eleven am.

Kick.

Speaker 1 (00:40):
So do like Cameron Parker does, get your double shot
of espresso and get yourself out to Bevo Boulevard. But
I guess they're going to open it Saturday morning at
probably seven in the morning.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
I'm going to guess.

Speaker 3 (00:54):
I think it's close, yeah, seven or eight, I believe,
because I know the time lists for us to get
there set up is between five am. A.

Speaker 2 (01:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:05):
I think those are going down and getting maybe a
double shot of tequila and their bloody Mary or vodka.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
There you go, yeah, or hit Big Bertha early right, Yeah,
Texas against Florida on that and uh eleven am kickoff
Network airtime at ten o'clock kickoff at eleven and then
on Sunday season opener for Texas women's basketball, fourth ranked
team in the country, will play Southeast Missouri State at

(01:33):
Moody Center. It's a two o'clock tip and we'll have
it for you on one oh three point one FM,
Austin's eighty station one forty five is the year time.
Two o'clock is the tip off Texas against Semo Southeast
Missouri State. Clean up from hour number one on the
text line, somebody said, did I miss something? Cook dismissed,

(01:53):
not dismissed, but left. You'll hear more from sark coming up.
Not dismissed. That's the first thing folks always go to.
And and Kirk Bowle's questions and was he kicked off
the team? He was not kicked off the team.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
In the first report this morning said he was dismissed,
and then it came out that it was mutual. And
then as you alluded to, sarcus, yeah he addresses it.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
So, uh so he's no longer on the football team.
Somebody else, in response to the Jeopardy thing with a cringe.
He questioned. Somebody said, our team is in Jeopardy every Sunday.
I think it. That's a cowboy. Yeah, our team is
in Jeopardy every Sunday.

Speaker 3 (02:39):
The report about Dak Prescott with his hamstring come in
partially off the bone. Oh my goodness. And that was
after James Jones said he quit on the team.

Speaker 2 (02:49):
Yeah that's not good.

Speaker 3 (02:50):
Yeah, stick with a Sean McCoy and on the Fox
Sports TV shows.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
Yeah, yeah, that's a very reactionary toff and click baitish, uh,
that sort of thing.

Speaker 2 (03:04):
He may need surgery, me out for the rest of
the year.

Speaker 3 (03:08):
I don't know if I said it on this show.
I told someone that the multitude of shows that you're
on these days, can I said, I told someone that
the way the season is going, he's gonna suffer a
season ending injury just because not because of that's like
karma and destiny all that crap. It's just because of
just the low that Dak Prescott's had to carry on

(03:29):
this offense with no running game or blocking one receiver
that can draw attention, to.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
Say nothing of maybe spraining a vocal cord.

Speaker 3 (03:37):
Going here we go, that kind of thing, right, And yeah,
and here we are just a hamstring injury and Jerry
Jones is training for Jonathan Mingo, who apparently.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
Is a receiver.

Speaker 3 (03:51):
Get excited about Jonathan me. I still think he plays
defensive end. I still think that's barkvious, man. I don't
know before we l issue Tiger. Get excited about Jonathan.
He was receiver four and the Panthers, so he'll be
receiver what in the Cowboys receiver four as well? Okay,
but I hope Dak gets gets healthy. I know a
lot of Cowboy fans want to blame him for this season.

(04:12):
It's he's not played great to his standards. But it's
not Dak Prescott's fault. If you watch the Cowboys game,
you'll know that.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
I have a very good friend who went to high
school with me in North Carolina. We were in journalism
class together my senior. He was one year younger than
he's a junior. We became very close friends a because
we just serendipitous that he found out that each other
was a diading the old Dodger fan and that we're talking.

Speaker 2 (04:42):
This is like nineteen seventy seven.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
You know, when him in high school We were both
big Dodger fans and still are to this day.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
And and and so.

Speaker 1 (04:56):
He went off to Oregon State to go to college,
became an engineer, and we lost contact for a long
time in the pre Facebook era. And then he heard
me randomly out outdrive when he was out driving heard
me calling a game for Westwood. Woman says that the
same guy, and then herd Me would say, Yep, that's him.
And then he was able to get in touch with me,
and I got contact with him, and you know, I

(05:18):
was able to strike up the friendship again. And in
the process he's also become a huge, huge Texas long
worn fan. When we were in high school, he used
to call me big Texts and he said, how can
that be in North Carolina? Because I had this Carolina
blue cowboy hat that I would wear on Fridays a
lot of really, yeah, is.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
There any pictures? We say, God know that they do.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
It doesn't exist anymore. I bought it it a Carolina
home football game. We need to bring back that tradition, Craig,
big Carolina blue cover with a white n C on
the front, and I'd walk in the journals going to
eat a big text. He would he call it. He
still calls me Big Texas Day. But anyway, he became
a big, long worn fan. He has always been a
Cowboys fan. When we were growing up in North Carolina,

(05:59):
was a Rams fan and he was a Cowboys fan.
So he got to take great pleasure in my pain
with the Cowboys beating the Rams time after time after
time in the playoffs when it mattered most.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
The Rams beat him once.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
In seventy six, but the Cowboys beat him in seventy three,
seventy five, seventy eight, and so he was able to
take great pleasure in them. But anyway, he now has
gotten into this deal where every year he flies to Austin.
He picks out a weekend when both the Longhorns are
at home and the Cowboys are at home so he

(06:32):
can come to a game and we get together. Oh no,
he has fallen in love with Terry Black's barbecue, so
he may, you know, may spend most of the weekend
over there.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
I don't know, but he.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
But he is coming into town this week, and he's
come to town on some weekends, like one year he
came in that was the year of the fifty seven
fifty six lost to Kansas Oh boy.

Speaker 2 (06:54):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, came in on that. I was ready
to blame him for that one.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
Yeah, But he came in last year, I think of
the Kansas State weekend. I told him was about ready
to blame him that and say you're never coming.

Speaker 3 (07:03):
Back and you're not allowed.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
But he's coming in this weekend for the Florida game,
and then he's going to go out and watch see
Cowboys Eagles on Sunday. And I said, at least in
the case of Sunday, man, are you a clutton for
punishment something like that. He's also going to go to
the basketball game of moornite. So it's a fun weekend. Yeah,
it's fun weekend. He's a big sports family, just like

(07:26):
I am. And and like I said, we were all
celebrating Dodger stuff and that sort of stuff. He's a
really good dude. He's lived in Portland almost his entire
adult life after going to school at Oregon State to
become an engineer and that sort of thing.

Speaker 3 (07:40):
So I mean, looking at Seki tickets, I mean, it's
cheaper to go to a Texas or it's here to
go to a Cowboys game that is a Texas football Yeah,
and tells you how how sad this Cowboys season is
because when they're rolling, the Cowboys are. It's an expensive ticket. Man,
you're looking at just like one hundred bucks for standing
room only, But you can get one hundred dollars and

(08:00):
get yourself a seat an actual this teame on Sunday.
How about that? Also on the text line behind the
end zone, Craig two fifty. That's insane, Yeah, lowest level?

Speaker 2 (08:10):
Hey are you thinking about it?

Speaker 3 (08:11):
No?

Speaker 2 (08:12):
Act? Okay, there's a zero. We have a we have
a woman's basketball game, Yes we did.

Speaker 3 (08:19):
I would rather roches fitz Schaffer's team than whatever they're
in the football field at at and T staty.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
Uh huh uh.

Speaker 1 (08:26):
And then we have some of the Hilts on the
text line, who, in response to a story about the
band who drake nothing but doctor pepper for a long time,
not even water, said it sounds like doctor Pepper man
had several carbonablers. Yes, see what he did there, carbonablers. Okay,

(08:48):
