1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,920 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones, Good morning, sir, 2 00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:09,079 Speaker 1: Good morning Kevin Corey. Great to be on. It's on 3 00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:13,600 Speaker 1: with you. And can't tell you how pretty this morning looks. 4 00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:17,320 Speaker 1: Knowing that a little less than a week from now 5 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:21,040 Speaker 1: we're going to be lining up. That's absolutely right, Jerry, 6 00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:22,800 Speaker 1: and I want to steal this first question. This is 7 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:24,760 Speaker 1: our third year. You know, we've gotten to know you 8 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 1: over time, and I want to let you get to 9 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:29,160 Speaker 1: know us just a little bit. And you talk about 10 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 1: how beautiful of the morning it is. It'll be ninety 11 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,920 Speaker 1: five ninety six degrees outside, my co host. My co 12 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:38,879 Speaker 1: host says that eating on a patio outside is not 13 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,320 Speaker 1: only overrated, but stupid. And I wanted to know, Jerry, 14 00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 1: if you are a fan of eating on the patio 15 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 1: or if you're like, nope, I am always eating indoors. 16 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: Do you know that I don't eat where it's hot? 17 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:53,520 Speaker 1: Are you see? Yes? I don't. I don't have appetite. 18 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 1: It tight number one and number two. I don't like 19 00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:01,160 Speaker 1: to eat and socialize or eat and talk. Okay, all right, 20 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: you like to sit down and eat and taste it 21 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 1: and savor it, but then move on or saved the 22 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:16,039 Speaker 1: talking for another time or so that I'm a little finnicky. 23 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:20,840 Speaker 1: I guess about eating, Uh, I don't like to do 24 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,199 Speaker 1: it when you're sweating and sweats running down your back. 25 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 1: Now I'll drink with you are cold. But seriously, uh no, 26 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: I'm not a big fan of being out in the 27 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 1: elements and trying to do something like eat. But now 28 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,559 Speaker 1: it can be fun. As you know, I hunt a lot, 29 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 1: and that has all kinds of uh, climate conditions to it. 30 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: It can be cold, hot, rainy, snow and all of it, 31 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 1: and that even makes it that much more fun. And 32 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 1: so I do hunt a lot, and I'm outdoor a lot. 33 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: And frankly, I saw a pitch sure the other day. 34 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 1: It was the first time I'd ever run out on 35 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: the field with the Cowboys relative to being out in 36 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 1: Thousand Oaks. It was our first practice and had a 37 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 1: picture of Menises then as a razor. But anyway, I 38 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 1: remember it like yesterday better than I can yesterday. And 39 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: I said, man, smell that grass because it was a 40 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: grass field. But that was a sense of smell that 41 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 1: I had done seeming like all my life relative to 42 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 1: play in football as a young person. So and I thought, man, 43 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 1: it's just good to be back there. I was running 44 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,239 Speaker 1: out on the field my first practice. It's just good 45 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: to be back where you can smell that grass. Fantastic 46 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: answer to that. I feel very vindicated now as well. 47 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: But I know that you're not in the business of 48 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: making these days any big, bold, super Bowl esque proclamations. 49 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 1: But now's the time of the year. Media's putting out 50 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 1: record predictions and all of this, and that when you 51 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 1: talk to the Cowboys fans and you look at this season, 52 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 1: do you look at this team and say, this is 53 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 1: a team that we feel like should be able to 54 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:15,799 Speaker 1: make the playoffs? Well, I see, without getting into the 55 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: real technical any facts behind what I say, but I 56 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: feel the team that I thought we were going to 57 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 1: have last year, and of course that was before Dak's injury. 58 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: That was your for you, for me over having Mike 59 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: as our coach, not necessarily appreciative of what lack of 60 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: our practice covid all of that, how it was going 61 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: to impact the actual team, and certainly not anticipating the 62 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 1: injuries and certainly not anticipating the breakdown that we had 63 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 1: in defense defense. But this year, with what we've addressed, 64 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: and boy, did we go at it. I'm sure you'll 65 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: give us that. We'll see how the results are. But man, 66 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: did we change it up? And you change something up 67 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: about as good as you can change it up and 68 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: correct it up. What we lost when we lost Stack 69 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,720 Speaker 1: and what we hope we've got back as our protection 70 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 1: in our front line on offense, and we've even now 71 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:28,160 Speaker 1: got a I think a much better A number eighty 72 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: eight is just better. He's stronger, he's better, and he 73 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,280 Speaker 1: certainly is the skill that we thought we were getting 74 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: when we drafted Lamb. So all of those things give 75 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 1: me the same feeling I had last year. We're gonna 76 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: be a good team. Well in that respect with the 77 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 1: offense and defense, what are your expectations? I don't hopes 78 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: would put it would be like, hey, number one offense, 79 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 1: number one defense. But for the offense and for the defense, 80 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 1: do you expect this offense to be top five, top three, 81 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: top ten? What would you expect this offense to be 82 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 1: in the defensive side? You really do need on really 83 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: both sides of the ball. You need a big play 84 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 1: to happen. We call it on offense, we call it 85 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,559 Speaker 1: plays over twenty yards. You've given up a big play 86 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: if it's over twenty yards, but we need big plays 87 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: on both sides of the ball. I think we've got 88 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: the schemes. Maybe we have the availability that's injury, and 89 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: certainly think we've got the talent to create some big 90 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 1: plays on both sides of the ball, and that's turnovers 91 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 1: usually on defense, but it can be a good field 92 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: position stop. So having said all of that, I think 93 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: we have improved across the board. Both sides of the 94 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:50,679 Speaker 1: ball are big play opportunities. When it comes to the offense, 95 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: because we've been discussing this off air quite a bit, 96 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 1: do you view this Cowboys offense as young? I know 97 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: at the skill position there's a lot of younger players, 98 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: but do you view the offense as young? And when 99 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: do players get old in the NFL? No, I don't 100 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 1: view us as young. I view us as experienced, and 101 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: I view us the verdict is out whether or not 102 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: we're experienced and available. Again, what's our ability to mitigate 103 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: any of injuries and the degree of them. But I 104 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: view us as a mature offense. I think we've got 105 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 1: continuity in our coordination. I think we've got continuity in 106 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: our offensive line. I think we've got a super Bowl 107 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: winning coach that really is certainly aware of everything we 108 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 1: need to do offensively. I think we've also got to 109 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:56,239 Speaker 1: coaches that have had their ups and downs, and they've 110 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 1: been in they've been hit in the foxhold and lived 111 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 1: to tell about it. Then I'm talking about across the board, 112 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: but I really am overall on offense. I like the 113 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: makeup of our coaches there. They haven't lost any stinger. 114 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: They're very aggressively excitable, they're passionate. Man, they're in They're 115 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: in their best parts of their career. More's young, more 116 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: our coordinators young, but the rest of them are right there. 117 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 1: Therefore they should be to really do a great job 118 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: of adjusting as well as implementing a good game plan. 119 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: I like where we are in our coaching staff. Jerry 120 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: Jones joined us here on the KNC Masterpiece on one 121 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: oh five three the Fan, and we were discussing this 122 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 1: a few minutes ago. What are your rookie defensive tackles? 123 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: Oh so o, diggi Zoo said about Tom Brady, his 124 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: weakness is that he's not very mobile, and then made 125 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: a couple of other comments about how he's a little 126 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: older and not too mobile. And if you get him 127 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,679 Speaker 1: off his spot, his pass rating goes down. Now, Jerry, 128 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: you've seen some of the greatest athletes in the NFL 129 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 1: play there game and you know how they act mentally 130 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: as well. I've knowing Tom the way you do. If 131 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: he saw that, would he take something like that, because, 132 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: like Michael Jordan was one of those guys that said, hey, 133 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: it's a small bit of information, it doesn't matter. It's 134 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: the game within the game within the game. Do you 135 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: think Tom Brady is that competitive that result and a 136 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: turnover Brady's part or was that result on a big play? 137 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: Take something like that and try to use it for 138 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: his own motivation as well as to the team if 139 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 1: he sees it. And but I don't think that impacts 140 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: the game. When you bought the Cowboys, did you have 141 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 1: a list of media folks that gave you bulletin board 142 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: material to make this team better? Well? Did I have 143 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 1: people that cooperated with other words, that would I could 144 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 1: set up or that worked with to do that? No? No, 145 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:59,719 Speaker 1: I did not. What got me on those on that 146 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 1: rant was my own mouth and sometimes good and sometimes 147 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 1: value and prompted too. H Did you so Kim Newton 148 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: is not part of the Dallas Cowboys, and Kim Newton's 149 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 1: still out there and the Cowboys they pick up Will Greer. 150 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,679 Speaker 1: And I'm kind of curious if if you picked up 151 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 1: the phone and called over to Bill Belichick and said, hey, hey, 152 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 1: what are your thoughts on this guy? Did you have 153 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: a conversation with him about that guy's a potential backup 154 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 1: for you. You know, most people in the NFL that 155 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: are even that are in the personnel area. I think 156 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:41,199 Speaker 1: half Cam Newton evaluated and his pluses and his minus. 157 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 1: You know, Norv Turner did a great job North Turner 158 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 1: did a great job with when he was a coordinator 159 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 1: there with Cam Newton. So I think he's he's no 160 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 1: secret as to what he does and does well. And 161 00:09:55,720 --> 00:10:01,440 Speaker 1: of course he was basically able to be evaluated if 162 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 1: you want to look at it for playing games and 163 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 1: results and all of that as an evaluation. And so 164 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 1: what you're seeing with him, he's available, as best I 165 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: can tell, He's available. That's always got the big if 166 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 1: if you can get it, make because the right kind 167 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:23,559 Speaker 1: of deal. He's available. But the point is that in 168 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: this particular case, now that's another thing with Will Grier 169 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 1: or it's another thing with some of the guys that 170 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: don't have the playtime or or haven't been as readily, 171 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 1: haven't had as much experience. But Cam Newton is not 172 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: playing because everybody's evaluated it and they're making a decision. 173 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,080 Speaker 1: He may be on a roster though as I'm speaking, 174 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 1: but we were very, very easy to evaluate Cam. Now, 175 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: I always love getting your perspective on outside NFL issues. 176 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: So I know you're focused on the Cowboys, but there's 177 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:03,560 Speaker 1: a lot of other things going on in the league 178 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 1: and in Buffalo. I know they're working on trying to 179 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: get a new stadium deal. Do you view Buffalo or 180 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 1: do you view all the NFL markets as teams that 181 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 1: you want to stay in that city or are there 182 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: certain cities that you're like they cannot lose their football team. Well, 183 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 1: I've at unique. It's just as Green Bay as unique 184 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: relative to size, location. You know, I'll never forget their owner. 185 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,960 Speaker 1: I was like twenty four. Excuse me, I was about 186 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: twenty eight, and the owner of the Buffalo Bills was 187 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 1: downstairs in my office in Oklahoma City, and he was 188 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: a founder of the AFL, and there it was the 189 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: owner and of course at that time, my dream I 190 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 1: woke up having fantasies of somehow being involved in the 191 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 1: NFL at that time, the AFL, and I'd go sit 192 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 1: around in lobbies when they'd have meetings, just by chance 193 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,719 Speaker 1: to get to Sallo to them and meet him. And 194 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,080 Speaker 1: so Boy, the owner was downstairs, and he had his 195 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: daughter with him, and he was looking at all deals 196 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 1: and looking at investing in all deals in Oklahoma City. 197 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 1: And so boy, I went down to meet him, and 198 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 1: you would have thought that I was meeting for me 199 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: Elvis Presley. So the bottom line is Buffalo has a 200 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: special place. All those AFL teams have a special place, 201 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 1: just as Green Bay does. And so to me, my 202 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 1: wish would be they work something out and stay there. 203 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 1: It's easy if you step back and say, well, there 204 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 1: are other areas that have more of this that it 205 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 1: seems you would want if you were what if you 206 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: would want if you own the team. The Pegoulas are very, 207 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 1: very deeply involved in Buffalo, and they are great people 208 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 1: and great story in this country. The Pegoulas himself are 209 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 1: as almost as big a story as the Bills and 210 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 1: how they have done what she has done. She's so involved, 211 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 1: Kim is so involved, and there she was literally literally 212 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:27,959 Speaker 1: at a period of time in her life. She is 213 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 1: an orphan and on the streets and in a part 214 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: of the world that most of us will never can 215 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 1: never even think about. And well, there she is there, 216 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 1: beautiful woman and so involved in competitiveness and wants Buffalo 217 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: to be something special. So they have between her Kim 218 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 1: and Terry, they have his final ownership situation for Buffalo 219 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: or any city. And to me, they can expand and 220 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 1: continue to get the interests they get from that great city, 221 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: Toronto that's eighty miles across the lake, and really have 222 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: a great franchise. Jerry, we are less less than a 223 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 1: week away. And I know you know training camp gets 224 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 1: you excited, and I know you're you're excited as you 225 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: move forward. Each week's fun. But you're about to play 226 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl Champions. Does that have any extra juice 227 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 1: for you as you get closer this week? And when 228 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 1: does the peak of excitement go for you? From the 229 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: minute I saw it, our chance to go play them, 230 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: our chance to go play them, not come here, go 231 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 1: play them, to go right where David slew the Giant, 232 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: and to go right there and open our season up 233 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 1: away from home and the foreign country and to step 234 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 1: down there and have the Cowboys go in there and 235 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 1: get a chance to show good and come out with 236 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 1: a victory. What an opportunity. And that's the way I 237 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 1: look at it. So way I look at the Unquestionably 238 00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 1: we're underdogs, and questionably they're the reigning World Old Champ. 239 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: First game they played since winning it, they bring back 240 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 1: I think Paneqett Gorse. This is a moving thing, but 241 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 1: they bring back as most starters of any team in 242 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 1: the NFL World Champions. What if we could go in 243 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 1: and win, it'd be great. And I know a lot 244 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 1: of Cowboys fans love hearing that answer, and that's getting 245 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,760 Speaker 1: them hyped up. We also, last thing I got for you, 246 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 1: We also talked with Stephen every week, and I believe, 247 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 1: is it possible. There's a wedding going on this weekend 248 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 1: before the season starts, and my beautiful granddaughter Jordan is 249 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 1: having a wedding, her wedding this weekend, and not a wedding, 250 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: her wedding, And so we're all excited about that. She's 251 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 1: marrying a wonderful man. And the bottom line is that 252 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 1: I just have to pinch myself to think that that 253 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: little Jordan, who can picture dearly jumping up and down 254 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 1: beds all over my house and bunking parties. And you know, 255 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: we haven't traditioned that all of my grandchildren spend the 256 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: night with us on the night before Christmas Eve, so 257 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 1: I get to be a part of a Senti clause 258 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 1: type thing. And so they'd come over here and all 259 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 1: stay and we'd all stay in the rooms and bunk 260 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: up and just have the best time. And that never 261 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 1: goes away. I don't care if they're up walking down 262 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 1: the album. They grew up pretty fast, though, don't they well, 263 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 1: and they're wonderful by the way. You guys are still puppies. 264 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 1: You're really you really are. I'm not going to let 265 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: the old man in and y'all, y'all do like puppies do, 266 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 1: and that is have a bright attitude and world's in it. Well, 267 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:53,000 Speaker 1: thank you very much. We love talk with you every Friday. 268 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 1: Have a blast at the wedding this weekend, and then 269 00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: have a blast Thursday night whipping those Tampa Bay bucks. 270 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 1: You bet, guys, it's great to be on with you.
