00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 1: preseason games as well. Maybe not preseason Oh maybe not okay, sorry,

23
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,320
Speaker 1: is true or not. Well, the NFL's kind of loosely

24
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: sending out stuff to keep everybody interested as kind of

25

Speaker 1: to town. George Washington crossing over. Where is the lake

34
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,519
Speaker 1: out there? What is what is the lake Lambo? Lake Lambo?

35
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: Is that now? It's lake area like Michigan. Oh man,

36
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 1: he'd be like Green Bay borders one of the great lakes.

37
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's right. It's Lake Lambo's close.

38
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,399
Speaker 1: There you go, all right, I mean there's a bay

39
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 1: there because it's Green Bay. There, you go there, you go.

40
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 1: I've had my feet in that bay before, believe it

41
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: or not, because I did a parade up there or something.

42
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 1: A parade. Yes, we were in a parade, me and

43
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: a bunch of other old veterans. This was twenty years ago,

44
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 1: so I was still in old former veteran and a

45
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 1: former player, and we went to some parade and we

46
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 1: were I don't know where this town was, but the

47
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 1: water was so clear. I don't know what what town

48
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,520
Speaker 1: it was around Green Bay. And we had a little

49
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,640
Speaker 1: parade and we were in the sports bus signing all

50
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 1: the graphs, and when we had a break, they had

51
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: a little doc there. I put my feet in the

52
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 1: water and it looked like I was in Jamaica. It

53
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 1: was that clear. It was not in Lake Michigan. I

54
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 1: don't know where it was. Someone told me where it

55
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 1: was before. I forgot that twenty years after that. So

56
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 1: now it's it's got some really nice if you go

57
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: up there to the it's a beautiful it's beautiful up

58
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: in there and the Michigan area to have a spot

59
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: there where people can sunbathe and actually swim in the water.

60
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 1: One of my best friends I grew up with his

61
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: parents had a cottage north of Green Bay. It was one.

62
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 1: It was on a river, and it was just gorgeous. Yes,

63
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 1: except the time I wasn't dreaming, except the time we

64
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 1: went up there to go skiing in the Upper Peninsula

65
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 1: of Michigan. And uh we woke up that morning and

66
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:25,559
Speaker 1: it was forty below not wind chill, forty below right,

67
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,160
Speaker 1: and we were like, no, we can't do this. So

68
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: we were going to leave and head back south and

69
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,480
Speaker 1: find a different place. We couldn't get the car started

70
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 1: because the oil was too thick. Come on, that's too much. Okay,

71
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 1: that's too much. So that's thanks. That's Green Bay. And

72
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 1: then went off southwest. Right, Bill, that's exactly right. Okay,

73
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: all right, Well let's go and enough story time in

74
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 1: Green Bay. We can save that for a week ten

75
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 1: of the season. I was going to ask him if

76
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 1: he ever played a memorable game in Green Bay. I

77
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 1: played walking, but it was not. Nothing memorable was eighty four?

78
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,239
Speaker 1: We were horrible. They were horrible. Okay, But you played

79
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 1: in Milwaukee, Uh, No, eighty nine, Maybe it was ninety

80
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 1: And definitely in ninety nine, Cowboys played in Milwaukee at

81
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:19,720
Speaker 1: County Stadium, where the side teams were on the same sideline, yeah,

82
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,919
Speaker 1: eighty nine, because you would remember Milwaukee because the benches

83
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 1: were all on the same side. It was like the

84
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 1: old Minnesota Stadium, right Baseball Park. So all right, So

85
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 1: you know, one of the interesting things when you look

86
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 1: at the schedule leaks, which some of these I think

87
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:41,280
Speaker 1: are probably right on um. For instance, the it's reported

88
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 1: out there that Cincinnati might be coming here on Thanksgiving

89
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 1: and that Tampa might be in the month of November.

90
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 1: In Green Bay. It's already out there. It's in November.

91
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,840
Speaker 1: The d I was thinking, you know, it seems like

92
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 1: every year the month of November. And it's not just

93
00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 1: because the Cowboys have the Thursday game in November, where

94
00:05:59,920 --> 00:06:02,920
Speaker 1: you're have a packed in schedule where you're going to

95
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,040
Speaker 1: play three games in however many days and that sort

96
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 1: of thing, but it's it always seems like the schedule

97
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: is a little tougher in that stretch of the season.

98
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 1: It is. And you know why that is because they

99
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: compress the games. No, it is not because I'm not

100
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 1: talking about because of the calendar. I'm talking about the opposition.

101
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 1: The reason is November is a ratings month for the

102
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 1: TV and TV ratings month for the TV networks, and

103
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 1: when you see the networks, they're picking, Okay, I want

104
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 1: that game for sure, and they're gonna put that game

105
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 1: for sure in November when the it's a key TV

106
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 1: ratings month. And so the Cowboys being America's team, they

107
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 1: get they're one of the top picks obviously for the

108
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 1: TV networks. And so you're going to have more often

109
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 1: than not, the Cowboys having a tougher opposition, a tougher

110
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: schedule opposition wise in November then other months, so the

111
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 1: season are like last year when it was Kansas City

112
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 1: on Sunday, Vegas on Thanksgiving, New Orleans the following usually

113
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 1: you got pills the Philadelphia game or early in November

114
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 1: also when and so so anyway, when I see these

115
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 1: schedule leaks and I'm seeing, okay, it looks like Green, well,

116
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 1: for sure, we know we know that the Green. And

117
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 1: then if if Tampa Bay in Cincinnati or in the

118
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 1: month of November, well that's the reason why, because TV

119
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: networks want those matchups in that month. Yeah, somebody say,

120
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 1: how how does this stuff get out? I said, the

121
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 1: US Supreme Court can't keep us secret. Do you think

122
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:43,440
Speaker 1: the NFL can? Goodness, but this kind of You know,

123
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 1: it doesn't explain it because we can see it happening.

124
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 1: Cowboys always start off fast, I mean in the not

125
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:53,239
Speaker 1: so good years, and we end up kind of starting

126
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 1: a bit towards the end of the season. That's not

127
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 1: just because the competition is good, but it's the scheduling

128
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 1: as well. So you have to put all that together

129
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 1: and we have to be ready for that as a team.

130
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 1: We have to practice in that manner. We have to

131
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 1: plan in that manner. Our game plan has to be

132
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,239
Speaker 1: called in that manner. I think that's why we're holding

133
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 1: back on our best plays, you know, waiting. You know,

134
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: we're gonna wait till we have to play these important games,

135
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 1: wait till the playoffs. We're gonna save all these goods.

136
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: Get the other steps. Yeah, we didn't do that. I mean,

137
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: well it never came out. So this year when it

138
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 1: comes to and we already knew this, right because we

139
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:36,319
Speaker 1: know who opponent's plan, right, the Cowboys and Washington are

140
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 1: tied for the weakest strength of schedule this year. Weakest

141
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 1: the teams their plan have a four sixty two winning percentage.

142
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 1: And tell me who the third weakest. In the fourth

143
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: weeks started the Giants and the Eagles. Now, why do

144
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 1: you think this is? Because they play each other and

145
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 1: their records were so bad and I saw that as

146
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 1: you go out though, Well no, no, that's my point.

147
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:09,680
Speaker 1: So it's offset by they have to play five games

148
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: against seven of the other division winners, right, so it

149
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: doesn't got to play both teams from the Super Bowl. Um,

150
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:29,679
Speaker 1: you got to play the Super Bowl champions and so yeah,

151
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 1: and I figured out eight games against teams that were

152
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 1: had winning records, eight games too, you know Philadelphia barely right,

153
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:45,960
Speaker 1: nine and eight. And then they play three of the

154
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 1: top five teams that had winning records in I mean,

155
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 1: the best records in the league. But the other problem

156
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,880
Speaker 1: is they also have to play four of the five

157
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,560
Speaker 1: worst teams in the league. Because of the schedule. They

158
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:05,319
Speaker 1: got to play Detroit three, thirteen and one. They played

159
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 1: two games against the Giants four and thirteen. They play

160
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 1: Houston four and thirteen and Jacksonville three. We play Houston,

161
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 1: Jacksonville and Detroit. Yes, we got the NFC North and

162
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 1: the AFC South, right, and so by the rotation, just

163
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:30,440
Speaker 1: because they've got to play the corresponding teams that finished

164
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:36,440
Speaker 1: first in the divisions, that they're not playing Green Bay

165
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 1: in the Rams. It didn't equal. It didn't be Tampa

166
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 1: Bay in the RAM. I mean Tampa Bay. Yeah, it's like,

167
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:49,800
Speaker 1: oh so it's it's not as easy as it looks.

168
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:53,679
Speaker 1: And then the crossover. The seventeenth game is against Cincinnati, right,

169
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 1: so and they were only ten and seven. Yeah, all right.

170
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 1: And just as a matter of review, just as we

171
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 1: lead up, this is our pregame show for the sketch

172
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 1: place the opponents that we know in the home and

173
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 1: away the away outside of the NFC East teams, the

174
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:17,959
Speaker 1: away games for the Cowboys are at Tennessee, at Jacksonville,

175
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 1: at the Rams, at Minnesota, and at Green Bay. So

176
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:28,840
Speaker 1: those are your five road games. Think about that. At Tennessee,

177
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 1: at Jacksonville, at the Rams, at the Vikings, at the Packers.

178
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:39,439
Speaker 1: What do you hope to go? I mean there's only

179
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,840
Speaker 1: one that you say, well, okay, Jacksonville, right, and that

180
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 1: sounds like it might be the opener. Um, Jacksonville is

181
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: the open and you want to get off to a

182
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 1: good start in Jacksonville. I'm not saying it is. I'm

183
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:57,839
Speaker 1: just saying, hey, man, let's take a road trip for

184
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,200
Speaker 1: that one. Just the three of us man. We go

185
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:01,679
Speaker 1: there and we just take our shirts off and you

186
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 1: want to drive, you want to drive, kind of be

187
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 1: up there and see will be no one up there

188
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 1: in the top tier of the stands. We opened at

189
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 1: Tampa last year, whynot at Jacksonville this year? Go back

190
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: to Florida. UM home games, Okay, So, but playing at Tennessee,

191
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: at the Rams, at the Packers, and at Minnesota. We'll see,

192
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 1: which is never easy for the Cowboys. So you hope

193
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:32,719
Speaker 1: three and two out of that. Yeah, you'd pay for that. Okay.

194
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 1: Home games, Okay, home games Tampa Bay, Detroit, Chicago, Houston, Cincinnati, Indianapolis.

195
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,440
Speaker 1: You probably would have liked that reversed, right, Go to

196
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 1: those Go to those teams because you know, although I

197
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 1: don't know about home field advantage anymore, I'm running through

198
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:02,199
Speaker 1: them again. You got Indianapolis in Houston, you got Cincinnati,

199
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 1: you got Tampa Bay, Detroit, and Chicago. I think the

200
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 1: Colts game is gonna be a tough game taking place.

201
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: The Colts game is gonna be a tough game. Yeah.

202
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 1: A lot of people think the Colts now with Matt

203
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 1: Ryan at quarterback there, that the Colts are a sleeper

204
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 1: team this year. Well with their running game. They make

205
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,199
Speaker 1: a lot of noise when they were talking about their

206
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:30,719
Speaker 1: running game. So we'll see, we'll see. So what is

207
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 1: what's when you? Okay, what are you looking for when

208
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:39,319
Speaker 1: the schedule comes out? I first look for what's happening

209
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,200
Speaker 1: on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day? And we kind of

210
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:45,199
Speaker 1: know Christmas Day games, we don't have to worry about that.

211
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:49,840
Speaker 1: But Christmas Eve, you want a home game against Philadelphia?

212
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,720
Speaker 1: That would be fine, Okay, care of who it is. Okay,

213
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 1: you want to you want a noon game, Um, that

214
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 1: would be even better. I think you're gonna get a

215
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:01,719
Speaker 1: three twenty five, probably that for your own comfort. Yes, yeah,

216
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,439
Speaker 1: he asked me what I was looking Look, I'm thinking

217
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 1: you're thinking for the Cowboys interest of this team. They

218
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:13,880
Speaker 1: paid the check is shot? That was gonna say, I mean,

219
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 1: and then I look at what's that on your check?

220
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 1: Then I look at I look at what's at Thanksgiving,

221
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 1: and what's immediately before and immediately and then here in

222
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 1: recent years, immediately after has been another Thursday Thursday night game,

223
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 1: and that probably will happen again because they have probably

224
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 1: want them on Amazon Prime. You would think, now, ok yeah,

225
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:43,520
Speaker 1: because it's you actually would want that because otherwise, if

226
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 1: you if they're going to be on Amazon Prime at

227
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 1: another juncture during the season, it's going to screw up

228
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 1: another week because it makes a short week. Yeah, that

229
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 1: means you got too short unless you had that scheduled

230
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 1: after the bye. But the problem is you don't get

231
00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: a break after your short week. You got to play

232
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 1: again before or you get the buy. And then I

233
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 1: look for if there's any uh, like three consecutive road

234
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: games and where because if you got to go coast

235
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 1: to coast a couple and that's happened before. So those

236
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 1: are the things that you normally first looked. Well, I'm

237
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 1: starting to look at things differently because now I don't

238
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 1: know if you've heard the promos, but you know the

239
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:29,400
Speaker 1: Star Tours. Well that's right, that's right. Good about that?

240
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 1: Well we did it. We did it on Christmas Day

241
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 1: last year. See, I look at Christmas Day kind of

242
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 1: ends at noon. Basically Christmas Eve is different to me

243
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: anyway from a traditional stand I remember when they played

244
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 1: away games on Christmas Day, both times in in Phoenix

245
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 1: in Arizona, and it's like I am not waking up

246
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 1: a hotel room Christmas morning, right, so I flew on

247
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 1: my own, uh Christmas Day because they were night night

248
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 1: games in Arizona, and with the time difference, you could

249
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 1: leave at three, you get there at three, and I

250
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: took the red eye back. I only missed one meal.

251
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 1: Let me tell you how big high school football is

252
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 1: here in Texas. For those of you who don't live

253
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: in Texas, this is how big high school football is

254
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,440
Speaker 1: here during the pandemic year twenty twenty. Normally, the high

255
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: school football season ends the weekend before Christmas. It's a

256
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 1: sixth if you go all the way to's ridiculous way,

257
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 1: which ulous it's a you know, they can't figure out

258
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 1: how and these these poor college kids you can't have.

259
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 1: You can't have playoffs, you can't play that many games.

260
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 1: But in Texas high school, if you win the state,

261
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 1: if you play in a state championship game, you're playing

262
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 1: a sixteen game schedule and that doesn't count the two scrimmages.

263
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 1: You head back at August, try to go to school.

264
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:05,679
Speaker 1: But during the pandemic, okay, the schedule got all pushed

265
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,679
Speaker 1: back and so the actually the state championship games were

266
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 1: played in January, so it came down to Christmas weekend

267
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: in Christmas. I guess fell on a Friday that year,

268
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 1: two years ago, And they actually played high school football

269
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 1: playoff games at eight o'clock on Christmas Eve night here

270
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,400
Speaker 1: at over in All, and everyone was in their houses

271
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,239
Speaker 1: watching the game, or they were at they were at

272
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:35,360
Speaker 1: the stadium, right. Yeah, that's how big high school football

273
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 1: is here. So so any complaints mickey about Cowboys playing

274
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: at three twenty five on Christmas Eve, you don't want

275
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:42,920
Speaker 1: to hear about it. Yeah, And by the way, there's

276
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 1: a difference, you know, you Caucajun people, you know, y'all,

277
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:51,920
Speaker 1: y'all have done at noon. We drag ours out Christmas Day.

278
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,440
Speaker 1: I go home like two in the morning to twenty six.

279
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,920
Speaker 1: That's how we do it. That's the way you ought

280
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 1: to do it. Yeah, what it should be done. Well,

281
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see it. By the way, So

282
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 1: this is one other the big days of the year

283
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:11,440
Speaker 1: for you. One other, one other, Yes, it is one other. Note.

284
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 1: Teams with the hardest schedules like that had the hardest

285
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 1: schedule from twenty sixteen. On twenty sixteen, the forty nine

286
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:29,439
Speaker 1: ers and the Falcons tied for the worst record the

287
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:35,119
Speaker 1: year before forty nine Ers. No, I'm sorry, Yeah, they

288
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: had the hardest schedules the year before, forty nine Ers.

289
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 1: The next year in twenty sixteen, went two and fourteen.

290
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:48,199
Speaker 1: Falcons ended up losing the Super Bowl. In twenty seventeen,

291
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:52,159
Speaker 1: the Broncos went five and eleven. In twenty eighteen, the

292
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:56,159
Speaker 1: Packers went sixty nine and one. In twenty nineteen, the

293
00:18:56,280 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 1: Raiders went seven and nine, the Patriots in twenty twenty

294
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,760
Speaker 1: went seven and nine, and then in twenty twenty one,

295
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,720
Speaker 1: the Steelers lost the wild card game to Candas. So

296
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:10,399
Speaker 1: those the teams that had the best record, the hardest,

297
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 1: hardest schedules get coming into that season, right, They were gaps,

298
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 1: which doesn't relate it all to the Cowboys this year.

299
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,640
Speaker 1: So tell us tell us the one with the easiest,

300
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,880
Speaker 1: because the Cowboys supposedly have the easiest schedule. So check

301
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: this out. Twenty sixteen Packers ten and six lost the NFC.

302
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:32,719
Speaker 1: Up you go. Twenty seventeen Colts went four and twelve,

303
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:36,080
Speaker 1: so they must have been really bad. Twenty eighteen, the

304
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:40,200
Speaker 1: Texans went eleven and five and lost the wild card.

305
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:44,920
Speaker 1: Kay works twenty nineteen and Washington went three and thirteen

306
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:49,679
Speaker 1: and missed the playoffs, and they weren't and they weren't

307
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 1: that good in twenty eighteen, by the way, so uh

308
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:58,159
Speaker 1: where am I at? Twenty twenty the Ravens win eleven

309
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:02,920
Speaker 1: and five, and and in twenty twenty one the Eagles

310
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:06,639
Speaker 1: went nine to eight. So the majority of the teams

311
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 1: that had the easiest schedule ended up, especially in even

312
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 1: number of years like this year, playoff games and even

313
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:19,520
Speaker 1: number Yeah, I didn't think about there. But the problem

314
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,360
Speaker 1: with that for the Cowboys is Washington also has the

315
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,000
Speaker 1: easiest schedule, so that could apply to Washington. Maybe they'll tie, right,

316
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 1: all right, that's a little preview of the NFL schedule.

317
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 1: We got something else to preview when we come back

368
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:31,719
Speaker 1: going through the minds of the rookies that are headed

369
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:35,680
Speaker 1: to the Star in Frisco today, Everson? As a rookie,

370
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:40,240
Speaker 1: You're you're arriving on campus for the first time at

371
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:44,159
Speaker 1: an NFL training site. What's going through your mind as

372
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 1: a rookie? I was. I was pissed, first of all,

373
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:52,359
Speaker 1: because you weren't drafting. Yes, I'm very upset. Driving up there,

374
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:54,119
Speaker 1: I was very upset. Of course, I came from my

375
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:56,159
Speaker 1: mom's house, so I just had to drive up the

376
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 1: street in my little Mustage seventy two. By the way,

377
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:01,240
Speaker 1: you didn't have to ride You didn't ride your bike. No,

378
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 1: that would have center back holding up center block holding

379
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:05,439
Speaker 1: up the back of my front seat. So as I'm

380
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 1: driving up there, I'm thinking to myself, I got to

381
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:09,639
Speaker 1: see what these guys look like. I just want to

382
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,520
Speaker 1: see my fellow dbs and see what they look like. Man,

383
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:14,960
Speaker 1: I was so upset. I was so upset. So the

384
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 1: first drill and this was good back Forrest Lane. Yes, yeah,

385
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 1: we weren't even in the Valley ranch yet. No, nor

386
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 1: how many had drive round the street those two miles,

387
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 1: how many many? How many undrafted rookies were at that

388
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 1: new think if you had to ask, we had twenty

389
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,960
Speaker 1: five rookie dbs, So I would imagine twenty five just

390
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:40,040
Speaker 1: a DBS. Yes, yes, so I'd imagine you had twenty undrafted.

391
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,920
Speaker 1: Vince Skillings was drafting the third round. Uh, I can't

392
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 1: even I think it may have been twenty three of

393
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 1: us were undrafted. I mean but at that time they

394
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 1: didn't have any any cornerbacks, you know how that was well, no,

395
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 1: you weren't really hit bill, No, but but they had

396
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,919
Speaker 1: drafted something they didn't really pan up. The first draft

397
00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:02,400
Speaker 1: choice was a third round and that was Vince Skillings

398
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:06,239
Speaker 1: from Ohio State, the first corner cornerback. Yeah, but he

399
00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 1: was the first draft pick for the Cowboys. They didn't

400
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 1: have a first and second round pick. No, I thought

401
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:15,399
Speaker 1: Howard Richards was I'm sorry, I'm thinking the first defense

402
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 1: yeah yeah, yeah, and Vince Skillings was the first one.

403
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,880
Speaker 1: He was sixth round? Was he six or sixth round? Yea?

404
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:27,920
Speaker 1: So wait wait, that was the first defensive back. Vince

405
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:32,640
Speaker 1: Skillings dB Ohio State, sixth round So yeah, Vin Fellows

406
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:35,919
Speaker 1: and Ken Miller. Ron Fellows was seventh round A and

407
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 1: B and Ken Miller. So Vince Skillings did not make

408
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 1: the team. Fellows obviously did make the team. Ken Miller

409
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:44,640
Speaker 1: did not make the team. He was out of Eastern

410
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:48,200
Speaker 1: Michigan and that was it as far as dbs he had.

411
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:51,880
Speaker 1: So he had three dbs drafted in that draft. Did

412
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 1: they tell us they listed Fellows as a dB, Yes,

413
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 1: they did, because he was a wide receiver at Missouri. No,

414
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 1: he came in straight up dB. He did not do

415
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:06,640
Speaker 1: run one pass pattern running backwards. He got there. So yeah,

416
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 1: three draft picks dbs and it could be there. They

417
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,239
Speaker 1: were all corners, yes, okay. And then there were so

418
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:18,200
Speaker 1: there were twenty two others undrafted, Yes, that including Michael

419
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:21,440
Speaker 1: Downs there you go, who also was a could have

420
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 1: rode his bike so practice the cotton, yeah, but no,

421
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:32,880
Speaker 1: not not to the North Side Park. Okay. So if

422
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 1: you if you included all the other positions they brought in,

423
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 1: like fifty undrafted free agents, it was a hundred and

424
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 1: twenty five rookies in camp a training camp or camp

425
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:53,000
Speaker 1: in the spring right after rookie we had a hundred

426
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 1: and twenty five rookies. I don't know what made it

427
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 1: to camp once upon a time. You know, they used

428
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 1: to have the rookies out two thousand Oaks around July fourth.

429
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,520
Speaker 1: We came early, yeah, two weeks early. Basically beat up

430
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,600
Speaker 1: on each other before the veteran Yeah. So when we

431
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 1: came to the rookie camp though, that was still it

432
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:15,680
Speaker 1: was at val Forest Lane first. You know, Tony Hill

433
00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 1: was the only veteran that showed up, and he was

434
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:19,360
Speaker 1: just trying to get loose, you know. I just wanted

435
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 1: to kind of get loose, you know, because he had

436
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:22,159
Speaker 1: the weight problem. He always had a problem with his

437
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 1: waight in the off season. So when I see Tony

438
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:26,639
Speaker 1: Hill there, I get fired up. Man, my hair start

439
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:28,880
Speaker 1: stand up, like man, let me you know, I'm still

440
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 1: I'm alway pissed off. I gotta come up here and

441
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,639
Speaker 1: deal with this free agency crap. I just got eleven

442
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 1: in the section. So now I got up here and

443
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,199
Speaker 1: showed some more stuff. So I jump up here on

444
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 1: Tony Hill, and boy, that's when we first got to

445
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 1: know each other. He shook me down real good. He

446
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 1: shook me down real good because I lined up on him.

447
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,200
Speaker 1: He's like, nah, man, I just want to get some

448

Speaker 1: some work. I'm like, nah, man, you, Tony Hill, you're

450
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:56,119
Speaker 1: He didn't even know of course, Like I want to

451
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:57,399
Speaker 1: be the best. He's like, no, man, you need to

452
00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,639
Speaker 1: back up. Like nah, man, I was on him right,

453
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 1: but he shook me down. I was broke my ankle.

454
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:07,560
Speaker 1: So a most twenty five dbs. Okay, that we're in

455
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 1: that rookie camp, who would you say had the a

456
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:16,399
Speaker 1: personality in the room. No, No, it was not me. No,

457
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 1: I wasn't there yet. I wasn't there. Yea, all my

458
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,560
Speaker 1: anger was inside Okay, Yeah, as I got older, I

459
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,600
Speaker 1: let it outa My anger was getting down off in here.

460
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,440
Speaker 1: That's why. Well, I mean, but got into it. Yeah,

461
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 1: you're getting into it with Tony Hill. Yeah, I'm thinking

462
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 1: when when you one guy in that room who knew

463
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 1: he was gonna make this team, Vince Killings. Really yeah, okay,

464
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 1: he was wrong. I was wrong. So yeah, so you

465
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:45,960
Speaker 1: didn't know you were gonna make the team. You were

466
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,040
Speaker 1: just bound in determining your well, I was bound and

467
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 1: determined about who we knew was gonna make the team

468
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 1: right away. First drill Michael Downs. I mean when he

469
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 1: lined up it's like this guy's from Rice University. I

470
00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 1: mean his arms were like this long. He was lining

471
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 1: up wide receivers. When you get a guy jamming, you

472
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 1: were arms this long. The receivers were like they were

473
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,880
Speaker 1: whipped before the ball was snapped. And he was the

474
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:14,640
Speaker 1: guy you could tell the guy every time. All right.

475
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 1: So there was a wide receiver taken in the second

476
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 1: round of that draft, Doug Donald. Doug Donald, dude. So

477
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 1: when you lined up against Doug Donald, I wanted to

478
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 1: tear him up. No a matter of fact, we went

479
00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 1: at it all off season. Uh. It was actually illustrated.

480
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 1: Uh and one article about me and Doug and the

481
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 1: struggles that we had, and they they they had an

482
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:44,440
Speaker 1: article just a little depiction about how our one matchup

483
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 1: went on that particular day and it was very content,

484
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,240
Speaker 1: hot and contested. It was just a curve out. But

485
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:52,280
Speaker 1: I mean he and I were going at it like

486
00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 1: like that was the only bone in the yard. We

487
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 1: were a couple of pit bulls or something. TI we

488
00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 1: know that when it called dougla Doug my dude. Man,

489
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,320
Speaker 1: that was my dude. So how many was it twelve

490
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,720
Speaker 1: rounds that year? Twelve rounds? Okay, they had seventeen was

491
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 1: back rookies. So did when they signed you, like did Gil?

492
00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 1: I don't know who signed you. I think it was Jeff.

493
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 1: I think came out okay because a lot of times

494
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:20,760
Speaker 1: Gil would go tell the guy, yeah, you're you're our

495
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 1: top guy at that position, top the guild on the phone,

496
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 1: and they would tell you you were to get top

497
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: guy at the position then that they'd bring in twenty

498
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 1: more at the same Now, now that's what they told

499
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,840
Speaker 1: my strong safety of Grambling. His name was Robert Salter,

500
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 1: and Robert Salter got here and he saw all those rookies.

501
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 1: He shut it down. No, he shut it down. He

502
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 1: did not participate in any drill. So that's how disheartened

503
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,920
Speaker 1: it was. You know, you can tell somebody something, they

504
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:50,160
Speaker 1: believe you, they trust you, right, So this guy's trusting

505
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 1: Gil bred that he told him the truth. And I

506
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 1: don't know why we call them honeybad. I don't know

507
00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:57,680
Speaker 1: why honeyball I thought that. But once he came too camp,

508
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 1: he never participated in one drill. You you're like, you

509
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 1: do your drill, you go to the back of the

510
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 1: line and you're like, hey, man, go ahead. He's like, nah, man,

511
00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 1: you go ahead. He told everybody to go ahead. He

512
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:13,840
Speaker 1: never participated in one drill. Drew. Drew told me when

513
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:17,800
Speaker 1: they signed him, uh, that they were he was the

514
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 1: top wide receiver they were signing. Then he got here

515
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:24,440
Speaker 1: and there were twenty twenty five more wide receivers. The

516
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,480
Speaker 1: only time I talked with Gil, I got fifteen hundred

517
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:29,480
Speaker 1: dollars signing balls. I tried to get on the phone

518
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 1: to give him up into two thousand. That was it.

519
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:34,720
Speaker 1: Then he's like, nah, did you got what you got?

520
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 1: That was it. That was my only conversation that I

521
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 1: had with Gil over the phone at glamblet So. In

522
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,800
Speaker 1: that nineteen eighty one draft, there were fourteen draft picks

523
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 1: and only six of the draft picks made the team.

524
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:47,800
Speaker 1: Six out of the point. It was his fault. Yeah,

525
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 1: Michael down Man, Michael, Mike mess it up, scraddling and

526
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: how man interceptions. You have your rookie year from where

527
00:31:56,640 --> 00:32:00,680
Speaker 1: they were in the postseason, post season through the postseason

528
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 1: sixty it was thirteen. I always want to count the preseason.

529
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:11,640
Speaker 1: Two preseason games are extremely important for rookies. Yeah, day

530
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:15,280
Speaker 1: I mean and undrafted. I mean, when these guys are

531
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:18,080
Speaker 1: done with their little deal. They come out for one series,

532
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:22,600
Speaker 1: and man, it was intense the fourth quarter. No one's

533
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 1: watching but the guys that need it. It's extremely intense.

534
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 1: I can't get beat. I gotta do everything right, you know,

535
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 1: because Gene Stalin is waiting over there with the dog

536
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 1: OneD hatchet way to cut and so thirteen picks regular

537
00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 1: season and postseason for the undrafted rookie in nineteen eighty one.

538
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 1: So he obviously convinced this organization that that cornerback position

539
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 1: was no longer a need, right, No, nineteen eighty two

540
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:55,600
Speaker 1: first round draft pick Rod Hill cornerback. Why were they

541
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 1: so thirsty for see? They thought I made it look easy, Stags,

542
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:02,440
Speaker 1: so we just get it look easy. It must be easy. Ever,

543
00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 1: so Wallas could do it. He just came from Gramley.

544
00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 1: Where is that gambling? I don't even know where that is.

545
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:09,880
Speaker 1: They took another quarterback in the fourth round, somebody named

546
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 1: Brian Carpenter out of Michigan. That he didn't the next year,

547
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:14,600
Speaker 1: he didn't even know. He didn't make the team either.

548
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:16,960
Speaker 1: So you just think about they for some reason. I

549
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,560
Speaker 1: don't think Gill believed in what he was doing. You

550
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 1: didn't believe himself. You keep you keep trying to make

551
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:24,280
Speaker 1: up for the two free ages that you signed. We're

552
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:27,080
Speaker 1: up are setting the dog on League on five. Mike's

553
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 1: got seven picks in nineteen eighty one, ain't got I

554
00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:32,720
Speaker 1: don't know how many tackles over one hundred plus. Look

555
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:37,360
Speaker 1: who they played in the preseason. Yeah, green Bay was first,

556
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 1: was it really? Yeah? Home game, We're gonna check him.

557
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 1: We're gonna check him. So home game, Yeah, home game, yep,

558
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:48,200
Speaker 1: green Bay. That's why Mike, Mike blotted the punk, I

559
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 1: got the touchdown. This stuff, man, I don't forget this stuff.

560
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 1: This is very calculating. I mean we first road game first,

561
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:01,800

571
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:41,080
Speaker 1: convinced Cavon Thibodeau is gonna make it. Well, I don't know.

572
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,279
Speaker 1: I've never seen him play, or if I have, I

573
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 1: didn't know it was him talk a lot. All right,

574
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:50,000
Speaker 1: but you're you're not sold on Oregon players, right? All right?

Speaker 1: had a question about quarterbacks dot or cornerback, quarter quarterback,

578
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:05,640
Speaker 1: signal callers. There was somebody else, yeah, Marcus Mariota. Yeah,

579
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:10,719
Speaker 1: every Okay, there's the other quarterback there. All right, let's

580
00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:17,239
Speaker 1: see other Oregon players. What uh penasul first round pick

581

584
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:36,800
Speaker 1: pretty good. He's one of the reasons that the Cults

585
00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:40,520
Speaker 1: are a sleeper team this year. Okay, all right, Uh,

586
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:44,319
Speaker 1: you got a list of the guys. I got the

587
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:47,840
Speaker 1: whole list. I got every every NFL player from Oregon.

588
00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:51,920
Speaker 1: What about the ones that Cowboys drafted. I see that's

589
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:56,439
Speaker 1: what he That's it all comes back, isn't that where

590
00:35:56,480 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 1: Mitchell was from? Yes, that's right, cornerback. You know what,

591
00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:06,440
Speaker 1: he's still playing Terrence Mitchell. And but Cowboys traded him

592
00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:09,000
Speaker 1: away Kansas City. Then he wound up in Cleveland and

593
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:13,000
Speaker 1: he's put together a nice little career. Terrence Mitchell. He

594
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 1: was a guy though that I thought maybe Everson was

595
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:19,520
Speaker 1: like him. Yeah, because he shows up rookie and he

596
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:23,879
Speaker 1: had he training camp. He had a cockiness about him

597
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:27,799
Speaker 1: as he when he training camp, training camp, and the

598
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:31,399
Speaker 1: defensive back coach was trying to explain something to him

599
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:35,239
Speaker 1: and what to do with technique, and the guy who

600
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 1: was like a was he like six seventh round, I

601
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 1: don't remember. He was like yeah, it was late and

602
00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 1: he listened and I'm standing right there on the sideline

603
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,480
Speaker 1: and he goes, well, coach, this is the way I

604
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:50,360
Speaker 1: like to do it. And I'm going okay, bad answer.

605
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:54,759
Speaker 1: And he turned out to be real good eventually, but

606
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 1: not with the Cowboys seventh round pick in twenty fourteen.

607
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:03,640
Speaker 1: And yeah, he was a he's practice squadter his first

608
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 1: year in twenty fourteen, and he was on the Ruck

609
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:09,120
Speaker 1: and then he went to the Bears, came back to

610
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:12,000
Speaker 1: the Cowboys in twenty fifteen, and then he ended and

611
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:19,000
Speaker 1: then he Houston and then Kansas City, Cleveland, Houston. Now

612

613
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:23,920
Speaker 1: line here we are eight years later and he's still

Speaker 1: still playing Yeah, yeah, well I mean jes because he's

616
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 1: from Oregon? Linebacker? Oh? Back in the eighties, right for

617

Speaker 1: the Cowboys for more? Well, it should be on your list. Well, no,

Speaker 1: Mike Walter. Yeah, second round pick in nineteen eighty three.

621
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:55,360
Speaker 1: There was another one, or maybe maybe there was exactly

622
00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:58,319
Speaker 1: built he was. He was a good looking kid, defensive end.

623
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:01,640
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm trying to for somebody they were real high

624
00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 1: on and never panned out. M we'll think about that

641
00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:06,479
Speaker 1: three simple factors. The crease in his hat, the bend

679
00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:36,960
Speaker 1: look for the first time. Now they may not be

682
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:49,440
Speaker 1: they scaled it down because this is an orientation program, right,

683
00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 1: because they realized that these guys, especially the guys that

684
00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:56,960
Speaker 1: were like draft choices, they were all doing getting ready

685
00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 1: for the draft, right, getting ready for the combine. And

686
00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:03,480
Speaker 1: they came out here and none of them were in

687
00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:06,840
Speaker 1: really good shape because they were just practicing their forty

688
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:09,359
Speaker 1: times and how high they could jump and how high

689
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:11,960
Speaker 1: they could leap and or how far they could leave.

00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:27,920
Speaker 1: basketball game, he won't make it. I mean they used

695
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,319
Speaker 1: to come out here. They would come out here with

696
00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:34,000
Speaker 1: their helmets on, and and you know when, I mean,

Speaker 1: and that, you know, the contact, and they were getting

700
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:45,840
Speaker 1: more muscle aches and pains. And I remember Patrick Crayton's

701
00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:50,520
Speaker 1: rookie year mini camp and he shows up. Parcels is

702
00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:54,440
Speaker 1: here and the first day I was like, well, this

703
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:58,319
Speaker 1: guy's pretty good. The second day he's not moving very well.

704
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 1: Well he velop I believe it was plantar fasciitis. I

705
00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:07,879
Speaker 1: remember that right. And and the next day he's out

706
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:11,120
Speaker 1: there trying to and it's like I remember telling him, I,

707
00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:13,520
Speaker 1: so what are you doing? I said, I heard you

708
00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:15,960
Speaker 1: had this and he goes, yeah, he goes, but you

709
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:18,640
Speaker 1: think I'm gonna let Bill Parcels think I can't do this,

710
00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:22,759
Speaker 1: and he pushed through it, and then it was you know,

711
00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:26,799
Speaker 1: he had to basically suck it up and rehab so

712
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 1: he'd be ready for training camp. But he knew coming

713
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:34,319
Speaker 1: from what was it, Northeastern Oklahoma, some double you can't

714
00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:37,239
Speaker 1: be hurt when you come from Northeast double double, directional

715
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:44,640
Speaker 1: central M on the end of the yeah, Northeastern Oklahoma

716
00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:49,840
Speaker 1: State A and M. Yeah, and he made it school

717
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 1: of Technology. Yeah, okay, So I've got one for you,

718
00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:58,920
Speaker 1: all right. It's a sleeper. Okay, that's what I want

719
00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:00,759
Speaker 1: to hear. I want to hear a sleep. So and

720
00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:04,040
Speaker 1: it's only on a tryout basis. Oh, I don't like

721
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:08,040
Speaker 1: that part of it. The guy's name is Simon Mathieson.

722
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:13,799
Speaker 1: Simon Mathison. He's a kicker. Oh yeah, that sounds like

723
00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:17,920
Speaker 1: a kicker's name. Now wait yeah, and talking about I

724
00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:24,880
Speaker 1: thought you were going to talk now wait talking about directional.

725
00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:31,360
Speaker 1: They don't have a kicker. So there'll be three of

726
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:35,600
Speaker 1: them here, right, Simon Mathieson, how do you go ahead

730
00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:48,680
Speaker 1: I got it right here, you can read it. Okay,

731
00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:52,839
Speaker 1: I'm looking him up. He's from Northwestern State. He's from

732
00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:58,200
Speaker 1: Northwest Missouri State, A and M Technology. Now wait, he

733
00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:05,359
Speaker 1: his last year there, I was twenty sixteen. Whoa, and

734
00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:10,080
Speaker 1: he has not been in an NFL camp since, but

735
00:45:10,200 --> 00:45:17,600
Speaker 1: he went to He's from Denmark, Denmark, that's right. And

736
00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:24,080
Speaker 1: then he came it's probably Simone Simone, not Simon uh

737
00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:33,239
Speaker 1: any any right, he actually hooked up with uh um

738
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:40,319
Speaker 1: oh shoot Beggen No, no, wow, Martin Anderson. Oh, there

739
00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:43,480
Speaker 1: you go. Because he's from He's a David kicker, right,

740
00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:46,480
Speaker 1: Martin was big at him. But he didn't get drafted,

741
00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:51,440
Speaker 1: he didn't get invited to a camp. But he started

742
00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:55,920
Speaker 1: working for a company called track Man, and they are

743
00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:59,800
Speaker 1: the company director of operations and sales for track Man,

744
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:04,120
Speaker 1: And that's the company that came up with the tracking

745
00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:06,960
Speaker 1: the golf shots. You know how you see on TV

746
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:09,600
Speaker 1: and they know, you know, you see the laser thing

747
00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:13,600
Speaker 1: or whatever. Well, they developed a football program for kickers

748
00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:21,480
Speaker 1: to judge their leg strength, leg speed, the lift on

749
00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:25,400
Speaker 1: the ball, and how far the ball would have gone.

750
00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:30,240
Speaker 1: On a field goal right, and NBC brought it into

751
00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:34,280
Speaker 1: their Sunday night football broadcast and for the first time

752
00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:37,880
Speaker 1: they used it at the Super Bowl this year. And

753
00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:41,040
Speaker 1: he was the guy that would go to the stadiums

754
00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:44,680
Speaker 1: and set up the tracking devices and to make sure

755
00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:47,799
Speaker 1: it was working. He would kick and people saw him

756
00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:51,359
Speaker 1: kick and they're going, well, why aren't you kicking? You're

757
00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:54,560
Speaker 1: an awfully good kicker. So the Cowboys, I guess, heard

758
00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:58,760
Speaker 1: about it and Baltimore was going to bring it into

759
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:03,080
Speaker 1: their system and you to judge kickers, and he's going

760
00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:07,240
Speaker 1: to get a tryout. Wow about that. The only kickers

761
00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:09,520
Speaker 1: can be that old and still come back twenty eight

762
00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:13,720
Speaker 1: or something. Well, that's the old. No, it's actually pretty young.

763
00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:17,040
Speaker 1: So it's an interesting story. I don't know if the

764
00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:19,120
Speaker 1: guy can still kick. But he was pretty good at

765
00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:25,080
Speaker 1: Northwest Missouri State. He kicked. He kicked for there. In

766
00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:29,360
Speaker 1: his four years there, they won three Division two championships. Okay,

767
00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:32,080
Speaker 1: and do you have anything to do with that? I

768
00:47:32,080 --> 00:47:37,759
Speaker 1: don't know if he had any winning kicks. He showed up.

769
00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:41,239
Speaker 1: He showed up as a walk on wide receiver in

770
00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:43,920
Speaker 1: the middle of his freshman year. You know, he was

771
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:48,200
Speaker 1: a soccer player at soccer player in Denmark, and they

772
00:47:48,239 --> 00:47:52,040
Speaker 1: saw him messing around kicking, and halfway through the season

773
00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:55,040
Speaker 1: they were going into a game and I think the

774
00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:57,200
Speaker 1: kicker got hurt and the coach went up to him

775
00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:01,520
Speaker 1: and said you're up, and handed up his freshman year,

776
00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:06,320
Speaker 1: making ten of ten. I've heard stranger stories, so stranger

777
00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:09,960
Speaker 1: success stories hopefully. So it'll be interesting to see him kick.

778
00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:13,480
Speaker 1: Okay'll be looking forward to that those preseason games that

779
00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:15,880
Speaker 1: we'll find out about that if he makes, going to

780
00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:17,759
Speaker 1: be featured. If he makes, let's go out of the

781
00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:21,160
Speaker 1: sideline now and Mickey Spagnola, we'll tell the story of

782
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:25,319
Speaker 1: some old mouthless and it'll be the bell and it'll

783
00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:29,080
Speaker 1: be the best story you get to you, by the way,

784
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:31,239
Speaker 1: all right, if they would ever come to me on

785
00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:36,120
Speaker 1: the sideline. Yeah, that's right. Um, that's another story. Are

786
00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:38,360
Speaker 1: you working the sidelines for you? No? I used to

787
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:48,799
Speaker 1: be like, wow, they're really kind of digging them all right.

788
00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:50,799
Speaker 1: Ever since I got a cornerback for you that would

789
00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:54,800
Speaker 1: be the draft pick out of Fresno State, Duran Bland. Okay,

790
00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:59,080
Speaker 1: you need to check out Duran Duran Bland. That's cool.

791
00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:01,120
Speaker 1: I like some of the video of him. Yeah you can.

792
00:49:01,320 --> 00:49:03,520
Speaker 1: You can either come to the practice or you just

793
00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:09,279
Speaker 1: pull him up. Yeah. Yeah, I have to say. Uh,

794
00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:16,239
Speaker 1: this young man Marquis Bell mm hmm oh, okay, is

Speaker 1: he good? Oh well, we haven't seen him yet, but

796
00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:21,600
Speaker 1: I've heard about him. I know the Cowboys like him. Well,

797
00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:24,880
Speaker 1: he was a draftable guy. My college roommate, that's his

798
00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:28,440
Speaker 1: that's his nephew. Really yeah, and that they told me

799
00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:30,560
Speaker 1: to look out for him. You send me his phone up,

800
00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:36,120
Speaker 1: the running back Marquise Bell, safety safety. Okay, yeah, so

801
00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:38,200
Speaker 1: I hadn't called him. I gotta call this guy and

802
00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:41,040
Speaker 1: let him know he's got some some I checked him out.

803
00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:42,840
Speaker 1: I don't have my big green notebook. Why is he

806
00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:54,520
Speaker 1: you know, he had a little demonte Casey in him.

807
00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:58,600
Speaker 1: He played uh Florida and Hill I think, Okay, I

808
00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:01,560
Speaker 1: really yeah, they just gay. I just heard this, Okay,

Speaker 1: I just got this information. So I'm gonna be calling

810
00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:08,000
Speaker 1: them in and invited them over and making sure. Yeah,

811
00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:13,759
Speaker 1: Famu and utter watch out. Nate might have beat you too.

812
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:17,360
Speaker 1: That's right. That's Marquis spell. And it's spelled m A

813
00:50:17,560 --> 00:50:21,600
Speaker 1: r k q u E s E Marquise spell. And

814
00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:25,399
Speaker 1: I know that Cowboys brought it never could spell well.

815
00:50:25,480 --> 00:50:28,960
Speaker 1: So Mike's my roommates spelled it way wrong. You got

816
00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:31,080
Speaker 1: a whole another way. I'm glad how you spelled again,

817
00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:37,200
Speaker 1: m A r k q U E s not spell ahead. Yeah.

818
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:43,480
Speaker 1: What was your roommate's name, Mike Hanes, Oh not? I say,

819
00:50:43,680 --> 00:50:45,719
Speaker 1: wait a minute, I got to say that all the time.

820
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:51,440
Speaker 1: Mike Hayes his name, that's his son, it's his nephew, nephew, nephew. Uh,

821
00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:54,440
Speaker 1: he's got a great shot. I mean, when you you

822
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:58,000
Speaker 1: think about it, Cowboys have not replaced Demante Casey and

823
00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:02,400
Speaker 1: either as a with a draft or in free agency,

824
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:06,520
Speaker 1: and he started fourteen games last year. So I mean

825
00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:09,759
Speaker 1: there's an opportunity for a safety, an undrafted guy in

826
00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:12,680
Speaker 1: the in the Cowboys of a history not just Michael Downs,

827
00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:16,600
Speaker 1: but more recent history of safeties making the roster because

828
00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:18,640
Speaker 1: they don't want to spend a lot of money on safety,

829
00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:21,520
Speaker 1: so they're always looking for somebody well, and in general

830
00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:25,000
Speaker 1: in the NFL, safeties don't quarters. You'll have thirty five

831
00:51:25,040 --> 00:51:28,200
Speaker 1: corners drafted a year, but you'll have twelve safeties. And

832
00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:31,600
Speaker 1: that's funny because the safety to me is much more important,

833
00:51:32,239 --> 00:51:33,680
Speaker 1: you know, when you think of the importance of it.

834
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:37,120
Speaker 1: Was like we talked about the Michael downs Woodson. Just

835
00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:40,720
Speaker 1: being able to survey the field in the proper manner,

836
00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:45,359
Speaker 1: you saved so many touchdowns and create you create opportunities

837
00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:47,640
Speaker 1: for other players to make plays. So to me, that

838
00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:51,200
Speaker 1: safety position is they're very underrated. I don't understand why

839
00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:54,640
Speaker 1: they look at it that way. That's good. That's why

840
00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:58,479
Speaker 1: Tyler Matthew was signing free agencies all over the place.

841
00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:01,719
Speaker 1: He's always gonna have team, got signed by the same

842
00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:05,880
Speaker 1: you see'll see what happens after the draft when guys

843
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:09,479
Speaker 1: look up and they go, I don't have a job. Yeah,

844
00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:11,520
Speaker 1: we got a few of them right here, you know,

845
00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:14,239
Speaker 1: and it's like, Okay, Sandry still has no job. I'll

846
00:52:14,239 --> 00:52:16,879
Speaker 1: sign a one year still does not have a job.

847
00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:20,160
Speaker 1: Now you got Bradberry out there, yeah yeah. And then

848
00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:22,960
Speaker 1: Cowboys gave him a little extra money signing bonus Marquise

849
00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:27,840
Speaker 1: Bell too, so he was a priority free agent. Signing

850
00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:31,680
Speaker 1: another safety, undrafted guy one Yea Thomas out of Georgia

851
00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:36,360
Speaker 1: Tech is another guy that they signed after the Actually

852
00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:41,160
Speaker 1: sometimes that money is their guarantee for the practice squad.

853
00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:45,200
Speaker 1: He's got and they gave him that moment and he's

854
00:52:45,239 --> 00:52:50,399
Speaker 1: got reportedly two hundred guaranteed two hundred thousand guarantee. They

855
00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:54,000
Speaker 1: got money just for wait, say that again, practice Like

856
00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:56,800
Speaker 1: if you don't make the team, yeah, but you're guaranteed

857
00:52:56,840 --> 00:53:00,320
Speaker 1: to make the practice squad, okay, and then whatever because

858
00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:05,120
Speaker 1: they get paid now, Like how much a week it's

859
00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:07,960
Speaker 1: going up? It used to be like seven thousand a

860
00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:10,319
Speaker 1: week or something like that, and I think it's gone

861
00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:12,960
Speaker 1: up to and like thirteen. Oh my god, dude, this

862
00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:18,239
Speaker 1: is so that's so unfair. Multiply seventeen times? Man, can

863
00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:20,040
Speaker 1: we do that? Like go back and sue for more

864
00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:23,279
Speaker 1: money is the other way to do that? Um, but

865
00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:29,279
Speaker 1: it's uh back to um back pay. That's yeah, well

866
00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:34,840
Speaker 1: some back pay go ahead. The obviously the wide receiver

867
00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:38,120
Speaker 1: third round wide receivers are going to be to see him.

868
00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:41,239
Speaker 1: I mean, and because of the position he plays, we

869
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:46,839
Speaker 1: can act South Alabama. Yep, he's and he's got to play.

870
00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:49,960
Speaker 1: They always have some talent coming ont of South Alabama.

871
00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:53,520
Speaker 1: He's got to play immediately right, I would think. So

872
00:53:53,600 --> 00:53:56,239
Speaker 1: he needs to be ready. I mean he needs to

873
00:53:56,280 --> 00:54:02,720
Speaker 1: be able to beat out Um Noah Brown because Michael

874
00:54:02,719 --> 00:54:05,960
Speaker 1: ga Gall gonna be us not playing the first month

875
00:54:06,040 --> 00:54:09,359
Speaker 1: month of the season, and and who knows how well

876
00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:12,480
Speaker 1: he plays when he gets back. Okay, how much he

877
00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:15,280
Speaker 1: can play. And obviously the first round draft picked Tyler Smith.

878
00:54:15,320 --> 00:54:20,719
Speaker 1: He's got to play immediately, right, Okay? Starting guard? Oh? Yes,

887
00:54:57,160 --> 00:55:00,239
Speaker 1: hoping he can transition right now, Yes he is. No

888
00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:04,439
Speaker 1: do what what did you just say he was? I said,

891
00:55:09,680 --> 00:55:13,640
Speaker 1: what guard? Okay? Man, the head the head coach said

892
00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:15,879
Speaker 1: he was a left See that's why he didn't want

893
00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:21,680
Speaker 1: me on want doesn't want the coach said he he

894
00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:26,400
Speaker 1: was a left offensive lineman. Yeah, he's a left sider,

895
00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:29,959
Speaker 1: left off place the left side. He's big enough, he

896
00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:32,960
Speaker 1: plays both positions. They don't even they can line up

897
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:35,919
Speaker 1: someone else somewhere else because he's so big, he's so good.

898
00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:39,480
Speaker 1: He's gonna takes one question. Yes, where is he going

899
00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:47,319
Speaker 1: to play? First? Probably tackle? That's because tire is not

900
00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:50,200
Speaker 1: going to be out there. I told you if okay,

901
00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:53,200
Speaker 1: if they took an offensive lineman in the first it

902
00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:55,920
Speaker 1: has to be a tackle that can play guard. Rookie

903
00:55:56,120 --> 00:55:59,320
Speaker 1: rookie camp. Where is he lining up tomorrow? Rookie camp?

904
00:55:59,480 --> 00:56:03,200
Speaker 1: Because is obviously not out there. Where is Tyler Smith

905
00:56:03,320 --> 00:56:06,839
Speaker 1: gonna line up? Who knows how many tackles and how

906
00:56:06,840 --> 00:56:09,480
Speaker 1: many guards do they have? Yeah, if if you're going

907
00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:13,319
Speaker 1: to talk about rookie camp, he would line up at tackle. Okay, Yeah,

908
00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:15,160
Speaker 1: he would line up a tackle because you don't have

909
00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:17,880
Speaker 1: any other I mean you tackle, look as a tackle,

910
00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:21,839
Speaker 1: you don't have enough guys to play well those who, well,

911
00:56:22,480 --> 00:56:25,400
Speaker 1: Josh Ball would qualify. He'll be Josh Ball. He'll be

912
00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:27,279
Speaker 1: at this camp. He'll be a tackle. And so he'll

913
00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:30,319
Speaker 1: be a tackle. And let me what side, what side.

914
00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:33,080
Speaker 1: Is he playing right? Well, he's been playing right. But

915
00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:38,359
Speaker 1: then well let's well let's go. Then, well let's go.

916
00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:41,720
Speaker 1: He's a tackle. He's a tackle. So there's two tackles

917
00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:46,040
Speaker 1: that you got there. You ain't got any guards. Got

918
00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:52,800
Speaker 1: you got Isaac Allercombe, the international player. He's a Guarday

919
00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:57,640
Speaker 1: you got he was listening? You mean the hispanic dude

920
00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:01,080
Speaker 1: from Massa. Yeah he's still here. Yeah, yeah, but he's

921
00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:03,279
Speaker 1: a free He got a tackle from A and M

922
00:57:03,320 --> 00:57:07,400
Speaker 1: commerce are non Simon. Now, he was listed as a

923
00:57:07,400 --> 00:57:09,000
Speaker 1: tackle when they signed him. I don't know if he

924
00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:10,960
Speaker 1: is a tackle. But it's not like they're gonna play

925
00:57:10,960 --> 00:57:14,080
Speaker 1: football out I know. But this gives us a clue

926
00:57:14,560 --> 00:57:17,360
Speaker 1: where they're gonna be up. Are they going to train

927
00:57:17,480 --> 00:57:19,320
Speaker 1: him as a tackle. I'm not gonna see a why

928
00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:22,480
Speaker 1: receiver that's snapping the ball just because it's rookie camp.

929
00:57:22,840 --> 00:57:26,280
Speaker 1: Come on, man, I still I still carry my victory flag.

933
00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:47,920
Speaker 1: I was correct. Okay, how about the second round draft pick,

934
00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:52,080
Speaker 1: the edge rusher from Ole Miss. Let me see it

935
00:57:52,160 --> 00:57:58,479

936
00:57:58,560 --> 00:58:00,800
Speaker 1: and it's not because it was an out alphabetical who

937

Speaker 1: else second round draft pick will Miss? Is it Sam? Sam? Sam?

938
00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:09,520

939
00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:16,320
Speaker 1: D D D E defensive end. Really d Williams. Yeah,

943
00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:26,439
Speaker 1: He thought he was. I thought he was a linebacker. No, no,

944
00:58:27,440 --> 00:58:30,080
Speaker 1: he was. He played and at Old Miss they played

945
00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:32,400
Speaker 1: a three man front. He was basically a five technique

946
00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:36,040
Speaker 1: defensive end. There he'll be in coming. So I was

947
00:58:36,080 --> 00:58:38,800
Speaker 1: in Jackson, my guys that watched Old Miss all the time,

948
00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:40,960
Speaker 1: and one of my friends was, I think he's a

949
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:45,080
Speaker 1: donor at Old Miss. Uh, they love They thought he

950
00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:50,640
Speaker 1: was really good, uh and struggled against the run. Yeah,

951
00:58:50,680 --> 00:58:56,200
Speaker 1: but uh, Old Mass single season sack records better than

952
00:58:56,280 --> 00:59:02,120
Speaker 1: Randy Gregory. He's he's similar. I don't know if he's better.

953
00:59:05,600 --> 00:59:10,959
Speaker 1: Go watch his film His First Step and and and

954
00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:16,880
Speaker 1: I've noticed that Charles Haley been hanging around here a

955
00:59:16,920 --> 00:59:21,800
Speaker 1: little bit lately. So he's gonna have some great mentor

956
00:59:21,920 --> 00:59:26,120
Speaker 1: out there right for defensive end, pass rushing and Charles

957
00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:31,760
Speaker 1: it'll be. It'll be. Neither did the rest of us,

958
00:59:33,480 --> 00:59:35,680
Speaker 1: but they were, they were really high on this guy.

959
00:59:36,080 --> 00:59:42,760
Speaker 1: So Um he went the junior college route. Um. He

960
00:59:42,920 --> 00:59:48,720
Speaker 1: had a similar upbringing that Dez Bryant had. Um. I

961
00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:51,280
Speaker 1: mean that was part of his bio in the draft

962
00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:59,440
Speaker 1: up process. Removed from his mother and living with grandmother's aunts,

963
01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:06,680
Speaker 1: legal guardian in high school. Um went to Northeast Mississippi

964
01:00:07,360 --> 01:00:12,120
Speaker 1: Junior College I think it is, and then went to

965
01:00:12,160 --> 01:00:16,160
Speaker 1: Old miss and made something out of himself. Good stuff,

966
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:19,960
Speaker 1: all right, anybody else you want to know about, Uh,

967
01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:22,080
Speaker 1: there's all sorts of people. You're probably not going to

968
01:00:22,120 --> 01:00:26,080
Speaker 1: see Daman Clark do too much, right since he had

969
01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:33,120
Speaker 1: the vertebrae fusion surgery that they discovered at the combine,

970
01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:39,000
Speaker 1: So he's probably still five months away. Tight End, the

971
01:00:39,080 --> 01:00:41,440
Speaker 1: fourth round pick. The tight end needs to contribute to

972
01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:44,280
Speaker 1: Jake Ferguson out of Wisconsin. He needs to be the

973
01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:51,120
Speaker 1: second guy. You've got skills. Um, when you're talking Wisconsin, Wisconsin,

974
01:00:51,160 --> 01:00:53,960
Speaker 1: you probably should block, right, Yeah, don't think that's what

975
01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:57,560
Speaker 1: they need that second tight ends because they want to

976

01:02:31,720 --> 01:02:33,720
Speaker 1: down to like three seconds left on the show. Yeah,

1000
01:02:33,720 --> 01:02:35,120
Speaker 1: and I was like, okay, now I got to hold

1001
01:02:35,160 --> 01:02:39,040
Speaker 1: something up. Hopefully they go home. And the same thing

01:02:39,080 --> 01:02:42,200
Speaker 1: happened with the Stars on it. Yeah, what happened? What

1003
01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:46,040

1006
01:02:52,840 --> 01:02:57,280
Speaker 1: don't be afraid to score two goals, okay, because they're

1007
01:02:57,360 --> 01:02:59,560
Speaker 1: leading one to nothing for two and a half and

1008
01:02:59,560 --> 01:03:04,600
Speaker 1: they assumed a defensive posture and you've got to be perfect, right,

1009
01:03:04,800 --> 01:03:08,360
Speaker 1: and they weren't perfect. They scored. This is the playoffs. Yeah,

1010
01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:11,480
Speaker 1: and then they scored again and then the last one

1011
01:03:11,040 --> 01:03:14,840
Speaker 1: open open nets goal. So they got to win on Friday.

1014
01:03:20,440 --> 01:03:25,800
Speaker 1: in fourteen years that the Cowboys, Mavericks, and Stars are

1015
01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:28,600
