Once you crossed the face, 348 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 1: you know number eight, you know what he's gonna do 349 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 1: with it. He's gonna put it right in your chest 350 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 1: and you know, NeXT's history. Yeah, they ended up. I 351 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 1: was listening to Troy Aikman talk about it. They ended 352 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 1: up blitzing on the play, and so when he saw 353 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 1: the blitz, it was like that curl route. I don't 354 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 1: know that curl right, I'm going to the post to 355 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: the left and hit him at about the thirty five 356 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,639 Speaker 1: yard line. And I believe it was Don Griffin was 357 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 1: the cornerback covering you, and he slipped right kind of 358 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 1: left him in your in your wake. I don't you know. 359 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: I had a lot of concussions. That's the story. And 360 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:42,360 Speaker 1: they wanted me to ask you about was was Michael switching? 361 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 1: It was supposed to be his route and he switched 362 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 1: with you in the huddle, and that's that's what he 363 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 1: want to be asking. Yeah, you know, Michael wanted all 364 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,640 Speaker 1: the passes, you know which which I don't blame him, 365 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 1: you know, I was telling Uh. Charles was like, yeah, 366 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: what you do you catch two or three passes of game? 367 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:00,400 Speaker 1: I said yeah, but they were like two or three 368 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 1: passes for like ninety yards And uh, I said, I was. 369 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 1: I tell people that I was fourth in line. They 370 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 1: had to give it to Emmett, they had to throw 371 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 1: it to Michael, they had to give it to know 372 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 1: a check and then pour me and moose. We were left. 373 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 1: We were left there and in the back waiting and 374 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 1: fighting for two or three ball holes of a game. 375 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: So why didn't you finish it? You got tackled at 376 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:28,120 Speaker 1: that what nine yards? Like? See what people don't understand? 377 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:31,200 Speaker 1: It was probably best that I got tackled because if 378 00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 1: I were to scored, they had ton time left. And 379 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: you know number eight on the other side, right, You 380 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: see what he was doing that whole game because they 381 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,120 Speaker 1: were to still been four minutes to go in the game, 382 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: and every time they got the ball, they moved the 383 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 1: ball very well on our defense that day. And if 384 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:48,919 Speaker 1: if I were to score, they'd got that, they'd got 385 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: the ball back and they ain't no telling what could 386 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 1: have happened. They could probably score got an onside kick. 387 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: So it was best that I got. I got caught 388 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 1: and tackle and then Kmart finished the deal for me. 389 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,640 Speaker 1: Kmart ended up score in the touchdown. Didn't you guys 390 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 1: went for it? Didn't you? Was it fort you were? 391 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 1: It was about a two or three yard catched for Cable. 392 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 1: It was like two or three yard catch because I 393 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 1: think Jimmy decided instead of kicking a field goal, he 394 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: wanted to touchdown. If I remember, yes, And luckily we're 395 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: not playing under today's rules, because they might have they 396 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 1: might have got Kmart with his knee down right, You're right, yeah, 397 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,719 Speaker 1: they couldn't review it, right, There was no replay at 398 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:27,160 Speaker 1: that time. And then the funny thing was, is okay, 399 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 1: you score a touchdown. It was twenty four twenty, so 400 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 1: the touchdown should have made it thirty one twenty, right, 401 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 1: missed the extra point? Yeah, and so now it's thirty 402 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: twenty and San Francisco still got a chance. But game 403 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:42,919 Speaker 1: ends uh thirty twenty, and that goes down as one 404 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 1: of the great plays in Cowboys history that got him 405 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,639 Speaker 1: to the uh super Bowl. Did you realize at the 406 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:52,439 Speaker 1: moment what kind of what took place with that player? 407 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:54,879 Speaker 1: Is it kind of sink in later? No, I kind of. 408 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,879 Speaker 1: I kind of felt that once I got down then 409 00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 1: I got tackled if if you ever when you watch 410 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 1: it again, I just turned around and threw my hands 411 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 1: up on my knees and know what Check is standing 412 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: in there, And to my mind, I said, yeah, we're 413 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,119 Speaker 1: going to the super Bowl. I said, I said, I'm 414 00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 1: gonna be the first one to go to the super 415 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 1: Bowl from the Liberty old town of ten thousand people. 416 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:17,920 Speaker 1: They're going to the super Bowl, and it's just, you know, 417 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 1: it's something that you dream about and you know, you 418 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 1: always think about it and then um, you know, we 419 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: were it's it's it's a it's a beautiful thing when 420 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 1: you have fifty two guys that think the same way 421 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:39,000 Speaker 1: and do the same thing, you know, day after day, 422 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 1: week after week. Year at the year that nineteen ninety 423 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 1: one to ninety five, that those seasons when you had 424 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 1: guys that work the same way, no one really cared about, 425 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:55,640 Speaker 1: you know, the accolades. We knew Michael Irvan was gonna 426 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 1: do his deal because that's Mike. But I didn't care 427 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,200 Speaker 1: about being you know, the number two guys. I just 428 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: wanted to win, catch the passes, win super Bowls, you know, 429 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,959 Speaker 1: have fun in the process.

Well back down when 494 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 1: he got there, there was only one place to go, 495 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 1: Cowboys Cafepen a lot of time. Yeah, Danny, we got 496 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 1: you walking around with the with the wireless and I 497 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,560 Speaker 1: know some people have some questions who we got out there. 498 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:58,200 Speaker 1: Alvin Tonight's first question comes from Drisco from Frisco. They 499 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:02,160 Speaker 1: having I got a question for you, and I hope 500 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 1: it don't steal Mickey's thunder because he probably had this mind. 501 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 1: But you led the league one year or twenty four 502 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 1: point nine yards per catch with thirty three catches, which 503 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 1: when I did some research, is the fifth highest in 504 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: the history of the NFL, which is amazing. And nobody 505 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 1: in this day and times even getting close. But you 506 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:28,159 Speaker 1: was even saying you're you weren't the fastest guy on 507 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 1: the team. You had another guy, Michael Irvin, that was 508 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:36,480 Speaker 1: more popular as far as being everybody's hero and everybody's guy. 509 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:39,359 Speaker 1: And I saw you play. I was here and I 510 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 1: saw you, and there was something special about what What 511 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: was different that you know that we're not doing now? 512 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 1: There's something that I mean, it wasn't your speed. Was 513 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 1: it the leaping ability maybe? Or you know, I have 514 00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 1: to kind of disagree with you on that. With I 515 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:01,639 Speaker 1: was a world class sprinter of that, I don't forget that. 516 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,920 Speaker 1: And he could jump high. I got. I got a 517 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 1: little bit faster, you know when I when I left Tennessee, 518 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: and um, I just um today it's hard to put 519 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 1: a finger on um because it like myself and Troy. 520 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 1: We threw those gold routes after practice, and Troy knew, 521 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: you know, we had a thing. If we're even, we're 522 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:33,920 Speaker 1: leaving me. And Troy knew once we would even, he 523 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:35,439 Speaker 1: would throw it out there and let me run up 524 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,159 Speaker 1: under it. He said, if the dB was about a 525 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 1: half into your yard in front of me, he was 526 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: just gonna throw it up. And he of course you 527 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:46,159 Speaker 1: if he throw it up, I gotta go up and 528 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,119 Speaker 1: get it. So and I always told Troy when I 529 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:52,400 Speaker 1: first got here, never overthrow me, because if you throw 530 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,680 Speaker 1: it up in the air, there's nobody in this league 531 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 1: gonna be able to jump up there with me. And 532 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 1: I can guarantee that, and now guarantee you will not. 533 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: I would. I won't let anybody intercept your ball. So 534 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 1: just throw it up, or just throw it out there, 535 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 1: I go get it. But I think today you know 536 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 1: you have to you have to know your receivers. You 537 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 1: have to know who you're throwing to. Like h I'm 538 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 1: not throwing Daka but under the bus. But like the 539 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:21,200 Speaker 1: other night I saw him throw a ball out of 540 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 1: bounds on a goal route. It's like, you should never 541 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:28,879 Speaker 1: throw it out a bounce on a goal route. You 542 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 1: should always give your guy a chance because in practice 543 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,879 Speaker 1: in the meeting rooms, you're looking at that guy and 544 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 1: you're saying, I'm gonna give you a chance because you 545 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: make five million dollars a year. I make whatever. Whatever 546 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: we have to make plays and that's just not happening. 547 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 1: And I don't know if it's a trust factor or 548 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 1: he's afraid to throw an interception, but at some point 549 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 1: you have to you have to keep it in bounds 550 00:28:58,400 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: to give a guy a chance to make a play 551 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 1: on the all let's let's talk about Let's take a 552 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 1: quick break, and let's talk about today's game and today's Cowboys. 553 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 1: When we get back, I want to get your opinion 554 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 1: on the way the game's changed and kind of what 555 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 1: you see the state of the Cowboys. End. We'll get 556 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 1: Daniel asked some more questions and we'll be right back. 557 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 1: This is the Dallas Cowboys Legends radio show, brought to 558 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 1: you by s WBC Mortgage.

This will be a player up 563 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 1: in the air and it must be gits. It might 564 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 1: be club. It's a touchdown, HiT's a touchdown. Paul picked 565 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 1: out Struck Midnight, thirty four yards hell of the Harper 566 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 1: in the insult for the first time as a poll. 567 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 1: They went to the high jumper. Oh, it's gotta be 568 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 1: your day when you hit that play. We are back. 569 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:57,239 Speaker 1: And if you didn't know special guest Alvin Harper, I'll 570 00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:00,120 Speaker 1: tell you what. Bradsham sounds just as great today as 571 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: he did. Voice had changed? Has it changed one bit? 572 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 1: And neither of you. Mick, you look great. Well, I 573 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 1: don't know about that, but I was there for that 574 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 1: play and uh to uh set the scene up for Alvin. 575 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 1: They're at Washington, Uh basically, if I remember correctly, there, 576 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 1: they're six and five, and uh, Jimmy basically told you 577 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 1: know what, we got to run the table if we're 578 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 1: gonna get in the playoffs. And they had tried these 579 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 1: Hill Mary passes with Troy forever, and Troy hated him 580 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 1: because they'd always get intercepted and it would ruin his 581 00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 1: quarterback rating. Right, And so there's only a couple of 582 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 1: seconds left in the half U and uh, it's a 583 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,239 Speaker 1: it's a tight game. And they it's like, all right, 584 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:46,959 Speaker 1: it's seven seven actually, and it's like all right, they 585 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 1: called a hill Mary and I and Aikman told the 586 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 1: story afterwards. He goes, yeah, I went in the huddle 587 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 1: and go, okay, here we go another interception, and uh, 588 00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 1: Alvin goes down and take it from there. When you 589 00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 1: when you knew that they were gonna uh, Brad called 590 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 1: it the Big Ben. But it was kind of a 591 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 1: hell Marry, Yeah, it was. It was a hell Mary. Yeah, 592 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 1: just just don't let them catch it, right, you know, 593 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 1: that's that's the premises. And you know Troy tell you 594 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 1: don't let him catch it. No, he didn't see anything. 595 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 1: He he just dropped back and through it. And I 596 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 1: and amazingly, when I got down there, I just turned around. 597 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 1: Uh it wasn't really anybody really around me. You know, 598 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 1: they were there, but they wouldn't like next to me. 599 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 1: And then when I saw it, I was like, man, 600 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: I just go up highest you can go and just 601 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 1: get it at as highest point, you know what you've 602 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 1: been taught, and just grab it and come down with it. 603 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 1: So luckily I caught it and came down with it 604 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 1: and next thing and it was a touchdown. And then 605 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 1: I got a headache. Michael, everyone beating me in the 606 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 1: head and then she had and here's here's the rest 607 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 1: of the story. So they're leading fourteen seven at halftime 608 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,720 Speaker 1: and they go in, they come back and I don't 609 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 1: know if that was Troy's last completion or not, but 610 00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 1: he heard his knee and remember Burline had to come 611 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,239 Speaker 1: in and finish the game, right, and they ended up 612 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 1: hanging on. They went on to win twenty four twenty one. 613 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 1: Mike caught the touchdown on Darryl Green to kind of 614 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 1: break him in the lead. And the funny thing was, 615 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 1: and so this is do the math. How many years ago, 616 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 1: twenty seven years ago, before the game in the Sunday paper, 617 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 1: I predicted the Cowboys were gonna win twenty four twenty 618 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 1: one and Michael Irvin was gonna be the big difference 619 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 1: in the game. And Mike ended up catching like five 620 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 1: six seven passes, had one hundred yards on Darryl Green. Right, Yeah, 621 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:42,720 Speaker 1: that was that was amazing to watch because when I'm 622 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,400 Speaker 1: when I was running my routes and A no, I 623 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:47,960 Speaker 1: wouldn't getting it kind of I can kind of peek 624 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 1: over there, and I was watching Mike just do his 625 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,040 Speaker 1: thing on Polo Deal Green. I feel sorry for Deal 626 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 1: and they he was beating him a real bad And 627 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,480 Speaker 1: with that win, they went on and won the five 628 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 1: straight games, four or more with Burline as the quarterback, 629 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 1: and then went into the playoffs and went to Chicago 630 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 1: and one. No one, no one would have thought that 631 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 1: they could go on the road and win, and it 632 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 1: was the Yeah, it was hold. So see Cowboys fans, 633 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 1: there is still hope for the season eight six and five, 634 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 1: and I think they had lost two in a row. 635 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 1: He had lost an overtime game to Houston if I 636 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:25,959 Speaker 1: remember correctly, and and I'm maybe the Giant speech or somebody, 637 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 1: but they came on and and that play at the 638 00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 1: end of the half really kind of turned things around. 639 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:33,840 Speaker 1: And Alvin, that was twenty seven years ago. And that's 640 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 1: the last time Mickey's got a game prediction, right, yeah, right, 641 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 1: That tells you sometimes you get lucky, you know, Danny, 642 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:43,760 Speaker 1: you got another question for us, I sure you guys. 643 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:48,960 Speaker 1: This time it's from Sarah from Leonard, Texas. Hi. There. 644 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 1: So out of the coaches that you've had, whether it 645 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 1: be from you know, the Redskins or the Cowboys. Which 646 00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 1: coach was most influential to you and what part of 647 00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 1: that influence did you take away that you incorporate into 648 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:10,840 Speaker 1: your own coaching. Oh, good, one great question. Oh actually, 649 00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:16,160 Speaker 1: actually it's two coaches. Um. Uh, Jimmy Johnson, you know, 650 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 1: and everybody knows Jimmy Johnson was a dictator. And um, 651 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 1: just being on time. That means you're late. If you're 652 00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:29,360 Speaker 1: starting a meeting at two o'clock, you need to be 653 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:32,600 Speaker 1: there at one fifteen because you never know when he 654 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 1: might show up, you know, and start the meeting. And 655 00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:38,480 Speaker 1: then then if you're late, that's five thousand dollars. You know, 656 00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:43,120 Speaker 1: Just just those little things that incorporated in your everyday 657 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 1: life skills. You know, you know, when you're trying to 658 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 1: go somewhere, you make sure you on time and just 659 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,160 Speaker 1: doing the right things, and you know, and making sure 660 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 1: that other people around you are doing the same thing, 661 00:34:56,120 --> 00:35:00,440 Speaker 1: that you have the same mindset as and M and 662 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:04,840 Speaker 1: the other coaches. Norv Turner And when Norv was in 663 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 1: the up at the Redskins, and I told him I 664 00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 1: was thinking about coaching too, and he said, just got 665 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:15,400 Speaker 1: to always remember that when you're coaching them. They're not you, 666 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,839 Speaker 1: So you can't expect them to high jump seven five. 667 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:21,239 Speaker 1: You can't expect them to be four three or four 668 00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 1: four guys. You have to coach each person accordingly. And 669 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:26,440 Speaker 1: that's what I learned from nor when I was here 670 00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:32,320 Speaker 1: in Dallas. Norv. Norv never called a plague that he 671 00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,279 Speaker 1: wasn't comfortable with you in or what or when you 672 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 1: wasn't comfortable Like I ran posts, goal routes and some comebacks. 673 00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:44,840 Speaker 1: M Norv never hardly ever called me with end routes 674 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:48,319 Speaker 1: like slants like Michael. Michael Irvin was the dirty guy. 675 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:50,839 Speaker 1: He ran the end routes, the slants. Now I could 676 00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:54,239 Speaker 1: have ran those routes, but I didn't particularly prefer them 677 00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 1: because I was a big guy. You know, you got 678 00:35:56,680 --> 00:36:01,920 Speaker 1: Rodney Lot, you got dirty Waters, blessed dead um, you know, 679 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,359 Speaker 1: and those type of guys ready to knock you out 680 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 1: and um. So when I started coaching, I just make 681 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 1: sure those guys knew that when we're practicing, we're practicing, 682 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 1: you know, no b ass. We all had to do 683 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:18,800 Speaker 1: to do a job. We all had to try to 684 00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 1: get better. And then on the other aspect, when I 685 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,359 Speaker 1: was looking at guys, in the NFL Europe and at 686 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,400 Speaker 1: Howard University. I know some of them didn't have the 687 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:30,759 Speaker 1: skill set that I had, so I had to coach 688 00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 1: them accordingly to based on their skill set. I don't 689 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:36,880 Speaker 1: think that message got to Charles Hayley when he was coaching. 690 00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:42,680 Speaker 1: He expected everybody to be as good as he was, right, Yeah, yeah, Look, 691 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,360 Speaker 1: that's a that's a that's a great question. That's a 692 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:49,239 Speaker 1: really good question. So, um, you know, Alvin was very 693 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,839 Speaker 1: fortunate when he got to the Cowboys a twelfth pick. 694 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:55,319 Speaker 1: I believe it was in the first round. Yes, Uh, 695 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,960 Speaker 1: Russell Maryland was the number one pick. North Turner arrived 696 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 1: in this off fence was struggling until Norav got here. 697 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:04,399 Speaker 1: And then he goes to Washington as a head coach 698 00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:08,319 Speaker 1: and then you end up there eventually. Was he still 699 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 1: there when you got there or no? Was he was there? 700 00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 1: He was there? Right? So uh and and in his 701 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 1: second year in the league he's going to the Super Bowl. 702 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 1: You must have thought this is just kind of the 703 00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:22,920 Speaker 1: way life is in the National Football League. Uh, not exactly, 704 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 1: because you know, when when I first got here, now 705 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:29,040 Speaker 1: you were you weren't even starting right now, I know, 706 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:31,799 Speaker 1: I wasn't starting, and then I was. I was coming 707 00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:36,839 Speaker 1: to a team that two years ago. So when they 708 00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:39,400 Speaker 1: drafted you do you go, oh no. But when they 709 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 1: ad badded me, I was like, oh, man, you know 710 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:44,719 Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of Cowboy fans probably don't notice, um, 711 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:48,880 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh still has had the thirteenth pick, and growing up, 712 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 1: I was still a fan. Oh really yeah. And I 713 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:54,319 Speaker 1: already knew I was going to the Cowboys the night before, 714 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 1: because you know, they had called and worked everything out 715 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:02,319 Speaker 1: and um, and coming here, I was like, man, I'm 716 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:08,319 Speaker 1: going Roger's starback. Man, I hate that dude. Growing up, 717 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:11,480 Speaker 1: all my friends are Cowboy fans. I mean everybody in 718 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:15,440 Speaker 1: my hometown virtually almost Cowboy fans. And you know, Roger 719 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:17,920 Speaker 1: the Dodger. The last two minutes of the game, here 720 00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:21,240 Speaker 1: he goes again. Cowboys win. And they were pretty pretty 721 00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 1: boys back then. You know the Drew Parrisons, the Tony 722 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 1: Doors sets, you know Roger the Dodger. You know those guys, 723 00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 1: and you know you had to steal curtain. They didn't 724 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:32,799 Speaker 1: talk about them. They were just dirty. They just went 725 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,719 Speaker 1: about their business and in won games. And I kind 726 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:38,839 Speaker 1: of and I kind of gravitated to that and then 727 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:44,359 Speaker 1: Loyd Behole, I'm coming in Cowboys drafting.

So remember I forget his name, and 787 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:07,560 Speaker 1: God bless me. The priests that used to come in 788 00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:10,919 Speaker 1: from Miami. He was a priest for the h Father. 789 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:14,200 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, so I know who you're talking about. So 790 00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:17,400 Speaker 1: I'm I'm on the sideline acting like a stone cold fool, 791 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:20,840 Speaker 1: and I'm just throwing cuss words all over place. So 792 00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 1: the priest comes up to me. He puts his hands 793 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:27,440 Speaker 1: on me, and he tries to console me, and I 794 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:33,040 Speaker 1: I cuts the priest out. I literally cuts the priest. 795 00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:38,279 Speaker 1: And he looked at me and I and I was like, 796 00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:40,160 Speaker 1: just get away from me. I said, I can't believe 797 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:41,959 Speaker 1: it doing me like this. He said, no, you're gonna 798 00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:44,680 Speaker 1: score a touchdown. You're gonna scown. So we go out 799 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:48,120 Speaker 1: and and I said, man, tell Norm to call nine 800 00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:51,120 Speaker 1: nine pump man so I can get in his end zone. 801 00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:53,759 Speaker 1: So try try come up and say, listen, harp, we 802 00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:57,160 Speaker 1: got nine pump. So Jay, make sure you get down 803 00:42:57,200 --> 00:43:00,400 Speaker 1: the sideline and get outside. Release because they were forcing 804 00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 1: us inside. So I was like, man, I gotta go. 805 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 1: I was like, because he gonna throw it to me regardless. 806 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 1: So luckily, luckily with Check tucked the safety and once 807 00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 1: he once he saw no check coming, he come down. 808 00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:12,800 Speaker 1: That's why it was so wide, because I beat the 809 00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:14,879 Speaker 1: gas so bad to the line of scrimmage because they're 810 00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:17,359 Speaker 1: paying like two man man underneath. So I beat him 811 00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 1: really bad, and next thing I was gone, you know. 812 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:22,719 Speaker 1: And the funny thing is when I went back and 813 00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:25,120 Speaker 1: just to make sure, I remembered the play and I 814 00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:28,960 Speaker 1: saw the highlight when Troy hit his last foot, he 815 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:32,160 Speaker 1: almost slipped down, almost slipped down. All this went down 816 00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:35,160 Speaker 1: and it was like, oh, look at that, and so 817 00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:39,239 Speaker 1: you caught it, you scored, and what did you do? Oh? 818 00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:40,560 Speaker 1: I had to put it over, dunk it over the 819 00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:43,520 Speaker 1: goal post seven to five high. Jumper went and spiked 820 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:45,800 Speaker 1: it over the goal the cross Did you start that? 821 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:48,239 Speaker 1: Were you the first one to do that? Yes, the 822 00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:53,280 Speaker 1: Tony Gonzalez. They'd given him all the crack please. I Actually, 823 00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:56,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you who actually did it first, Hollywood. 824 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:58,920 Speaker 1: Hennison did it first. Yes, he did. He did it 825 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 1: first on a kick off or something. He got a 826 00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:03,360 Speaker 1: fumble or something. And then when he did it, they 827 00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:05,840 Speaker 1: said Tom Landry told him, he said, if you do 828 00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:09,600 Speaker 1: that again, you're the first thing out of here. So 829 00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:15,480 Speaker 1: what has changed? What is the biggest difference between when 830 00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:18,319 Speaker 1: you guys played and the way the game's played now, 831 00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:20,480 Speaker 1: other than the rules changes and things like that, is 832 00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:23,319 Speaker 1: there is there a big difference between then and now. 833 00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:28,120 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, the game is. You know, you got these 834 00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:30,960 Speaker 1: guys that are bigger, fast, and stronger. But I don't 835 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:35,160 Speaker 1: think it's as tough as when we played. Yeah, because 836 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 1: you know, you can't touch guys after five yards. You know, 837 00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:41,759 Speaker 1: I wish I was playing now with my size and 838 00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:44,400 Speaker 1: the way I ran, you can't touch me after five yards. 839 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:48,000 Speaker 1: I have a billion yards, literally, I have a billion 840 00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:50,200 Speaker 1: yards because you got guys now you've never heard of 841 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:53,040 Speaker 1: its catching seventy and eighty passes a year with a 842 00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:56,960 Speaker 1: thousand yards and five or six seven touchdowns And now 843 00:44:57,239 --> 00:45:01,719 Speaker 1: you can go in the middle without any percussions. You know, 844 00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:04,640 Speaker 1: when we played, you know, like I said earlier, you 845 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:08,600 Speaker 1: got Ronnie Lott, You know you got Steve Atwater. You know, 846 00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:11,400 Speaker 1: you got guys sitting on the hash just dying for 847 00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 1: you to come in there so they can unload on you. 848 00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:17,440 Speaker 1: Now you got safeties. They can't play the game because 849 00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:19,959 Speaker 1: they're afraid they might get a thirty thousand dollar fine. 850 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:23,120 Speaker 1: You're gonna get suspend it. So they just like the 851 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:26,400 Speaker 1: other night when we were watching it on I showed 852 00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:27,799 Speaker 1: it to a guy I went to a golf shop 853 00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:31,759 Speaker 1: the other day. If you watch Smith on Mary at 854 00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:35,719 Speaker 1: his last touchdown, if you watch him, he ran up 855 00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:39,359 Speaker 1: to him and he was probably afraid to unload on him. 856 00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 1: He reached out and touched him. He washed out and 857 00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:44,160 Speaker 1: tagged him. Yeah, instead of going in and hitting him, 858 00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:46,239 Speaker 1: because you don't know what the quarterback is gonna do, 859 00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:48,640 Speaker 1: whether he's gonna givehimself up or he's gonna slide. So 860 00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:51,080 Speaker 1: now I can't. Now I can't go one thousand miles 861 00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:53,200 Speaker 1: an hour and hit him where I want to hit him. 862 00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:56,880 Speaker 1: So I just think that the toughness and and you know, 863 00:45:57,000 --> 00:45:59,719 Speaker 1: the rule changes have really made made the game you know, 864 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:03,120 Speaker 1: flat football almost Yeah, Yeah, you're absolutely right. And you 865 00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:06,279 Speaker 1: know the thing about it, uh when you were talking 866 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:12,279 Speaker 1: about you know, not heard of uh. In his playoff career, Um, 867 00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:15,960 Speaker 1: he caught twenty four passes get this for six hundred 868 00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:19,640 Speaker 1: and fifty five yards in the playoffs. Wow, you average 869 00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:23,560 Speaker 1: twenty seven point three a catch in the playoffs. Well 870 00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:27,840 Speaker 1: that's what I was saying on Hayley listen playoff time. 871 00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:31,520 Speaker 1: They got on these shoulders right here. Yeah, they on 872 00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:33,919 Speaker 1: these shoulders, playoffs, and then they get to the super Bowl, 873 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:38,040 Speaker 1: then they forget him. That's that's hilarious. And then there's 874 00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:40,480 Speaker 1: another game when you were talking about jumping up high 875 00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:44,359 Speaker 1: and catching it. Uh, the ninety four Thanksgiving game. Yeah, 876 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:47,719 Speaker 1: little real Buckley flipan and Garrett had to come in 877 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:51,600 Speaker 1: and play. Remember Troy was hurt, Rodney Pete was hurt. 878 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:54,319 Speaker 1: And the funny thing was is Garrett had to start 879 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:58,319 Speaker 1: the game and uh, brill his wife says, Hey, don't 880 00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:00,840 Speaker 1: worry about it, just throw it up high and Elvin 881 00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:03,360 Speaker 1: will catch it. Eddy. How many did he throw to you? 882 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:07,080 Speaker 1: He right, two touchdowns and some other and so he 883 00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:10,520 Speaker 1: he's your guy. Yeah, Jason, my guy. But I but 884 00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:12,799 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what a lot of people don't know. Uh, 885 00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 1: a little funny story real fast. When we started that game, 886 00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:18,560 Speaker 1: you know, Jason looked like he was a little nervous, 887 00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 1: and uh, Nate Nate Newton said, listen, Jason, just looking 888 00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:28,440 Speaker 1: the huddle. You got all pro line, you got two 889 00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:30,840 Speaker 1: monsters on the outside.
