I was 10 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:39,000 Speaker 1: on the break with me for a long long time. 11 00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 1: Now he's doing his own thing out in La for Fox. 12 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 1: He's on got his own podcast.

We'll talk Cowboys and Bills. I mean, 15 00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: what a game this is for the Cowboys, What an 16 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 1: opportunity this is for them to keep this thing rolling. 17 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 1: If it felt like, and I'm guilty of this, felt 18 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 1: like when they were five and three, I remember just 19 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 1: kind of pushing they're gonna be ten and three, ten 20 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 1: and three, you can look at the schedule, Boom five 21 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 1: in a row. They're gonna win. Well, here they are 22 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 1: they are. But I felt like I wasn't the only 23 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 1: one that thought that way. But for some reason, we 24 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 1: just kind of stopped right then, like, oh, let's let's 25 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 1: stop at you know, at Buffalo. Well, here we are. 26 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: And not to say the Cots can't win this game, 27 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 1: of course, I mean they can there. I think they're 28 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:26,960 Speaker 1: a better team than Buffalo. But I think that's where 29 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 1: he kind of just drew the line and I did 30 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 1: thinking all right, well, you know, we'll see how things 31 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,960 Speaker 1: go at this point. Uh, and it's gonna be one 32 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:36,559 Speaker 1: of those games. I think it's gonna be a really 33 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,760 Speaker 1: tough game. I think, you know, the Bills are a 34 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: very tough team to figure out, like who are the Bills? 35 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 1: You know, when when Brian brought us always says hey, 36 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: you know, and by the way, his birthday was two 37 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 1: days ago, so happy birthday to Brian. But when he 38 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: always says, hey, the NFL is a strange lady. Strange lady, 39 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 1: this NFL. She lives in Buffalo, or at least this year, 40 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 1: she's renting a place in Buffalo. Because that's pretty much 41 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: what it is is Buffalo is they can be the 42 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 1: best team in the league or and they can play 43 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: up there with with the best home or away, and 44 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 1: then then they'll lose a game, you know, to Denver, 45 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: who's playing pretty well too. But you know they'll lose 46 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: some some games, some some head scratchers as well, so 47 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 1: you never know what you're gonna get. But usually you know, 48 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 1: when Dallas comes to town. I'm sure Buffalo, you know, 49 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: only happens eight years, they'll be uh, they'll definitely be 50 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 1: ready to go, be fired up for that one. All right, 51 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 1: We're gonna do things a little bit different today too. 52 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 1: I mean, we're gonna obviously take the calls, but I 53 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 1: am gonna take a little bit of a break. As 54 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: you see my stack of books, I was talking about 55 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: it for a few weeks. Now I'm gonna do it today. 56 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: We're gonna do a little book review some of my 57 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: favorite books, some some of the books that I've I've written, 58 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 1: some that you know from my friends and uh family, 59 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: So to some of my my favorite books. I'm gonna 60 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: kind of promote that little bit. Who knows if maybe 61 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,079 Speaker 1: it spurs an idea for a Christmas gift? 62 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 5: Who knows? 63 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: All right, let's start though, luck we always do.

Probably you may remember I called a 72 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 7: few weeks ago about the Bills game I went to 73 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 7: where Tony had six turnovers and who came back? So I, uh, 74 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:28,679 Speaker 7: I just wanted to call since it's Buffalo week and uh, 75 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 7: you know, just. 76 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 8: Are you going a little quick with that? 77 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 7: I am not going this week? I am. 78 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 8: I am. 79 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 7: I have plenty of time to talk today because I 80 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 7: am sitting home after I had meniscus clean up yesterday though. 81 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 7: But a couple of quick things I actually forgot to 82 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 7: tell you before that game. I was at the Anchor Bar, 83 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 7: which is famous for inventing the wings. Sure, and who 84 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 7: who rolls in about three hours before game time other 85 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 7: than mister Jerry Jones and sitting there and signing all 86 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 7: kinds of autographs and use the wings? 87 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 3: It was. 88 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 7: It was hilarious. 89 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 1: That's awesome. 90 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 7: A couple of quick things from the yesterday is another 91 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 7: eighty A A little bit of tongue in cheek here, 92 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 7: but hopefully CD changes numbers so that way we can 93 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 7: have three Bryants that wore number eighty eight with Antonio 94 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 7: a few years back, and then we can have Martavius 95 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 7: next year. Well obviously never happened. 96 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, we could all break. 97 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 7: Out our jerseys again and they'd be active. 98 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: Well, I actually saw I was in the pro shop 99 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,159 Speaker 1: the other day and I saw all the eighty eight 100 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: ced Lamb jerseys that are out there, and so for 101 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 1: him to change numbers not going to be not going 102 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 1: to be cheap for him. I think he's good with 103 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 1: where he is right now, and uh yeah, I think 104 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 1: it's cool. Yeah, you're right. Antonio Bryant was one, uh 105 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:55,719 Speaker 1: Jackie Harris tied end from early two thousands, and a 106 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: guy named Ron Sellers I think back in the seventies 107 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: had had a big touchdown catch to beat the forty 108 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: nine ers in the playoffs. He wore eighty eight, but 109 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: obviously the big one right now CD because I mean 110 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: he's about to shatter a lot of these records that 111 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: Irvines have definitely had. 112 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,720 Speaker 7: Absolutely. Well, two more quick things. I did some a 113 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 7: little bit of research. Not saying anything against Jonathan Hankins. 114 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 7: I think he's great and we need him and all 115 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,679 Speaker 7: those things, but I found it interesting. Yes, last week 116 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 7: you're giving up four point six yards per per per 117 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 7: run for the entire game, but after Mozy came in 118 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 7: or after Hankins went out, I should say only three 119 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 7: point three three yards per game on nine attempts. So 120 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 7: that was that was interesting. Hopefully, hopefully we can keep 121 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 7: that up, especially in the cold weather in Buffalo this week. 122 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 7: And then a question for you. We've won the white 123 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:53,919 Speaker 7: helmets a number of times, it's been a while, but 124 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 7: I don't remember ever wearing them with the with the outline. 125 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 7: Has that ever happened. 126 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: Before with the outline? 127 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 7: Yeah, obviously Sunday we will. You know it had it 128 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 7: had the regular star on it, not just the start 129 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 7: with you know, throwback. Have you ever won white helmets 130 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 7: with the outline before? 131 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:15,840 Speaker 1: I don't think so. I'm not I've not seen that 132 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,599 Speaker 1: because I don't think that was the helmet. So I 133 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,359 Speaker 1: think what you know that they and I don't know 134 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: a whole lot about the uniforms. I know you guys 135 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 1: really care about it, but I mean, to be a throwback, 136 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: it's got to be kind of a throwback. And then 137 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: I think you do have an alternate uniform, so I 138 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: don't think they want to dip into an alternate uniform 139 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,799 Speaker 1: and so that that is not the uniform a throwback, 140 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: you know, I mean the regular star on a white helmet, 141 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 1: it would have to be a throwback. But we had 142 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 1: this past week. 143 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 7: Yeah, we had it Sunday, the regular star on. 144 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 1: The white hel Okay, you're asking when, when's the last 145 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: time they've done that? 146 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,159 Speaker 7: I don't, I don't remember. 147 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: I'm ever they started last year. Last year. 148 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 7: We did once last year. 149 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: Okay, one last year. 150 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 7: All right, Cool, that's that's all I got. 151 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:05,279 Speaker 1: Cool, all right, all right. I never understand the uniform craze, 152 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 1: but uh, I don't know. It's a huge deal. I mean, 153 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: fans like love it. They love to know, like they 154 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 1: they ain't good matters. They think, like what they wear 155 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: and all that kind of stuff matters, and maybe it does. 156 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: Maybe it does. I mean I always always heard all 157 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 1: that blue jeans, you know, blue jersey curse back in 158 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: the seventies and eighties. It's like, well, they played on 159 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: the road. I mean it was hard to win on 160 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: the road. It's just like it is now. I mean 161 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 1: seven and o at home, three and three on the road. 162 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, when teams make you wear the blue, 163 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 1: it's probably because it's it's a tough place to play. 164 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: It's not really because of the blue. I don't think 165 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: who knows. All right, Justin in California is our next caller? 166 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 3: He nick? 167 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 9: What's up? 168 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 3: Man? 169 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 8: Hey, good man, I'm good. 170 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 9: I gotta say I've been loving this stretch of winds. 171 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 9: I gotta embrace it all. But I started thinking the 172 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 9: other night. I was watching the Dolphins game and I 173 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 9: see Tyreek go out and the whole offense just turns 174 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 9: to trash, and I'm like, okay. I started thinking about 175 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,119 Speaker 9: our own team, and I was like, all right, well, 176 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 9: is CD or Tyreek? You know, I want to pick 177 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 9: your brain about that. And then I have one more statement. 178 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 9: But if CD was was was to be non existent 179 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 9: in our offense, would that basically crumble our whole offense? 180 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 9: I know, we got a lot of players, a lot 181 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 9: of playmakers, we have cooks. We he's actually like the 182 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 9: quote unquote Tyreek guy that is supposed to, like, you know, 183 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 9: bring speed to our offense. But ty CD seems to 184 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 9: be that dominant force and he seems to be the 185 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 9: one that makes everything happen. So what do you think 186 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 9: were to happen if CD wasn't as dominant as he's 187 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 9: been playing with everyone else just kind of go away. 188 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: Hold on, hell on, let me ask you two different things. 189 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: You're talking about him. No, not on the field or 190 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 1: not catching passes, because two different things. If Tyreek kill goes, 191 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: I mean, if a guy leaves the field, it changes things. 192 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 1: If he's just not getting the ball, but he's still 193 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: demanding double teams and all that attention, then he's still 194 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: doing his job. He's just he's just commanding a double team. 195 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: And you're like, all right, I'm gonna go over here 196 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: and let other you know, other people try to beat you. 197 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 1: Two I mean, two different things. I think they can 198 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: win that way, as long as you know CD's out there, 199 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 1: he's established himself. They want to sell out to stop him. Fine, 200 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:34,440 Speaker 1: you can take him away if you want to, but 201 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 1: it's at at what cost. So but if he's not 202 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,959 Speaker 1: on the field, yeah, I think I think that that 203 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,079 Speaker 1: changes things a little bit. I mean, now now you're 204 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 1: focusing on Cooks and Gallop and Tolbert and ferguson those 205 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 1: guys to make a lot of plays out. I just 206 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 1: don't think he would be the same. I don't know 207 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: how you would expect them to. But I mean there's 208 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: a big oak tree or any kind of piece of 209 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 1: wood you want to knock on, I think I think 210 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 1: let's let's do that. 211 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, I mean, yeah, for sure. 212 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 6: I mean I just think. 213 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 9: Because the Dolphins have you know, basically they have really 214 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 9: good talent too, like in other positions, and it just 215 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 9: it just was not showing up at all. As soon 216 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 9: as Tyreek left the field, it was it was over. 217 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 6: Yeah. 218 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 9: And second second thing is there was a caller yesterday 219 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 9: that said, you know, the look of the Cowboys, you know, 220 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,719 Speaker 9: the way they come out on the field, the the 221 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 9: optics of it, the way they look. They don't look 222 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 9: like that they have that dominant focus. I don't know 223 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 9: if you remember the call yesterday. I want to actually 224 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,439 Speaker 9: say that this is finally, most of this year, I 225 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 9: want to say after the Chargers game or during the 226 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 9: Chargers game. 227 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 4: They have actually had a better. 228 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 9: Look on their face from Afar. They don't have that 229 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 9: we're kind of getting we're kind of from coming from behind, 230 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 9: or it's kind of a close game and we look 231 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 9: sorry type of look on their face. Last year, if 232 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,959 Speaker 9: you remember, they just look like they were in a daze. 233 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 9: If they weren't up ahead instantly, they were just on 234 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 9: the sideline kind of looking up at the scoreboard. And 235 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 9: I know it's just optics and we don't really know 236 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 9: what's going on. But this year is different. They are 237 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 9: bending and not breaking, and they are fighting ever since 238 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 9: that Chargers game, for tooth and nail, for every single 239 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,440 Speaker 9: thing that they have, and I'm actually loving it. So 240 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 9: I don't know what this guy saw in the past. 241 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 9: I was eight years old when they were winning Super Bowls. 242 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 9: I don't really remember, but I just want to say 243 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 9: that they're looking better than ever, especially just to look 244 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 9: on their face. They don't look sorry, and I'll. 245 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 1: Hang up and listen, all right, thank you. Yeah, I 246 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: didn't understand that either, Like I like I said, you know, opinions. 247 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 1: Everyone's got their own opinion on what they see. But 248 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 1: can you imagine if you were like a fan of 249 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,679 Speaker 1: you know, the Panthers, and you're like, I don't know, 250 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:52,319 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know about the record, it's not 251 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 1: that great, but man, we've got the look you look 252 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 1: in their eyes like they are ready to play. I mean, yeah, 253 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:00,440 Speaker 1: I know we've won one game, but we got that look. 254 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 1: I mean, like nobody would care. They'd be like, care 255 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 1: what look you have on your face? I mean, Eli 256 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 1: Manning's going to the Hall of Fame one day. I 257 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 1: mean he looked lost his whole career, but he wasn't, 258 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 1: you know. I mean like, so, I think the results 259 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 1: is kind of what matters there, and you know that's fine. 260 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 1: I mean maybe maybe I didn't understand his point exactly, 261 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: but I think this team has whatever the look is, 262 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: it's working when they get on the field, and that's 263 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 1: obviously what matters the most. All right, Bob in Rio 264 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,719 Speaker 1: Grand Valley, he is our next scholar. Bobod morning, Nick? 265 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 3: How you doing? 266 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 1: But I'm good? How are you doing? 267 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 5: Doing good? 268 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 3: I'm like a lot of Cowboys fan rat Now I'm 269 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 3: a little bit concerned. I think this injury to Jonathan 270 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 3: Hankins that came at a very unfortunate time, and I 271 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 3: don't think the light bulb is stays own all the 272 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:55,080 Speaker 3: time yet for Mazzie Smith. So my concern is, and 273 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 3: my question for you is some of the writers have 274 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 3: referred to a guy that's in the practice squad, big 275 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 3: Fellow by Carl Davis. 276 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: That's right. 277 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 3: What do you know about him? And do you think 278 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 3: this is a possibility that this guy can come in 279 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 3: and really help us. That's my question for you, and 280 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 3: I'll take it off their great question. 281 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: Great question, because that's probably gonna happen, Carl Davis. This 282 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 1: is why they brought him in. So why this is 283 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 1: kind of why the NFL has has changed the rules 284 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: to allow veterans to be on the practice squad for 285 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 1: situations like this, because you get an injury to a 286 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: guy like Hankins and you want to fill it with 287 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 1: you know, you need some help, needs some experience. So yeah, 288 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 1: you could go to get a guy right off the 289 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 1: street like a Carl Davis. You know, but the rules 290 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 1: before he wasn't allowed to be on the practice squad 291 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 1: because he wasn't eligible. But now you can bring a 292 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 1: guy in, you know what, maybe we need him. And 293 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 1: it's been I don't know, six seven weeks. He's been 294 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 1: out there, he's with practicing, he's in football shape, and 295 00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,200 Speaker 1: he's pretty big. He's a big dude. But like he it. 296 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 1: Now you can elevate him if you want to, and 297 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 1: it's perfect because you can keep him on the practice 298 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,719 Speaker 1: squad and elevate him three times. That's probably going to 299 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 1: be about how many weeks you need before Hankins comes back. 300 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: So Carl Davis has played a lot in the league, 301 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,679 Speaker 1: seven eight year veteran, really big guy, can you know, 302 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: eat up some space. That's kind of what they're looking for. 303 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 1: I think Mazzi is still gonna play, Mazie's gonna gonna 304 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: be out there for sure, but still really good opportunity 305 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 1: to see what Carl Davis you know, can do. And 306 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: it's one of those moves that it's why you do it, 307 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: you know. We kind of joke when Stephen Jones says, 308 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: you know, player acquisitions three hundred and sixty five days 309 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: a year, Well, it is, and this is why because 310 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 1: you don't always just you know, you don't always just 311 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 1: react when things happen. It's it's basically it's having a 312 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 1: little insurance, have a little foresight. You know, what if 313 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: if we why don't we get this guy and bring 314 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 1: him in in case case we need him, case Hankins 315 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: goes down, or OsO goes down, or Neville or somebody. 316 00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: We got a guy that we can you know, kind 317 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 1: of learn this system. And here it is, so Carl 318 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 1: Davis will probably be a guy that you'll see at 319 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: elevated this week, maybe not to the roster, but probably 320 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 1: to the practice from the practice squad. I could do 321 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 1: that three times, like I said, So good stuff there, 322 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: all right, Tony in Alexandria, Virginia. 323 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 10: Hey, Nick, am I on? 324 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 1: You are on? What's up? 325 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 6: Are you? 326 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:22,840 Speaker 4: How you doing, sir? 327 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: I'm good? 328 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 5: How are you good? 329 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 8: Hey? 330 00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 10: So, I've been waiting kind of a couple of weeks 331 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 10: to kind of get into this question and wondering because 332 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 10: we've been playing at home for like the last couple 333 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 10: of weeks. But it centers around road trips. And first 334 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 10: of all, Nick, did you I can't remember if you said, 335 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 10: do you play any varsity sports like in high school 336 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 10: or anything? 337 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: Just that curiosity played basketball? 338 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 4: Okay, so did I so? And I played varsity on 339 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 4: my U in my senior year. 340 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 10: And one of the best things in my opinion, that 341 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 10: I like about, you know, being on the varsity squad 342 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 10: was not only you know, actually playing in the game 343 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 10: and winning, but was actually traveling on road trips. And 344 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 10: the way that our school worked is you had the 345 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 10: four teams. You had JV boys or JV girls, JAV boys, 346 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 10: then varsity girls and varsity boys. Well, the way how 347 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 10: it worked is that JV teams would lead like middle 348 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 10: middle to early to mid afternoon travel to the awaye 349 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 10: school because their games would start first, and then the 350 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 10: varsity teams would leave like literally right after school and 351 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 10: take a second bus down to the away school. And 352 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 10: I'll never forget how the look on the faces because 353 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 10: we all be like a shirt and tie when we 354 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 10: walked into the gymnasium and the doors would open, all 355 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 10: the posing fans would be looking at us like, oh, 356 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 10: here comes the varsity team into the you know, into 357 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 10: the gym and stuff. And and I was wondering as 358 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 10: far as it like the road trips and everything, you know, 359 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 10: because I've again wondered about this, like in your experience 360 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 10: since you've been with the Cowboys and through you know, 361 00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 10: various coaches just cares how the road trip experience is. 362 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 10: You know, you guys normally always leave at the same time. 363 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:09,160 Speaker 10: You guys stay at the same hotel. Do you you 364 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,679 Speaker 10: personally have any free time like when you're you know, 365 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 10: when you travel to the way city. And if you can, 366 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 10: you know, maybe distinguish between the coaches because I think, 367 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 10: like with Garrett, I think they had when they traveled, 368 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 10: they had him they had like players wear shirt and 369 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,400 Speaker 10: tie because I always watched the little videos where they're 370 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:29,119 Speaker 10: like walking to the plane and stuff versus now it 371 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:31,639 Speaker 10: looks like it's a more of a relaxed, uh, you know, 372 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 10: outfit that goes when you guys are going to the 373 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,280 Speaker 10: plane to travel. And so I was just wondering if 374 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 10: in your experience, can you touch on that, and maybe 375 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 10: if you have a funny story that you can recall 376 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 10: regarding your road tip. I know Brian Brodus always talks 377 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 10: about and I believe it was a trip from Buffalo 378 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,159 Speaker 10: that they came back where the plane was a bumpy 379 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 10: ride coming back and he's like, Nope, that's it for me, 380 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 10: no more traveling through away game. So anyways, I appreciate 381 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:57,160 Speaker 10: the h I'll hap to listen. 382 00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:57,360 Speaker 5: Thanks. 383 00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 1: Well, I mean that's a whole that's a whole show. 384 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 1: I mean just road trips. I mean I mean stories 385 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 1: and things like that. Yeah, I've got some stories. I 386 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 1: can't tell them all, but yeah, I've got some stories. 387 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I'll try to answer this kind of quickly. 388 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 1: Every coach kind of does things differently, and the coaches 389 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 1: have done things differently. I mean the same coach has 390 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,400 Speaker 1: done things differently. I mean Garrett was here what nine years. 391 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:22,679 Speaker 1: I mean he switched it up and there is no 392 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 1: I mean with the Cowboys, you can't just say you 393 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 1: can't just seeing Montel Jordan all the time and say 394 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,160 Speaker 1: this is how we do it. It doesn't work that way. 395 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: Because you play on Sundays, you play on Thursdays, you 396 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: play on Monday. One year you played on Wednesday night. 397 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,639 Speaker 1: I mean you have to adjust and so to just 398 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 1: have one set of rules like this is this is 399 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 1: how it's gonna be, it doesn't work like that. Now, 400 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,360 Speaker 1: You're right. McCarthy kind of has a little bit more 401 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,920 Speaker 1: of a relaxed fit for them, you know, and they 402 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,439 Speaker 1: have travel suits now and there's been times but it's 403 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: been shirt and tie and you know, the Cowboys. I 404 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 1: don't know what other teams do, but I mean the 405 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 1: Cowboys have they try some some media, not not the writers, 406 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 1: but some of the local media, the TV TV guys, 407 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 1: the cameraman, some of the radio people, so that there's 408 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: you know, and then there's sponsors as well on on 409 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:17,879 Speaker 1: the trip. So you know, it's it varies and it 410 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: also varies. Sometimes you've you've gone straight you know, the 411 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,880 Speaker 1: team goes and practices with a walk through at the stadium. 412 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: That's been kind of rare. Usually you just go to 413 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:30,919 Speaker 1: the hotel and and we don't really say where where 414 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 1: the cowboys are staying. They don't. It's not a public thing, 415 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: but everyone always knows because when we get there, there's 416 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 1: there's a lot of fans there, uh, in the lobby 417 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. So you know, it's I mean, 418 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:48,400 Speaker 1: I'm trying to think, should I tell the image story? 419 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 1: Hold off on that one. There's been Oh it's funny, 420 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: I'll tell the story. So, so my first year with 421 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 1: the team, so second year maybe second year with the 422 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 1: two thousand walking into New York tons of fans and 423 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 1: and there's there's fans lined up on both sides. And 424 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 1: so I'm like twenty four years old. I mean, I'm 425 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:14,159 Speaker 1: just the young guy with this Nike gym bag. Is 426 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 1: my is my travel bag? You know, it's terrible and 427 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 1: uh and Emmett is walking right in front of me, 428 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 1: and Emma's got this really nice, you know, roller bag 429 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 1: or whatever. And he turns He's like, let me see 430 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: your bag. I'm like, let's see what I thought he 431 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:30,719 Speaker 1: wanted me to carry? His bag. It was like, he goes, 432 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 1: let me see your bag, and so he I gave 433 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: it to him. So he's got one bag with his 434 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:36,880 Speaker 1: and then he's got my bag and he walks through 435 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 1: all these people and of course I'm not sure what's 436 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,440 Speaker 1: going on. I don't know if you know what's happening. 437 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:45,160 Speaker 1: Come to find out, Emmitt's turned. He had his hands full, 438 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 1: so everyone's asking for autographs at the moment, he was like, no, 439 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 1: I can't, I got a hands full, and then he 440 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 1: kind of laughed, dropped my bag on the ground and 441 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 1: kind of did this, you know, funny laugh, and he 442 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:56,679 Speaker 1: walked off, and he was like, I probably wasn't the 443 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,120 Speaker 1: first person. He's done that too, you know, And I'm 444 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 1: a young guy, and I'm like, I don't know if 445 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,400 Speaker 1: that was disrespectful or the coolest thing ever. Like, I don't, 446 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 1: I don't really know what happened, but it was kind 447 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 1: of funny. Now, I'll say that Emmett's definitely signed his 448 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 1: share of autographs over the years, and there's a lot 449 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:13,880 Speaker 1: of stories where he does some some really cool things 450 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 1: for fans. But in this particular case, we just got 451 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 1: off the plane. We were going to the hotel and 452 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 1: he was like, he was like, nah, I got my 453 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 1: hands full. So I thought you might have been playing 454 00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,440 Speaker 1: that more of a joke on me than anything else. 455 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: But that's that's about my story there. We can probably 456 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:31,400 Speaker 1: get into road trips later on and maybe a different show. 457 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:34,160 Speaker 1: All right, Bruce and Houston, what's up? 458 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,439 Speaker 4: That's pretty cool. You have to gig immit about that. 459 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 4: Say hey, I appreciate you taking my bag. 460 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, Emma Smith has carried my bags. 461 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:46,400 Speaker 4: So that's that's the first I thought. He's gonna give 462 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 4: you his bag and tell you this. 463 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 1: That's what I thought. I didn't know what was happening. 464 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 1: I really didn't know. 465 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 4: Oh, that's a good story. Thanks for sharing. You know, 466 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 4: the guys, we're talking about Mozzie Smith a little bit. 467 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 4: I'm glad he's getting to play out. 468 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 7: Yeah. 469 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 4: I hope anking is out just a week because he's 470 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 4: really played well this year. But I think it's going 471 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 4: to be good for Mazie. I've been watching him, trying 472 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 4: to zero just on him in, you know, on the 473 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 4: replays and retaping it. But it seems to me, and 474 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 4: I'm no coach, but he's just a little slow off 475 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 4: the snap and it seems like once I'm off at 476 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,360 Speaker 4: theve lineman get their hands on it, you're in trouble 477 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 4: because in Michigan he just he just out muscles everybody. 478 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 4: So but I was thinking too about Jalen Carter and 479 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:34,640 Speaker 4: Jordan Davis. Those guys were higher draft picks than Mozzie 480 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 4: and they didn't really like the world on fire their 481 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 4: first year either, did they? 482 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: Right? 483 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:45,679 Speaker 4: So I don't think so. I mean, and Carter supposedly 484 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:50,120 Speaker 4: was thought to be the maybe yeahber one pick. Wow, 485 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 4: so yeah, So I think, I mean, the fans have 486 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 4: been on him tough this year because you know, you 487 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,359 Speaker 4: do expect or at least I've always thought, you know, 488 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 4: your first round draft is going to start, I mean, 489 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 4: or what what are you drafting him? 490 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: Right? 491 00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 4: It is what it is. So I'm looking forward to 492 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 4: him and uh uh Gallimore, Galli and this and this 493 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,119 Speaker 4: guy Davis too coming up. I think they can solidify 494 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,399 Speaker 4: that for a week or two. But I want my 495 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:20,639 Speaker 4: real question of listening to the Talking Cowboys before, and 496 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 4: they were talking about m VP with Dak Prescott, and 497 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,879 Speaker 4: I think he's having one this year. Do you think, 498 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,639 Speaker 4: of course next year he's on the hook for what 499 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:32,680 Speaker 4: fifty nine million or something. 500 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:34,880 Speaker 8: Big number. 501 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 4: Could you ever see? And I'm not I'm not trying 502 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 4: to be negative Nancy here because I definitely wanted to 503 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:46,640 Speaker 4: win the Super Bowl if he doesn't, because he's playing 504 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 4: great now. But I think we all as Cowboys fans, 505 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 4: that we want to see this in the playoffs and 506 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 4: championship game at least if he if he becomes m VP, 507 00:23:57,920 --> 00:23:59,919 Speaker 4: I mean a, Jerry's probably going to resign him even 508 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 4: if he doesn't take us to at least a championship game. 509 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 5: Do you agree? 510 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 1: Yes? 511 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:05,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, I do too. 512 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,400 Speaker 1: I think Jerry's going to resign him. I mean, he's 513 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 1: paying He's playing phenomenal right now. 514 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 4: So yeah, yeah, it seems like and I don't know 515 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 4: if it was getting Trey Lance to light a fire 516 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:19,199 Speaker 4: under him. 517 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:20,679 Speaker 6: You know, when someone's. 518 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 4: Potentially going to take your job, you seem like you 519 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 4: play better. And obviously we all know contract year, Yeah, 520 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 4: they play lights out. So I don't know if this 521 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 4: combination of both of that or him just getting finally 522 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 4: comfortable with McCarthy's system. So I think it's a combination 523 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 4: of all that. But can you just talk a little 524 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:37,679 Speaker 4: bit and I'll hang him and listen what kind of 525 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:41,199 Speaker 4: contract because he's thirty now, so you probably couldn't do 526 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,880 Speaker 4: a ten year with Dak just so that you could 527 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 4: have some voidable years. But it's going to take us 528 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 4: six or seven year because I would imagine it's going 529 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:51,640 Speaker 4: to be his last contract. But maybe talk about that, yeah, 530 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 4: because you definitely got to sign CD and Micah for sure, 531 00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:59,719 Speaker 4: and and the other guys will just have to fill in. 532 00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 1: But all right, yeah, again another topic that that could 533 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 1: be on another show, like the whole show. I mean, 534 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 1: what is Dak's contract? Looks like tricky because you know, 535 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,439 Speaker 1: he's he's never been one that wants to, you know, 536 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 1: have a lot of years, but that's how you do 537 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 1: it if you want to, you know, give him the 538 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 1: number that he's looking for, but without it just killing 539 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 1: your cap. So yeah, I could see an extension there 540 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:32,919 Speaker 1: of five, five to six years maybe, but you know, 541 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,359 Speaker 1: he's I think I think, you know, they don't have 542 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 1: to do anything because he is under contract next year 543 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:39,640 Speaker 1: and it is for a lot of money. But and 544 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: and that'll that's going to be changed regardless of what happens. 545 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,879 Speaker 1: But you know, if he has, if he has, if 546 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 1: he keeps this up, and maybe wins MVP and and 547 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,880 Speaker 1: and I think I think more success in the playoffs, 548 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 1: and you know, if they can take him to another level, 549 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 1: that will probably help him as much as anything. But 550 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: you know, if that happens, you know they're gonna if 551 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 1: he goes and wins MVP and goes and wins the 552 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,440 Speaker 1: super Bowl, I mean, Jerry's like, here's the pin. I mean, 553 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 1: here you go. I mean, write your own check. Now, 554 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 1: he'll never do that, but you know what I'm saying. 555 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: I mean, it'll it'll just be. It'll be through the 556 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,679 Speaker 1: roof and and and no one will really care. You know, 557 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 1: if he if he can do that and take this 558 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,160 Speaker 1: team to a level we haven't seen, that would be great. 559 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:23,880 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to Anthony and New Jersey. Anthony, Hey, Nick, great, 560 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 1: how are you doing? 561 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:27,440 Speaker 2: He very good? First time calling into the show. Love 562 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 2: all your work, love all everybody. Would you guys do there? 563 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 1: It's awesome, Thank you, first time caller, first time Hey, just. 564 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,400 Speaker 2: A quick question. I just hope that like the defense 565 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:42,480 Speaker 2: just kind of focuses a little bit trying to contain 566 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 2: Josh Allen from running around because I know he's a big, 567 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:49,360 Speaker 2: mobile quarterback. So hoping you know, they kind of concentrate 568 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:51,400 Speaker 2: a little bit more on that this week. That's all 569 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 2: I really wanted to say. Thanks man, I appreciate your work. 570 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 1: Thank you. All right. That was Anthony in New Jersey. 571 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,919 Speaker 1: I think Chris might be on the phone here we go, 572 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 1: we go Anthony to Jersey. If y'all could see, and 573 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 1: I haven't really seen it because I'm here, but I 574 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 1: can tell what we put Chris through on this show, 575 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 1: put him to work back there, and I appreciate it 576 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:16,119 Speaker 1: for sure. Josh Allen running the ball running around one 577 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,159 Speaker 1: hundred percent, that's going to be an issue. He's just 578 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 1: fourth in the league, I think among quarterbacks and rushing 579 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 1: yards with like three seventy five, you know, and some 580 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,400 Speaker 1: of them are designed, but not really. He really does 581 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 1: a nice job of looking seeing taking off. So that's 582 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,199 Speaker 1: gonna be a key man. There's there's no doubt about it. 583 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:38,119 Speaker 1: I mean, he that that seems to be the type 584 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:41,640 Speaker 1: of running quarterback that really hurts them the most. It's 585 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: it's not it's not the guys that do the design stuff. 586 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 1: It's the ones that have the ability to win when 587 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:49,680 Speaker 1: nothing else is there and then the middle is wide 588 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: open and go get it and go get the first 589 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 1: down and move the chains. That's been the one over 590 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 1: the years that's really hurt this team, and that's what 591 00:27:56,640 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 1: I think Josh Allen does very well. So that will be, uh, 592 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 1: that will be interesting to see how how that kind 593 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,400 Speaker 1: of works out. All Right, we're gonna we're not taking 594 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:09,480 Speaker 1: break here. We're gonna keep We're gonna move along, Gonna 595 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 1: do a little bit of a book review that I've 596 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 1: been talking about. These are some of my favorite books. 597 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 1: These are books that you know, my friends have have 598 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 1: written and some that I've done. So I'm gonna kind 599 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 1: of go through a little bit there. I think we're 600 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,679 Speaker 1: gonna we'll start it off here. I got a really 601 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 1: really good friend of mine, uh, Drew Myers. He's actually 602 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 1: spoke to our our team. He's a motivational speaker. I 603 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,720 Speaker 1: met him in college. He's probably the reason. He is 604 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:37,400 Speaker 1: the reason, he's the reason why I'm I'm probably where 605 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 1: I am today because he got me the job, that 606 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 1: helped me get this job.

Drew Myers is my guy. 608 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 1: He he wrote this book here it's called The Taco 609 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 1: and Chocolate Diet and let me tell you it has 610 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 1: nothing to do with diet, nothing to do with tacos. 611 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: It's really what I guess you would say self help 612 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 1: type book. Basically, his his thing is live living AND's 613 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 1: what do they say, live a bold, adventurous, intentional life. 614 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 1: So he does. He does a great job of just 615 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 1: kind of saying, hey, do you do it the right way? 616 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 1: And that's one thing I love about Drew Man. He's 617 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 1: done about one hundred things. He's been a football coach, 618 00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 1: he's he's been an editor at a newspaper.

His 623 00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 1: name is Carrie Lofton. He's got a book that probably 624 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: relates to just about anybody. It's called Money Talks, How 625 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: to confidently price your work, And he's done some work 626 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 1: with us. He's a videographer now he's doing some freelance stuff. 627 00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 1: He's negotiating prices all the time. But it's really more 628 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 1: more than just that. It could be how to negotiate 629 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 1: your own salary, how to how to get your your 630 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 1: your worth properly and then do it in the right way, 631 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 1: because it's not easy. You guys know, it's not easy 632 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: to talk to your bosses about getting more money and 633 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: then when they say yes or no, then you got 634 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 1: to go back to where I mean, how do you 635 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 1: how do you do all that?

This is from my dad. My dad 643 00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 1: wrote a book. Just a couple of years ago. Tim 644 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 1: Eatman wrote a book. It's called Nursing Homes. And one 645 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 1: thing that that he does, he calls himself doctor Sunshine. 646 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 1: Doctor Sunshiney goes actually goes to nursing homes and sings 647 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 1: with him. I got a chance to actually visit with 648 00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 1: him just a couple of weeks ago, went into a 649 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 1: nursing home. Pretty interesting experience for sure, singing songs to them. 650 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 1: We're talking about ninety five one hundred year old people 651 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 1: that don't really know a whole lot what's going on, 652 00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 1: but they start singing music and the song power of 653 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 1: music big time is evident in here. And he kind 654 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 1: of shares his experience over the years to kind of 655 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,960 Speaker 1: get him to this point.

All right, Cowboys books. 657 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 1: This one, this one, this is the one that probably 658 00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,520 Speaker 1: sells the most for me. This was my second book 659 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:35,239 Speaker 1: I ever did, If These Walls Could Talk. It's been 660 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 1: like ten years, just a variety of different stories. Obviously 661 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 1: Romo here on the cover, but lots of things. You 662 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 1: probably heard most of these stories over the years, but 663 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 1: this is one that keeps doing pretty well for me. 664 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: I get a nice little check every now and again. 665 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:53,680 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, people still tell buying this. If These 666 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 1: Walls Could Talk definitely the most successful one I think 667 00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: that I've done. My first one that I did though, 668 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 1: that kind of opened the door for everything. Art Brows 669 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 1: Looking Up kind of did his story his first book. 670 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 1: She got an opinion about him, don't really care. It 671 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 1: probably means you haven't met him a really great guy 672 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 1: and certainly was the reason why I was able to 673 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 1: do some of these books. And his story is fascinating. 674 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:24,120 Speaker 1: Who knows, maybe there'll be another book down that that 675 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 1: will be an interesting another book down the line with him. 676 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 1: All right, Jack Taylor, who has been on our shows 677 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: here recently a media mash. This book just came out 678 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 1: Coach Prime. He got to spend a whole year with 679 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:41,760 Speaker 1: Dion down at Jackson State a couple of years ago. 680 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 1: So really the ins and outs of a whole season 681 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:49,000 Speaker 1: there with Dion Sanders at Jackson State HBCU and just 682 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 1: just all the challenges that Dion dealt with there, probably 683 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:56,760 Speaker 1: right before he went to Colorado. So this book, John 684 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 1: Jack Taylor can also get this on Amazon Coach Prime. 685 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: Really cool a book. I can't wait. I haven't read 686 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 1: this one, can't wait to read this one. All right. 687 00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:09,560 Speaker 1: This was my third book Friday Saturday Sunday in Texas. 688 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 1: This was one year of football when almost almost killed myself. Honestly, 689 00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:18,560 Speaker 1: this year I followed a high school team, a college team, 690 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,760 Speaker 1: and a pro team obviously the Cowboys for a whole year. 691 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 1: Just talked about the ins and outs of the of 692 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 1: you know, just everything and how different things are from 693 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:32,880 Speaker 1: these levels. But you might be studying for algebra, might 694 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 1: be taking a SAT, or you might be studying for 695 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 1: the Giants. Who knows. But everything is different at these levels, 696 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 1: but yet they're all kind of the same. At the 697 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 1: same time, was watching the TV show Modern Family one night, 698 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 1: eleven o'clock at night, Modern Family. Saw this show three 699 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:53,080 Speaker 1: different families kind of related but not the same, and 700 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,680 Speaker 1: I thought, I'm all right, a book just like that 701 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 1: Friday Saturday Sunday in Texas. Really loved that. And then 702 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 1: last book, the fourth one I've done. It's pretty good 703 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 1: Christmas gift right here. Six decades of Cowboys Football, the 704 00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 1: sixtieth anniversary, This one I did. I shared this one 705 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 1: with Jeff Sullivan, another writer. We kind of split it up, 706 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:16,359 Speaker 1: all kinds of pictures, cool stuff there. Just every year, 707 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:21,399 Speaker 1: sixty seasons, sixty players. We ranked the sixty players, and 708 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:23,239 Speaker 1: it was cool right in that with Jeff, we did 709 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 1: a little bit trading, you know, He's like, I'll take 710 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty four, and I'm like, I'll trade you the 711 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,279 Speaker 1: ice Bowl for eighty seven. And it was kind of fun. 712 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 1: It's fun to do that kind of go down memory Lane. 713 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 1: That one. That's a big, nice coffee table book. Lots 714 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:41,799 Speaker 1: and lots of beautiful photos in there.

One of my favorite 725 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,360 Speaker 5: Cowboy books of all times because I'm kind of like 726 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 5: a nineties you know, I became a fan, you know 727 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:22,880 Speaker 5: that for that run that we had in the nineties. 728 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:26,000 Speaker 5: Is so my favorite book is Boys Would Be Boys 729 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:29,839 Speaker 5: Man by Jeff Perlman, and I read that and it's 730 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 5: some really good stuff in there. But real quick, man, 731 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:37,120 Speaker 5: I have a story of being a fan and kind 732 00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 5: of meeting the players based off of what you were 733 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:43,600 Speaker 5: saying earlier, your Emmett story, which was tremendous. In twenty seventeen, 734 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:46,839 Speaker 5: the Cowboys had a rookie on their team, Louis Neil. 735 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 5: So I got a chance to go to the game 736 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:53,239 Speaker 5: at Medlife Cowboys at the Giants, and right before I 737 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:56,439 Speaker 5: hit the turnstile, there's a lady there and she goes, 738 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:58,879 Speaker 5: would you like to meet the players? And I'm looking 739 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:00,880 Speaker 5: at this lady crazy, and I'm like, what are you 740 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,560 Speaker 5: talking about? And she goes, if you like to meet 741 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:06,480 Speaker 5: the players, take this card and go over towards that 742 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 5: tenth over there in about half an hour. So me 743 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:12,719 Speaker 5: and my buds we waited half an hour and we 744 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,800 Speaker 5: look at the card and it says family visiting passed. 745 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,480 Speaker 5: So we said, whatever, let's give it a shot. We 746 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:21,399 Speaker 5: go over to the security in front of this tent 747 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:24,799 Speaker 5: and sure enough they let us in and we see 748 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:27,839 Speaker 5: the lady sitting down. So I approached the lady and 749 00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:30,600 Speaker 5: I go, are you a relative? And she goes, I'm 750 00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:34,360 Speaker 5: Lewis Neil's mom. So I sat down and I'm like, 751 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 5: are the players going to come in here? And sure enough, 752 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:40,120 Speaker 5: about five minutes later, all the guys start walking in 753 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:45,080 Speaker 5: dak Zeke Coach Garrett at the time, it was such 754 00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 5: an amazing experience for somebody that would not have that opportunity, 755 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,359 Speaker 5: and the following year we kept the cards and we said, 756 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:54,279 Speaker 5: let's give it a shot. Next year, we're gonna come 757 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,680 Speaker 5: back and see if the same cards work. So I 758 00:36:57,719 --> 00:36:59,959 Speaker 5: got to security that let me in because they thought 759 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,640 Speaker 5: I worked for the team, but they wouldn't let my 760 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:05,799 Speaker 5: friends in because they didn't have they didn't have like 761 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:11,200 Speaker 5: the warm up that I had on I asked Taco Charleston, 762 00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:13,920 Speaker 5: who was there talking to some people. I said, Taco, 763 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:16,759 Speaker 5: can you let my friends in? And Taco looks at 764 00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:19,719 Speaker 5: the security guard and goes, hey, let those three guys in, 765 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:22,879 Speaker 5: And we had the same experience the following year. Nick, 766 00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:26,000 Speaker 5: that's just some of my two stories, you know, getting 767 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 5: to meet the players. But real quick, Nick, I have 768 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 5: a question for this week. Do you think there's a 769 00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:34,360 Speaker 5: chance that they elevate defensive tackle Carl Davis for this 770 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:36,320 Speaker 5: game because of Hankin's injury? 771 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:41,920 Speaker 1: Yes, thank you. Not everybody listens to the entire show. 772 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,760 Speaker 1: They come in late. Yes, we've been talking about Carl Davis. 773 00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:47,919 Speaker 1: I think it's a great week to put him out there. 774 00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:51,680 Speaker 1: So cool, cool story too. I can't say I know 775 00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,919 Speaker 1: the player you were referring to, Louis Neil never never 776 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 1: heard of him before, but maybe it was preseason or 777 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:01,879 Speaker 1: something like that. I can't he doesn't, his name doesn't 778 00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 1: ring bell, but Taco Charlton is probably the best play 779 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:08,279 Speaker 1: he's ever made. For letting g in like that, even 780 00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 1: though maybe that's not a great play, you know, you mean, 781 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 1: honestly cool, Sorry for you, but can't just be letting 782 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:16,120 Speaker 1: anybody in just you know, behind the behind the scenes, 783 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:19,680 Speaker 1: that's where where issues happened. But fortunately nothing happened there. 784 00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 1: Cool but great that you got a chance to see 785 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:27,400 Speaker 1: some of those players. All right, Pastor James, he's in Midland, Texas. 786 00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:28,200 Speaker 1: Pastor James. 787 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:28,600 Speaker 8: What's up? 788 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:29,560 Speaker 3: Hey? 789 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:30,959 Speaker 8: Nick? Has it going today? Brother? 790 00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 1: I'm good? How are you doing? 791 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:38,440 Speaker 8: Doing well? Doing well? I was listening and concerning nursing 792 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:42,440 Speaker 8: homes and stuff I was when I was younger. I 793 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:45,720 Speaker 8: was a certified nurses aid for over ten years. Yeah, 794 00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:50,040 Speaker 8: and so I understand, you know, the patients, and yes, 795 00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 8: the love that it takes, you know, to work in 796 00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 8: the nursing home. And I understand about the music because 797 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:57,600 Speaker 8: I worked on the All Timas Wing and yes, we 798 00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:01,360 Speaker 8: would use music, and we would also used physical therapy 799 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:05,320 Speaker 8: and I did a lot of those things with the residents, 800 00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:06,640 Speaker 8: So I understand that as well. 801 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:10,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's amazing how you think some lady who's ninety 802 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,480 Speaker 1: eight years old and doesn't want to eat and doesn't 803 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:16,720 Speaker 1: know her name so much, but you start singing jingle bells, 804 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 1: she starts tapping her foot, she starts nodding a little bit, 805 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:22,080 Speaker 1: she can maybe singing a little bit. It's pretty amazing 806 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:25,800 Speaker 1: the power of music, especially what you can recall from 807 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,719 Speaker 1: even your earliest of days. And so I know it's 808 00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,160 Speaker 1: not a cowboys book, it's not a sports book, but 809 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:34,720 Speaker 1: it's one that's real passionate to my father, and my dad, 810 00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:37,959 Speaker 1: Tim Eatman, he's really the reason behind this whole show. 811 00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:40,319 Speaker 1: He told me two or three years ago, he said, 812 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:42,520 Speaker 1: you know what, you should do your own show like 813 00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:45,040 Speaker 1: some of these other call ins with the fans. That 814 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 1: was his idea, and it took a little bit to 815 00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 1: get there. You know, people don't always listen to their 816 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,520 Speaker 1: dad right away, but he was right about that. And 817 00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 1: this is his book called Nursing Homes, and it's also 818 00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:57,759 Speaker 1: kind of a story of his whole life and how 819 00:39:57,760 --> 00:39:58,359 Speaker 1: he got to. 820 00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 8: That point right right, Well, well, tell him we appreciate 821 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:04,640 Speaker 8: him coming up with the concept sure for your show. 822 00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:10,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he's a he's a he's a he calls 823 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:14,160 Speaker 1: himself a storylinebacker. So yeah, because he you know, he 824 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,960 Speaker 1: supports the show's the storyline you know, you get it.

You know, he wasn't 850 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:23,080 Speaker 8: a big time name, but Mike Hegemanny. I mean, he 851 00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 8: was yes school. 852 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,239 Speaker 1: He was a hard player, scored a touchdown in the 853 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:30,880 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. He did yeah against the Steelers, Mike Hegman 854 00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:31,720 Speaker 1: fifty eight. 855 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:33,839 Speaker 8: Yes, fifty eight yes. 856 00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:34,360 Speaker 7: And so. 857 00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:37,480 Speaker 8: But now my favorite cowboy, one of my favorite cowboys, 858 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,440 Speaker 8: I get to see him every day, and that is 859 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:44,520 Speaker 8: Everson Lows. I was number twenty four in a Greater 860 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 8: Midland Football League and proper Warner because of him, and 861 00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 8: he was just always one of my favorite cowboys. And 862 00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:52,719 Speaker 8: it's good to be able to hear him talk every day. 863 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. 864 00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:56,200 Speaker 8: But now, okay, I don't want to take up too 865 00:41:56,280 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 8: much time. But you know, Mazi Mazi is coming along. 866 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:06,480 Speaker 8: And you know, I hate that Hankins ended up getting hurt, 867 00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:10,160 Speaker 8: but I feel like if they just give him an opportunity, 868 00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 8: you know, let him, let him get his feed up 869 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:15,760 Speaker 8: under him and stuff and all that, he'll he'll come along. 870 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,760 Speaker 8: And I'm really I'm agreeing with the call of from earlier. 871 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:23,520 Speaker 8: I feel that this team is moving from a for 872 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:26,560 Speaker 8: next team into more of a power team, and we 873 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:30,640 Speaker 8: just need to keep following the mindset of the coach 874 00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:33,359 Speaker 8: and just get tougher and stronger, and I think we're 875 00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:34,400 Speaker 8: gonna be okay. 876 00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:36,680 Speaker 1: All right, all right. I like that. I mean, it's yeah, 877 00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:38,920 Speaker 1: I appreciate the call, and it is I think you're right. 878 00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:41,719 Speaker 1: It's becoming a tough team. 879 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:42,799 Speaker 8: You know. 880 00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:45,880 Speaker 1: I don't think you can live in Green Bay and 881 00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:48,600 Speaker 1: be a coach there for a team in Green Bay 882 00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:50,879 Speaker 1: if you're not tough. You've got to be mentally tough 883 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 1: to play, play outdoors, play these tough games like that 884 00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:58,240 Speaker 1: at a high level. So yeah, I mean, he knows 885 00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:02,000 Speaker 1: what a tough football team looks like. He's dealt with 886 00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:04,880 Speaker 1: teams that had to go with a lot of different injuries, 887 00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:07,759 Speaker 1: so he understands depth as well, talking about Mike McCarthy. 888 00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 1: So yeah, I definitely believe that that he's developing a 889 00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:15,600 Speaker 1: tough team and doesn't help. I mean, it doesn't hurt 890 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:19,520 Speaker 1: that you have surgery three or four days before going on, 891 00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:22,080 Speaker 1: you know, onto the field, and it's never a doubt. 892 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:23,840 Speaker 1: It was never a doubt that Mike McCarthy was going 893 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:26,480 Speaker 1: to coach the sidelines, not just coach, but be there 894 00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:30,120 Speaker 1: on the sidelines. He's not gonna let that hinder him. 895 00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:32,640 Speaker 1: And it didn't affect the team, and they were so 896 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,239 Speaker 1: locked in about it that they kind of forgot. They 897 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:37,839 Speaker 1: kind of forgot that it was anything was different. So, uh, 898 00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 1: you know, Dak is still we talked yesterday in the 899 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:42,480 Speaker 1: locker room. He's still kind of kicking himself a little bit. 900 00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:45,879 Speaker 1: They he's upset that they didn't give him a game ball, 901 00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:49,080 Speaker 1: you know, and for for doing that. They were so 902 00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:51,960 Speaker 1: just you know, just excited about the win, beating the 903 00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,279 Speaker 1: Eagles and all that, and you know, he said, hey, 904 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:56,920 Speaker 1: there's no big deal. I'm gonna you know, I'm gonna 905 00:43:57,239 --> 00:44:00,440 Speaker 1: be as Everything's going to be normal. And so sometimes 906 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:02,239 Speaker 1: when that happens, you kind of forget that it's really 907 00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:04,640 Speaker 1: not normal. He's saying that, but really wasn't a bait. 908 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:06,719 Speaker 1: He didn't feel normal, but still was out there. It 909 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:10,320 Speaker 1: was great. All right, let's move on. We got Dallas. 910 00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:15,360 Speaker 1: He's in Duvall over there in Jacksonville. So Dallas, what's. 911 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 6: Up, Hey, Nick? How you doing? 912 00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:19,160 Speaker 1: I'm great?

Just one question, maybe you're 920 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:39,239 Speaker 6: gonna answer it for me. Is there something physically wrong 921 00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:41,440 Speaker 6: with Marzi? Uh? You know fifty eight? 922 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:43,680 Speaker 1: Is there something I mean physically wrong? 923 00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:47,719 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean because you see the tape, you see 924 00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 6: him not moving like literally, like the snap is gone, 925 00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 6: everybody's going, He's still there. I mean literally he was 926 00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:56,760 Speaker 6: still sitting there or squatting there or whatever. 927 00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:59,680 Speaker 1: No, let me let me share. Let me share the 928 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:03,080 Speaker 1: raise that was outside the locker room. For four seasons 929 00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:05,560 Speaker 1: when Bill Parcells was the coach, he had all these 930 00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 1: motivational sayings. One of them that he would say is 931 00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:15,400 Speaker 1: knowledge is confidence. Confidence lets you play fast. That was. 932 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:18,479 Speaker 1: And so it's all about it's a mental He's nothing 933 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 1: wrong with him physically. It's about awareness. Where do you 934 00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:22,839 Speaker 1: need to be, where do you need to line up? 935 00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:26,239 Speaker 1: Where am I going here? And when you're thinking, you're 936 00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:28,520 Speaker 1: not playing and reacting as much when he when he 937 00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:31,759 Speaker 1: gets it down, where he's just reacting and playing. He's 938 00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:34,680 Speaker 1: going to be faster. There's nothing wrong with him, it's 939 00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:37,800 Speaker 1: just it's it's a transition he's got to make. I 940 00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:40,319 Speaker 1: don't think there's anything physically wrong with him. He's just 941 00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:45,880 Speaker 1: learning how to play football at the highest level. Okay, 942 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,320 Speaker 1: that's my opinion. That's my pain. I don't think anything's 943 00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:49,680 Speaker 1: wrong with them. Is he is? 944 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:49,759 Speaker 2: He? 945 00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:53,359 Speaker 1: Is it disappointing? Yes, yes, you would expect your first 946 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:55,960 Speaker 1: round pick. I'm not going to sugarcoat this. He's the 947 00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:59,000 Speaker 1: first round pick, and sometimes you take first round picks 948 00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:01,600 Speaker 1: over another guy because he should be able to step 949 00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:03,960 Speaker 1: right in and play, and that hasn't been the case. 950 00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:07,840 Speaker 1: Let's not forget Neville. Gallimore's playing better than he's played before, 951 00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,279 Speaker 1: and Osa is playing out of his mind, maybe at 952 00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:12,920 Speaker 1: a pro Bowl level. So it's hard. It's hard to 953 00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:15,919 Speaker 1: get on the field. But I expected Mazzi to play 954 00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 1: more than this. 955 00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:21,000 Speaker 6: Are you coming down to Miami and week. 956 00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:22,760 Speaker 1: That's the plan? 957 00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:23,160 Speaker 7: Yeah? 958 00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:25,319 Speaker 1: I haven't missed the game since two thousand, so I 959 00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:28,200 Speaker 1: really hope that I'm still there for that one for Yeah, 960 00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:30,000 Speaker 1: I'll be there all right. 961 00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:32,200 Speaker 6: Okay, again, the show. 962 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:36,520 Speaker 1: Appreciate it. Thanks you too, you too. I don't think 963 00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:40,120 Speaker 1: Dallas like my answer there. I think he's disappointed. You 964 00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 1: can be disappointed. And Mazzie Smith, I mean, I get it, 965 00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:45,640 Speaker 1: but I mean I've said it over and over and 966 00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:49,080 Speaker 1: I just feel like he's going to be you know, 967 00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:53,600 Speaker 1: I think, I think he's going to be fine. But yeah, 968 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:57,000 Speaker 1: the transition is a little bit more than you wanted to. 969 00:46:57,280 --> 00:46:59,840 Speaker 1: And I also understand this is the second reference to 970 00:46:59,880 --> 00:47:04,160 Speaker 1: him in this show, but I get it. Defensive lineman 971 00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 1: from Michigan, it's not playing well like you thought. Oh 972 00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:12,399 Speaker 1: my god, he's another Taco Charlton. Well we'll see. I mean, 973 00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:15,400 Speaker 1: I may maybe he will be, but I doubt it. 974 00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:17,000 Speaker 1: I doubt I bet he's you know, I bet he's 975 00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,320 Speaker 1: going to be better than that. And let's not forget 976 00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:23,879 Speaker 1: that Taco Charlton is probably the worst first round pick 977 00:47:23,920 --> 00:47:27,600 Speaker 1: they've had in the last twelve years. I mean, they've 978 00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:29,959 Speaker 1: had really good picks. Most of them make the Pro Bowl, 979 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 1: most of them are all Pro in since two thousand. 980 00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:38,439 Speaker 1: I think it's two thousand and ten. Every first round 981 00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:42,640 Speaker 1: pick other than Mo Clayborne and Mazzi And I'm sorry 982 00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:46,600 Speaker 1: Taco Charlton will now Mazi have haven't made a Pro 983 00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:50,280 Speaker 1: Bowl now Tyler Smith hasn't made one. That might change 984 00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:53,160 Speaker 1: here in a couple of weeks. This guy's playing out 985 00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:55,680 Speaker 1: of his mind at left guard, and I kind of 986 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:57,520 Speaker 1: think that's going to be his spot, is left guard. 987 00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:00,520 Speaker 1: I think he's playing so well there. I just I 988 00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:03,359 Speaker 1: have a hard time thinking they move them. Maybe they 989 00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:08,400 Speaker 1: do whenever Tyroann moves on whenever. That is Tyroan's throwing 990 00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:11,319 Speaker 1: back the clock as well. And I don't know who's 991 00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:14,319 Speaker 1: gonna win Comeback Player of the Year, but I think 992 00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:17,200 Speaker 1: Tyron Smith's name should be thrown in there.
