Speaker 1 (00:00):
Good afternoon, everybody, and welcome to the program here on
Sports Radio AM thirteen under the Zone. My name is
Craig Way. Glad to have you with us here on
this Tuesday afternoon. By us, I mean I'm, of course,
including the producer, a lifelong Cowboys fan like his father.
That's why the D in his middle name on the
(00:20):
birth certificate says Dallas. It's Cameron D. Parker. The D
for Dallas, but D for another Dallas defeat last night
as they lost to the Houston Texans thirty four to ten.
I asked you, you know, because you said you can
be packing for New York because we leave after today's
show to go travel with the Texas men's basketball team
(00:41):
up to Brooklyn for their games that will happen on
Thursday and Friday at the Legends Classic. I said, well,
you could have it on while, you know, and you
were like, no, and did you watch?
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Did not watch it?
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Now?
Speaker 2 (00:54):
I did because I had Nico Collins playing, and so
you were keeping up on the e ESPN fancy app
it'll send you notification when the players in the red zone.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
So when I got that, I would I would hop
on pop up the ESPN stream just to see if
they would throw the Nico Collins I did not. I
lost by forty points anyway, so I don't even know
why I was checking it, but I was. I was
checking Twitter. I did see a lot of good things
about the Marvin overshown. I did see that Brendon Aubrey
missed a field goal, had a sixty four yard or
(01:25):
that did not count yep, which is unfortunate. Saw some
Texans fans being a little frustrated because it was a
ten point game and the Cowboys I think had the
ball Craig, but then I did not confer the fourth down,
and then the final.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Two points off the board. It would have been twenty
thirteen because of the penalty. They went for it, went
for it and then in complete passed the fourth down,
and then even then they got a stop and got
the ball back, and then that's when the double fumble. Weird.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
I didn't see that. I got a notification it was
that sounds like a Cowboys thing. Yeah, yeah, So was
it thirty four to ten final score?
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Yeah, it was attack.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
I think this will be kind of figured it would
be before.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
But it was. It was twenty to ten in the
fourth quarter. It was a competitive game with the Cowboys
having a chance to get close. They gave up the
two quick touchdowns, came back with the long hit to
come on Te Turpin, and it looked like they were
going to be right there in the thick of the fight.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
He was on that sixty four yard touchdown run twenty
two point five miles per hour.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Yeah he was, he was moved, Yeah, he was moving.
He got through the defense. That was one of the
high point moments. There weren't many Jerry Jones after the game.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Oh what do you say?
Speaker 1 (02:36):
There was one thing that I thought was pretty interesting.
He in the initial Q and A, it was just
kind of like, well, let's just not you know, we're
not doing right. I don't know why the offense and
it was a lot of just talking and circle stuff.
Jane Slater, who was or a long Worn YEP and
worked at Long Horn Network and as a friend and
she's really cool. She did it in a very nice way,
(03:00):
respectful way, but she continued to push the point to
Jerry about you know, it's disappointing, and she said, respectfully
speaking when the same things continue to happen over and over,
and he said something to her like, well, it's it's
not respectful, not meaning her, meaning the team, their performance,
not respectful when they continue to do the same thing
(03:23):
over and over again. And you could tell he was
frustrated about about the whole deal. But as we know,
there's nothing really that's going to change about that through
the course of the rest of the season, because she
did also ask him about the change thing, and he
brought up when he made the change in twenty ten
and I figreted that and so on and so forth.
(03:45):
So yeah, they're right back where they are.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
And I think we had talked about a few weeks ago, Craig,
out of the loss of San Francisco, I felt like
the Cowboys were going to go on at least a
six game losing it dead. I get it on five
right now now that Giants game on? Is it Thanksgiving
or the day after Thanksgiving?
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Thanksgiving?
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Thankfully it's ONTLI. It should be put it on Netflix actually,
because then there's a good chance that it won't work
and you're streaming. It's like, yeah, that's all right, it's
on Fox.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
The Cowboys play, always, always, always play the late afternoon
game on Thanksgiving. That goes all the way back to
nineteen sixty six. That's another brain child attack. Shrem that
there had been a game that was going to be earlier,
and he he petitioned the NFL, said let us play,
and it was on Thanksgiving Day in nineteen sixty six,
and they beat the Browns and that was kind of
(04:37):
their coming out party because they were on the way
to winning their first division title, getting in their first
NFL title game. And other than two years, I think
it's seventy five and seventy seven, those are the only
two years the Cowboys have not played on Thanksgiving. It's
a Thanksgiving tradition. They play on Thanksgiving, and lately it's
been a tradition to lose on Thanksgiving. You know. You know,
(04:57):
my wife Lynda had our time believing that they're owing
five at home this year, and here was the number
I was looking for last week, and I didn't have
it quite right. They've had six consecutive games where they
have trailed by twenty or more points. And that includes
the Baltimore game where they came back and cut it
to three and lost by three, but six consecutive games
(05:22):
there where they've trailed by twenty or more and that's
a rough deal. So that's a little bit of cowboy talk.
We'll have some more of it, but coming up, we're
going to have a little closer look at Saturday's matchup
between the log Horns and the Kentucky Wildcats. Kentucky's first
game in Austin since nineteen fifty one, only their second overall,
(05:44):
and it's only the second time that Texas has played Kentucky.
Tom Leach, a good friend in the play by play
voice of the Kentucky Wildcats, will join us. We'll have
Inconceivable this hour, and then coming up in the three
o'clock hour, Greg Tapper, managing editor of Dave Campbell's Texas
Football Magazine, will join us as we talk football across
(06:05):
the state of Texas and both a collegiate and high
school variety. We're also going to hear from Long Horn
men's basketball coach Rodney Terry Texas women's head coach Vick Schaeffer.
So we've got a lot on our plate today and
it's all coming up right here on Sports Radio AM
thirteen under the Zone in the iHeartRadio app
