Speaker 2 (00:42):
A good start.

Speaker 1 (00:42):
Good afternoon, everybody. Welcome to the program here on Sports
Radio AM thirteen under the Zone. My name is Craig Way.
I do thank you very much for joining us. As always,
we're with you each and every weekday afternoon two to
five Monday through Friday. And this week, by the way,
we should point out the Friday program will be a
two to six version of the program and it'll come

(01:06):
away from Dallas from bar m on Maple Avenue. Great
place to watch games and hang out and all that,
and so, like what we did last Thursday down south
at Twin Peaks, we'll bring you a four hour edition
of the program. And like last Thursday, we'll and myself.
We'll have Cameron Parker there, We'll have my card ball harge,

(01:28):
We'll have Mark Henry, the world's strongest pan of course,
Harj and Henry bring you the morning kickoff Monday through
Friday seven am to nine am here on the Zone.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
So we'll be there and we'll.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
Have some other special guests join us as well as
some lifetime Longhorns join us there at bar M on
Maple Avenue. You can find us realase and find it
just west of downtown in a good place to be
the day before Texas.

Speaker 3 (01:52):
Oh you.

Speaker 1 (01:53):
Producer of this program is Jay Herman. How did your
evening go last night? Did you do much event watching
or what?

Speaker 4 (02:03):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (02:03):
I ended up having a good friend of mine over
to the apartment and watching some American League Division Series baseball.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
Something else did, Yeah, it was I was.

Speaker 5 (02:14):
With a Yankee fan who was despondent at the beginning
of the game, of course, and by the end of
the game he was delusionally exuberant, and that and that's
the experience of playoff baseball, Craig, and that's why he
keeps us coming back.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
Yeah, it is.

Speaker 1 (02:27):
And we've had a lot to get to on the
program today. For one thing, obviously, we are never far
away from talking some long one football and we'll do that.
And we do have our text line available if you
like to join in the conversation with a text you
can text the program. You text the word Texas followed

(02:47):
by your question or comment to eight one five three zero.
So text the word Texas follow by your question or
comment to eight one five to three zero. Standard messaging
and data rates may apply. We are to do that
and we are also going to hear from LONGRNS head
coach Steve Sarkisian. Sark does a couple of different media availabilities.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
In fact, he.

Speaker 1 (03:08):
Does three reeal locked in weekly media availabilities. First is
the weekly news conference on Monday from the UT campus.
We broadcast that live every Monday at eleven thirty am.
Our coverage begins at eleven on our long WRNS Monday

(03:29):
Presentation and Mike cardboll Harge joins me for that, and
then of course we bring you Sarks Presser, the press
conference at eleven thirty.

Speaker 2 (03:36):
That's on Mondays.

Speaker 1 (03:37):
And then on this program on Monday afternoon, after we
have brought you the entire news conference from stem to stern,
every question, every answer, all of that sort of stuff,
we bring you in sound bite form the recap of
the press conference on Monday afternoon with Sark's thoughts, his comments.
So that's on Mondays. Tuesdays, we bring you player sound

(04:03):
from player availability. Wednesday is the second of his three
media availabilities. So today, it was just a little while ago,
in fact, that Sark participated in the SEC teleconference, which
is really zooms with all of the coaches, but it
goes back to the day's when he used to dial
coaches up on the phone and call it the teleconference.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
And we'll hear from Sart from the SEC.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
Teleconference about this matchup with Oklahoma and other things that
are going on. So getting his football team back on track.
So we're going to hear those comments from Sark coming
up at the four o'clock hour. He also does a
Thursday media availability via zoom. It's his final availability of

(04:49):
the week, and we'll bring you those comments tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
We'll do that.

Speaker 1 (04:52):
Additionally, there's also long worn weekly his Coaches show that
I co host with him. We that on Wednesday evenings
over on campus, and we'll do that this evening, and
then you'll hear it tomorrow night at seven o'clock and
it re airs Friday at seven, so you'll hear from
the head coaches you do throughout the course of the week.

(05:13):
But in addition to that, we'll talk some more about football,
and then there's other things to get into, as Jake
pointed out, and we'll talk about this coming up here
in just a few minutes. The American League Division Series,
the National League Division Series. None of those series have
been decided yet. The Blue Jays were on the threshold

(05:36):
of it last night. Really looked like they were going
to put the Yankees on the shelf. It didn't happen.
We'll get into more of that in a little bit.
Tigers and Mariners. The Mariners jumped all over Detroit last
night at Comerica Park. They beat the Tigers eight four,
again a little bit interesting towards the end, and again
we'll talk more about that. And then in the National League,

(05:56):
it was a travel day for both the Cubs and Brewers.
Short travel, I would say that's probably a bus ride.
It's ninety miles from Milwaukee to Chicago.

Speaker 5 (06:07):
It'll take them all back to their minor league playing days.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
Yeah, some of those Brewers. That wasn't too long ago.

Speaker 1 (06:13):
You know, when the Dodgers would play the Padres, it's
one hundred and ten miles away. A lot of times
they take a train. There's a train that takes them
down the coast to San Diego.

Speaker 5 (06:23):
When they do that, Yeah, a little more comfortable, a
little yeah, quicker, And I don't know.

Speaker 1 (06:27):
Maybe maybe that's what the Brewers and Cubs did. I
don't know, but anyway, they have game number three of
that series this afternoon, and the Brews are up two
games to none, so they're on the threshold of clinching.
The Cubs must stay alive, must win at Wrigley Field
today to stay alive. And then tonight the Dodgers host

(06:48):
the Phillies with Los Angeles up two games to none,
and so they have a chance to wrap it up
at Dodgers Stadium thing win the night. Phillies have to
win to set up a game for tomorrow. And then
I mentioned the two American League wins Game number four
for both the American League Division series, the Tigers and

(07:11):
Mariners just now getting ready to start, and then the
Yankees and the Blue Jays will play tonight, so they'll
play later on and that's a Game four that the
Yankees have to wins. Is like the Tigers have to
win today on their home turf to set up a
decisive fifth game. If it does happen in both of

(07:31):
those cases, it'll go back to where it's started.

Speaker 2 (07:34):
In each case.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
If Detroit wins today, they'll go back to Seattle, fly
back to Seattle for Game five on Friday night. If
the Yankees win, it'll go back Toronto, back to Toronto
for a Game five on Friday. So that's what would
happen there. Today is only Game four in the Nation League. However,
if the Dodgers and or the Brewers win, that would

(07:58):
end those series.

Speaker 2 (07:59):
They would be weeks.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
But if the Cubs win today at Wrigley Field over Milwaukee,
if the Phillies win tonight in Los Angeles over the Dodgers,
then those two series would have a Game four tomorrow,
even as the American League series are either done or
traveling back to their original destination.

Speaker 5 (08:19):
So there's a chance Craig that today is our last
wall to wall baseball day of the entire twenty twenty
five season.

Speaker 2 (08:26):
Yeah, entirely possible. You're exactly right.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
You could have, you know, because there's all four games
and the first one is now officially underway with Casey
Mice on the mound for the Tigers facing the Seattle
Manas we have more on that, we'll recap those games
from last night because they both had some unique things
happen in them, and especially in the New York Toronto game,

(08:54):
because it looked for all the worlds of the Yankees
were dead in the water, and then that flipped, and
how does it flip? It flipped with the bat of
the one and only Aaron Judge. But something set that
up first. So we'll get to.

Speaker 2 (09:06):
All of that.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
We'll talk about all of that, and again we will
take your questions, your thoughts or comments, not just necessarily
on the baseball If you want to talk longer on
football and have a question, that's fine. The NFL, we're
gonna hear from Jerry Jones hypothetically, Yeah, and fundamentally, Jerry
got in a little hot water for what he called
an Inadverton gesture. I think that's the name of a

(09:29):
band playing at acl Fest. Inadvertent gesture.

Speaker 5 (09:34):
Yeah, they're they're just opening it up at emos or stops.

Speaker 1 (09:38):
So anyway, we'll hear from Jerry Jones this afternoon. We
have inconceivable this hour coming up, so we'll do that.
And there's more of a sports presence an inconceivable today
than I think has either ever happened or certainly the

(09:59):
more of a presence than in a long time on
that of a sports presence. So you'll hear all of
that and more, and we'll give away another four pack
of tickets to Texas Stars Hockey when they play the
Grand Rapids Griffins this Saturday at the ATV Center in

(10:20):
Cedar Park. So well that will tell you how you
can win that coming up in the four o'clock hour
as well.

Speaker 2 (10:25):
So we got all that on deck and a lot more.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
Glad to have you with us on a Yacht Rock
Wednesday here on Sports Radio AM thirteen under the Zone
and where you can always listen to us for absolutely
free of charge Gratis on the iHeartRadio app to.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
Strike this it's a.

Speaker 4 (10:43):
Experiences It's the Craig Way Show with the voice of

(11:14):
the Jaxas Longhorns and all of Vainer broadcasting.

Speaker 1 (11:17):
Craig Well, I think Aaron Judge's home run got caught
between the Moon and New York City, the super Moon
in New York City.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
It's a yacht Rock Wednesday.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
So there's one of the Mount Rushmore guys of yacht rock,
Christopher Cross. Yeah, and how apropos is it on a
yacht Rock Wednesday to have Arthur's theme there?

Speaker 2 (11:46):
It's actually Aaron's theme. Aaron Judge with that.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
Home run off the foul pole that helped turn the
game around, really, really and truly. Before that, the Yankees
were in deep, deep trouble. They were down six to
one to Toronto. And here are the Blue Jays on
the verge of not only winning the game, but sweeping

(12:13):
out the Yankees. Toronto had been thirty nine to zero
this season when they've led by at least five runs.
The Yankees had not won a playoff game after trailing
by at least five runs since the twenty ten American
League Championships. Wow, and it became the fifth team in
history to overcome a five run deficit when facing elimination

(12:38):
because they were down six to one, I.

Speaker 2 (12:41):
Know one of the teams on that list.

Speaker 5 (12:43):
Yes, the twenty twelve Saint Louis Cardinals in Game five
of the National League Division Series came back from down
six to one for my first true sports heartbreak.

Speaker 2 (12:53):
Yeah, that's right, against the Nationals. Again against the Nationals.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
That's right. It's funny. It's a reverse elimination. Last year,
when the Dodgers were down to the Yankees in Game five,
six Tons again came back and won the game to
eliminate the Yankees to win the World Series. Was that
that would be reverse elimination on that, But it was
a couple of crazy things that happened about that, because

(13:19):
what really changed it they got two runs in the
third and uh that cut it to six'. Three but
what really made it happen was because of a drop
fly ball and the error opened the. Door the error
opened the, door by the, Way, uh there was an

(13:40):
error earlier that helped The yankees get a run and
h then there were Two toronto errors in that, inning
And Anthony santenderia had also had a diving attempt on
a double By Cody. Bellinger but prior to, that here
The yankees a cut back to six to three and

(14:03):
then up Comes Aaron judge because of the drop flyball
at the play with two outs and, said you just
never know with the wind if it's going to push
it fowl or keep curving or. Not BUT i guess
a couple of ghosts out there in monument part helped
kind of keep that.

Speaker 2 (14:25):
Fair what a movie like.

Speaker 5 (14:27):
ANSWER i turned to my friend when that home run
went AND i, said oh my, gosh that was like the.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
Natural that was the ball hitting the lights.

Speaker 1 (14:33):
Out, yeah in this case it hit the foul pole
and so it was a three run. Homer Jash, chisholm
who then came up later and hit the home run
to give them the lead in the sixth said Of
judge had, said he just shows that he's just. Unbelievable
we all went over the video about ten times in
the dugout after he hit its crazy because it was

(14:54):
up and in on, him but he got turned on
it and knocked it out of the.

Speaker 5 (15:00):
Ballpark it was it was really far up and In
i've read that no pitch that speed and that far
in had ever been hit out for a home.

Speaker 2 (15:08):
Run, yeah it's, amazing all, Right so.

Speaker 1 (15:12):
We've got to we've got a piece of sound here
now is this is This Aaron, boone the, Manager Aaron.

Speaker 5 (15:17):
Boone after the, game you'll hear him give kind of
his opening wow remarks and then get asked, for you,
know his perspective on on The Aaron judge home, run.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
That emotional roller coaster to stay alive, There, yeah obviously.

Speaker 6 (15:32):
Awesome just just the continue to keep your nose down
and compete when it's not looking, great and just a
lot of really good quality at bats to work our
way back into. IT i, thought some important plays in
the field and and and the, bullpen just.

Speaker 2 (15:50):
Piecing it together.

Speaker 6 (15:52):
So, well you, know without you, KNOW i, think without
really over taxing anyone, too which which obviously is big
going into another game, tomorrow perhaps.

Speaker 1 (16:02):
No swing bigger Than Aaron judges today in that fourth,
inning off the, bat what are you thinking when you
see that ball go towards left?

Speaker 2 (16:09):
Field are you thinking that that that's staying?

Speaker 6 (16:10):
FAIR i, did because it's it held right, away and
So i'm you, KNOW i have such a good angle
from WHERE i sit on fair foul down the left field,
line SO i was kind of giving it some body,
language BUT i felt like it was going to hold
and the win most of the. Night you, know you

(16:30):
saw in The barger pop fly the ball was carrying
the left and that at bat, WELL i looked up
the flag was, dead so probably keeping it from maybe
maybe blowing it foul or or even, deeper but just
a really good swing to keep himself tight to that,
ball to be able to not spin off and just

(16:52):
hook it and to keep it.

Speaker 1 (16:53):
Fair put more, Succinctly Cody bellinger, said, QUOTE i would just,
saying hit the effing foul.

Speaker 2 (17:01):
Pole so that's what he, said and he.

Speaker 1 (17:06):
Did and Then Jash chisholm hits the home run and
then they just turn it on after.

Speaker 2 (17:10):
That they win by a score of nine to.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
Six so now It's game four tonight and The yankees
Have Cam schlitler going, tonight who was just brilliant last
week in that decisive third game of The wildcard series
against The Red, sox went eight innings and that and
then The Blue jays have to kind of shake it

(17:37):
off and go back to you, know they know that
there is enough of a cushion if they were to
lose the. Game they do Have game five at home In,
toronto which would Be friday. Night but when a team
loses a significant edge in a postseason, series you just
feel that emotional, momentum momentimum the entire series. SHIFTS i

(17:58):
Think toronto feels like that he got A the thing
that's interesting about this for The Blue jays is That John,
schneider their, manager was definitely playing to win the, game
especially when they got up six to.

Speaker 2 (18:08):
One so he used.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
A lot of bullpen and today is set up to
be a bullpen day For.

Speaker 5 (18:16):
JAYS i, mean, now nobody looking down this box, score
nobody threw more than twenty. Pitches, yeah After Shane bieber
left the. Game And Shane bieber left the game after
throwing fifty four, Pitches so he could be available in
a game, five you would assume based on. That, yeah,
YEAH i know he's coming off injury, too.

Speaker 1 (18:37):
But, yeah so, well and then they may at that
point may on or on short resco with, Yes, savage that's,
right they could in game five if it has to
come down to. That we'll, see we'll. See so The
yankee state, alive and so they play uh Game game,

(19:02):
four it'll be it'll start just past six o'clock our
time this.

Speaker 2 (19:05):
Evening do you even pitch to judge the rest of the.

Speaker 5 (19:08):
SERIES i Know Baron boone got some flag for pitching
To Vlad, junior who put The Blue jays in front
in this.

Speaker 1 (19:13):
Game, WELL i just think it depends on the. Situation that's,
rightly if you can work around if you try to
work around. It but it's it's gonna be tough to do,
that all.

Speaker 3 (19:21):
Right.

Speaker 1 (19:21):
Uh the other series is also in the game four
and they're underway right now on scoreless In detroit between
The tigers And, mariners and, uh The mariners are trying
to close this. Out, uh and uh they got they
got a home run from the big dumper and we're
gonna have more on that coming. Up and inconceivable and,

(19:43):
uh they they Got Juhennio suarez with a home, run
and they pitched really. Well tigers made it interesting in
the Ninth. Uh the reason they made it, interesting it's just.

Speaker 2 (20:02):
You had.

Speaker 1 (20:04):
On the mound for The, jays not excuse, me for The.
Mariners in the ninth, inning you Had Caleb, ferguson who
used to pitch for The, Dodgers Caleb ferguson channeling his
Inner blake trining.

Speaker 3 (20:22):
Phase.

Speaker 1 (20:23):
Four batters did not, retire one, walk one gave up
three hits and responsible for three.

Speaker 5 (20:30):
Runs, yeah gave out a four pitch walk to the second,
batter eight run, lead four pitch walk to the to
the two hole hitter right before.

Speaker 1 (20:38):
Tarkleson and you know the thing is he used to
do a lot of that with The dodgers, too And
Dave roberts showed a lot of confidence in, him just
as he has Him Blake. Trining but The mariners were
able to close it out, afterwards so they went eight.
Four so they ARE i went away from advancing to
only their second Ever American League Championship. Series and right

(21:00):
now they're in the top of the is it the
second or the third? Inning right now they're playing at
the top of the, second top of the second inning and.
Scoreless they're At Comerica park In, Detroit so they're in
the top of the second inning there With seattle at
the plate and one. Out and we'll keep you updated on, that.
Okay so that's where that is. Now in The National,

(21:22):
league The brewers And cubs play In. Chicago we Had
Keith mortland on the program with us yesterday and he
said he thinks The cubs will thrive in the friendly,
confines that they'll get it turned back. Around you were
asking yesterday about the change in the pitching, plan And,

(21:43):
priest who was originally the scheduled starter and they pulled
him out of, that is going to start For milwaukee this.
Afternoon so they're still in a comfortable, situation up two
games to, none and we'll see if that's ultimately going
to be the case when the try to keep it.

Speaker 5 (22:00):
Going, yeah and remember my concern For Jackson. Curio, yeah
well he's. Fine he's doing just fine with that three run.

Speaker 2 (22:09):
Homer.

Speaker 3 (22:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (22:10):
Yeah and so so, anyway That cubs and The brewers
will start right about just after four o'clock this. Afternoon
and then then there's The dodgers in The, phillies and
they played game three tonight In Los. Angeles philadelphia was
the two. Seed they dominated The dodger. JOURNING i think

(22:32):
they won five of the six or four of the
six and and pretty much dominated. Them they need to
turn it back around starting tonight In Los angeles where
their season is.

Speaker 2 (22:45):
Over they're down two games to.

Speaker 1 (22:47):
None AND i don't know if you heard it the
other night when they were down those Lovable philadelphia. Fans
here's a team that won ninety four ball games this,
year and they're booing them mercilessly as they trailed in the.
Game Bryce harpros asked about, that and he said he

(23:08):
didn't have A VEGAS i love her. FANS i boo
myself WHEN i get. Out i'll probably get booed tomorrow night. Too, well,
yeah that of course would be In Los. Angeles so
and somebody, said, well is a change of venue a
good thing because of? That and he, goes, YEAH i
don't know about. That he, said we got some of
the best fans of. Baseball they make me play, better
SO i enjoy. It they show up for us every.

(23:30):
Day they spend their hard earned dollar to come watch us.
Play they expect greatness out of, us AND i expect
greatness out of myself and my teammates as. Well so,
anyway that's we'll see how that.

Speaker 2 (23:42):
Goes, yeah.

Speaker 5 (23:43):
Yea i'm A moto Versus Aaron nola, tonight AND i
was just looking back to SEE i felt like remembering
That Aaron nola's had a lot of postseason struggles in
a fill of. Uniform it's not as bad AS i
remember a career four point two, era but the last
couple Seasons he's given up a lot of long balls

(24:03):
in the, playoffs four home runs in twenty twenty, three
two more in twenty twenty. Four in his postseason.

Speaker 1 (24:10):
Starts you, know in regular season games against The, dodgers
he's been pretty. Good so we'll see if they can
get to him. Tonight, meanwhile you, know that other question
comes out as about the. CLOSER a Rookie. Sasaki now
Rookie sasaki closed out games won In game. Two even
Through game, Two Dave roberts was reluctant to actually call

(24:32):
him the. Closer but while he hasn't officially designated him the,
closer he did say yesterday that he is definitely the
primary option now is the way it was, described he,
Said but that's contingent on his. Workload he, said, quote
we have to WIN x amount of games to secure a.

(24:54):
Championship right, now THAT x amount is, nine they have
nine more than gonna, win and he's not going to
close every. Game it's just not, feasible so you've got
to use other. Guys, well if he closes tonight and they,
win they're going to get two or three days.

Speaker 2 (25:09):
Off then who knows what would.

Speaker 1 (25:13):
Happen but he's probably right in a best of seven
series in THE, nlc as he probably wouldn't close out
every game and the same thing would happen in the.

Speaker 5 (25:19):
World so is he just so scarred from this bullpen
over the course of the year that he can't believe
his own?

Speaker 2 (25:26):
Eyes, well some.

Speaker 1 (25:27):
Would say, That and yet here he is trying, Now
blake trying it again with a three run lead in
the ninth inning and trying to allow the first three
batters to reach and that got cut down to one.
Run Alex vessia, followed he retired two of, those of,
course got the big wheel play involved in, that and
Then sasaki entered the game recorded the final out what
in what amounted to his fifth major league appearance ever

(25:53):
since transitioning to the bullpen In. September, so but remember
they also Have. Mt shean and the bullpenny he pitched
the other. Night Clayton kershaw has yet to pitch, yep
but he could. Go so, yeah there's the thought about.
That so they played. Tonight that's an eight o'clock start,
Tonight game three In Los Angeles dodgers In phillies update From.

(26:18):
Detroit seattle has taking one nothing. LEAD i saw what
Bo naylor had a, double did he?

Speaker 5 (26:23):
Not yees first Hit Josh naylor his first hitch of
the entire.

Speaker 2 (26:28):
Postseason Brother bow plays For.

Speaker 5 (26:29):
Cleveland, yeah and he was driven in By dominic Can.
Zone and just Now Victor, roblace as he's done throughout his,
career narrowly gets out of the way of getting hit
by a pitch and he's talking into The detroit. Dugout
so we've got a potential for some tension.

Speaker 1 (26:46):
Here So seattle leads that one nothing as they bat
in the top half of the second. Inning and by the,
Way Casey might is already at thirty four pitches as
he works in the second, inning so it's pitch counts
on the rise as.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
Well we'll keep you updated on.

Speaker 1 (27:01):
That but up next we bring You, inconceivable which does
have a definite sports theme to it on The Shot

swoll edition of, it you, know.

Speaker 2 (27:35):
A Talking he's saying that Because Mark henry's.

Speaker 1 (27:45):
World's strongest span AND i will tell you, this if
you haven't Seen Mark henry. Lately the dude looks like
he's wasting. Away he. Says he's still trying to get
down to trying to get down to like three. Hundred
he was over four hundred at one. Point but he
he looks. Chiseled the dude does he always looks chosel

(28:06):
BUT i mean he really does. Not he looks, great you,
know probably from taking those super. Beats you, Know i've
been taking the super. Beats I'm i'm trying to get
there as. Well it's that's all about blood flow and
and being heart healthy and all of those kinds of.

Speaker 2 (28:22):
Things or the super. Beats, hey you didn't mention those
in your game day.

Speaker 1 (28:25):
Routine oh, yeah so, yeah in my game day, routine
ALL i do THAT i do the super beats thing
in the morning and then at night because it's twice a.

Speaker 2 (28:34):
Day the choos and the.

Speaker 1 (28:36):
Tart cherry chews and the powder that you may, saying
all that kind of.

Speaker 2 (28:39):
Stuff it's it's. Great SO.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
I you, know that's the part of the routine is
LIKE i, Said i'll put the laptop And i'll put
the iPad in the, booth and he got my broadcast
charts and look That i'm gonna go over, things uh With,
roger and then you just kind of take in the
atmosphere and then you get ready to call the game
and get into the mindset of it as. Well and
about two hours prior to KICK i make my way

(29:06):
down to the field AND i record the pregame interview
With Steve Sarkashan sark is great about. That he has
been more accessible than virtually any Coach i've ever dealt
with any football coach when it comes that close to.
Kickoff all the coaches That i've worked, with all of,
Them Matt, Brown Charlie, Strong Tom herman And sark were

(29:30):
all great to work, with believe it or. Not no
matter how you may have felt about any of them
individually or collectively as head, coaches they were always very
very giving of their time or whatever to WHAT i
needed to. Do it's just they liked recording the pregame
interview a little further away from, kickoff not even on game.

Speaker 2 (29:52):
Day they wanted to stay in the. ZONE i Understand
sark looks at it. Differently his look at is it
gets him in the. Zone he told me.

Speaker 1 (30:04):
He wanted to record the pregame interview two hours prior to.
Kick NOW i found out two. Things first of, all
that's another thing out of many that he adopted From Nick.
Saban saban did the same. Thing believe it or, not
is dialed in as Coach saban. Was he liked doing
his pregame interview two hours before kick So Eli gold

(30:27):
told me that when he was the voice of The
Crimson tide And Chris stewart as, well And.

Speaker 2 (30:33):
Sark said the same thing That nick.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
Said he was more in a game mindset than if
you do it like two days out or. Whatever So
sark even said to, me he, Goes i'll be better
When i'm that close to kickoff THAN i would, be you,
know a couple of days. Out so we do it
about an hour forty five before kick get the latest
stuff from.

Speaker 2 (30:56):
Him now the team is feeling the physical thing and
ready to. Go and all.

Speaker 1 (31:00):
That so it's, good it really Works it really works out.
Well but that's part of the routine of all of.
That and SO i you, Know i've had folks ask
me about, that and and for The Red river, rivalry
it doesn't change that much on game, day it doesn't
change that.

Speaker 2 (31:20):
Much now.

Speaker 1 (31:23):
Getting to Where sarcu, is sometimes it's a little easier
to go ahead and do it by the locker room
instead of on the field there In dallas because it's a,
zoo it's a, circus and there's lots of stuff going,
on so it's a little bit easier to do it
inside than on the. Field it just it depends on
the game and all all of.

Speaker 2 (31:41):
That kind of.

Speaker 1 (31:42):
Stuff so, anyway that's that's all part of that game day.
Routine but in the case Of, friday AS i started to,
say we kind of have an enlarged version of this.
Program it'll go four hours two to six from bar
m On Maple avenue In. Dallas great lace not only
to watch The TEXAS ou game if you don't have

(32:02):
tickets for, it but we just kind of discovered the
place last. YEAR i, mean all credit goes To Mike,
Cardball harge and his friend owns and operates.

Speaker 2 (32:14):
The place bar m For. MIKE i, see, yeah so,
yeah but.

Speaker 1 (32:18):
It's it's great and a great patio and barr atmosphere as.
Well and that's On Maple. Avenue Bar m is and
that's where we'll do the show On, friday and it'll
be a four hour edition from two until, six and
it'll Have Cameron parker And Mike, Hardball harge And Mark

that if you're driving up To dallas On friday At
texas ou, weekend carry us as long as you could
as far as you could before losing us on your drive.

Show friday, morning of doing the morning kickoff On friday.
Morning so they're going up On. Thursday i'll be going
up On friday. Morning and it's LIKE i, said it's
always an interesting. Thing and and there's another part of

(33:53):
The texas ou routine that happens every, year and it's
a it's a media luncheon that's put on by The
Cotton Bowl Athletic. Seation but it's not like your typical dress,
up more formalized media luncheon where there's this program and
all this other kind of. Stuff now it's not like
that at. All it's real low key and casual and

(34:15):
media just show up at the place and you just
put on an aim tag and you go in there
and they have great barbecue and they have great text
max and it's all free and you just go in
there and hang out and see people you hadn't seen in,

(34:36):
there And i'll See baby L offenberg there And i'll
See Chuck, cooperstein the voice Of Dallas, mavericks WHO i
saw In gainesville Last, saturday and then other. People and

of and the winner rup back In, february The Wilber

(34:57):
Snip award that's presented for contributions to college baseball and
in my years of broadcasting college, baseball and they announced
me it's the winner that, well they hadn't been able
to actually give me the. AWARD i think they were,
hoping AS i was certainly hoping that i'd be In,
omaha that the Long horns would have made It omaha
and they were going to give it to me. There,
well the Long wruns obviously didn't make it To. Omaha

(35:18):
But Bo carter and the people who put all that
together contact and, said.

Speaker 2 (35:21):
Hey are you one of that media Lunch AND i, said,
YEAH i go over here and they said we're going

Speaker 1 (39:24):
Envelope yeah from office. Depot, Yeah texas leads the series sixty,
four fifty one and, five sixty four to fifty.

Speaker 3 (39:33):
One.

Speaker 1 (39:33):
Five, now it is fair to point Out oklahoma in
the last twenty six meetings has won seventeen of the twenty.
Six it's seventeen and nine there in the last twenty.
Six but, anyway this will be the one hundred and
twenty first.

Speaker 2 (39:47):
Meeting all, right.

Speaker 1 (39:48):
Coming, up we're going to, say by the, way, Uh
seattle Threatening. Detroit it's still the one nothing ball game
in the fourth, inning but The mariners had the bases
loaded with nobody.

Speaker 2 (39:58):
Out, Yeah Kyle finnigan's in the.

Speaker 5 (40:00):
Game that is a you, know high leverage guy with
Aj hinge knowing he has to manage like there's no
tomorrow or in this, case No.

Speaker 1 (40:06):
Friday, yeah because there won't be not for them if
they if they don't win this game to even the
series at two.

Speaker 2 (40:12):
Games.

Speaker 1 (40:13):
Apiece so, anyway so that's where it, is and we'll
keep you updated on. That but up next we're gonna
hear From cowboys Owner Jerry johonness and we have to
have a requisite Weekly cowboys temperature update From Cameron. Parker you,
know he's the long, suffering AS i, say self Loathing cowboys,

(40:35):
Fan so we'll hear. That by the, Way seattle has
added to run on a ground ball double. Play The
tigers are able to get two, outs but The mariners
do pick up another. Run they now lead to, nothing
and they have runners at second and third with two
down in the. Inning there so a runner at third
with two down in the. Inning all, Right coming, up

(40:57):
we'll visit With cameron to talk Some cowboys and we'll
hear From Jerry jones when we continue on thirteen under
the zone Updating Seattle Detroit tigers were able to get
out of the inning without any further damage. Done marins
had the bases loaded with nobody, out but they only
got one run out of it on a grab all double.
Play and so that's where that. Is and right now

(41:20):
it's still to. Nothing mariners lead The. Tigers it's in
the bottom of the fourth. Inning, okay it's important to
get the perspective each week on The Dallas cowboys from
our own self, loathing long Suffering cowboys fans slash anti
Fan Cameron, parker who is. Here but before we start

(41:44):
with your, perspective your take on The, Cowboys, CAM i
want you to hear From Jerry. Jones this was from
his radio regular weekly radio appearance on one of five
three of The. Fan remember last year when we're doing
all the stuff where he threatened to fire the, guys
which he had no power to. DO i can get
somebody else in air to do, this that kind of.

Speaker 2 (42:06):
Thing so.

Speaker 1 (42:10):
He got fined two hundred and fifty dollars for flipping
Off jets fans in the. Game and he on his radio,
appearance his weekly appearance there he addressed the middle finger.

Speaker 7 (42:28):
Incident you know that was unfortunate that that was kind
of a exchange with our fans out in front of.
Us there was a swarm of cowboy fans out in,
front Not jet, Fans cowboy, fans and the entire stadium

(42:49):
was brimming with the enthusiasm Of, cowboys and certainly.

Speaker 3 (42:53):
Late in the, game and that was inverten on my.
Part because.

Speaker 7 (43:00):
That was right after we'd made our last touchdowns and
we were all excited. About there wasn't any antagonistic issue
or anything like. THAT i just put up the wrong
show on the. Hand but that was, inadvertently And i'm
not kidding it. Was if you want to call it,
accidentally you can call it. Accidental but he got straight

(43:22):
around pretty. Quick i've had a chance to look at,
it got straighten around pretty. Quick but the intention was
thumbs up and then basically pointing at our fans because
everybody was jumping up and down.

Speaker 2 (43:34):
Excited, okay if we're to Take jerriot his word on,
that and who Takes jrriot his word on those? Things
but if we were to Take terry's word on, That i'm.

Speaker 1 (43:45):
Confused hell so you're telling me it was cowboy fans
you're excited about and you're flipping off your own. Fans
is that what the deal is? Here or you just
said he put up the wrong digits or. Whatever he
meant to do thumbs, up but you did the one
fingered salute because you have to make a physical effort

(44:07):
to do, that to to flip the. Bird you got.
THAT i don't think that happens accidentally does.

Speaker 8 (44:14):
IT i think a lot Of cowboys fans have inadvertently
Given Jerry jones the same hen signal anytime he's showing
on THEIR tv.

Speaker 2 (44:20):
Screen, well they've done that on.

Speaker 1 (44:22):
Purpose, yeah, purpose that's definitely not an advertin, uh BUT
i don't.

Speaker 2 (44:27):
Understand his explanation of that. Deal do you see that the?
Video it's.

Speaker 8 (44:30):
Weird it's it's almost Like jerry kind of forgot which
fingers he was using and when he when he did
the signal because he was pointing At jets fans the
whole time in the video and. Stuff it's just you
you can't make any of this stuff. Up this entire
season has just been hilarious in terms of the storylines

(44:51):
that have come out from The, cowboys And Jerry jones
adds another. ONE i, mean here they, are they're coming
off a winner with The, jets and yet On, Monday,
Tuesday wednesday, morning we're talking About Jerry.

Speaker 2 (45:04):
Jones He a'm.

Speaker 8 (45:06):
Telling you he's the best football.

Speaker 2 (45:10):
Showman who doesn't actually PLAY nfl.

Speaker 1 (45:13):
Football, okay all, RIGHT i want you to hear another
SoundBite from. This he was asked About dak and the
comparisons To Tony romo When romo was in his, prime
and is he playing at AN mvp.

Speaker 7 (45:29):
Level, YEAH i think it is a very. COMPARISON i
think he is playing at that. Level he is our
obviously right there at the very top of the strengths
of this.

Speaker 3 (45:44):
Team and what a place to have. It of all
of the places you could have it going.

Speaker 7 (45:50):
Well for, you that would be the one you would
pick to give you a chance to be in the.
Playoffs and so if we can continue that and improve
a lot around him throughout the not only the on
the offensive side of the, ball but the defensive side
of the. Ball, LOOK i played with absent his best,

(46:11):
receivers perhaps what we thought was mixed. Receivers for him
to step in and make that kind of adjustment does
give you the kind of secure feeling about going forward
that you want to have at that, position and you
can build around, that and it's a part of the

(46:32):
team that when you feel good about, it.

Speaker 3 (46:34):
Get double whammy in terms of.

Speaker 1 (46:36):
Confidence, yeah there's some double whammy there From jerry about.
That what do you make about? THAT i, Mean dak
is obviously playing. WELL i, mean AND i don't even
know how you feel about the whole. Thing with how
you fell About romo and comparisons and all that other
kind of.

Speaker 8 (46:54):
Stuff, well it's, Funny craig That dak made his one
hundred and twenty seven star as The cowboys starting quarterback On,
sunday WHICH i believe is the same number Starts Tony romo.
Had they have almost the same identical. Record Tony romo
in one hundred and twenty seven starts seventy eight, wins

(47:16):
forty nine, Losses Dak prescott seventy eight, wins forty eight
losses in one tie that happened two weeks, Ago and
if not For Matt lafleur not knowing how they run a,
Clock dak would also be seventy eight in forty. Nine
so obviously they're not the same identical. Quarterback BUT i
mean here they. Are cowboys once again have a fantastic,

(47:39):
Offense dak is playing, well and their defense is, terrible
and the front office again has made poor decision after poor,
decision just like under Twenty, romo and just like Under Dak.
Prescott if only only we just had some evidence to
know this was probably gonna happen, Again.

Speaker 1 (47:55):
Craig, okay so let's get your temperature right. Now on this,
team they're.

Speaker 2 (48:03):
Two two and.

Speaker 1 (48:03):
One they play At carolina This. Sunday The panthers are
two and. Three, who by the, way if a Former
cowboy's running the ball pretty, Well Rico, dawdle who is doing?
That so The cowboys have that and a chance to
get above the five hundred. Mark how are you feeling about?

Speaker 8 (48:21):
This, well they'd be a team that has zero wins last,
week So i'm not going to get two carried away in.
That and even If Javonte williams And Dak prescott played,
well you hope, so because The jets are a, terrible terrible,
TEAM i don't. KNOW i think they could be walking
into an upset. Here panthers have went won to their
last three. Games cowboys team maybe thilling themselves a little.

(48:44):
Bit carolina comes in and pulls out the. UPSET i don't.
Know we'll, see but you expect them to win this.
Game but, again they're they're playing The east a part
of the, schedules so this is actually supposed to be
a playoff.

Speaker 2 (48:56):
Team they're gonna win these. Games But i'm still not
sold in this team at.

Speaker 1 (49:00):
All would we should we think with The panthers this
week In, charlotte followed by The commanders at. Home they
win by those. Games both are winnable. Games they get
the four to two and one. CAMP i don't think
they're reading The.

Speaker 8 (49:17):
COMMANDERS i Think Jayden daniels another another week of staying
if he can stay.

Speaker 1 (49:22):
HEALTHY i think The commanders. Terrible They're. Cowboys defense is so.
Bad it's just so. Bad give up twenty two points
to The jets justin, fields but they're. Terrible defense is.
Terrible are are you And jake gonna do like a gentleman's?
Bet you know when The cowboys play The? Commanders?

Speaker 2 (49:38):
NO i don't think. So, No.

Speaker 5 (49:39):
NO i mean the problem is that The commander's side
is taken By.

Speaker 2 (49:44):
Cameron we can't both be both The.

Speaker 8 (49:47):
Commanders i'm reading For carolina this This, sunday And i'll
BE i was rooting for The jets last week and
unfortunate The cowboys won that.

Speaker 2 (49:53):
Game but this is where we're. AT i, MEAN i
THINK i might like The cowboys more than you. Can
And i'm The commanders. FAN i don't think Any cowboy
fans really like The cowboys right.

Speaker 8 (50:02):
Now And i'm telling you LIKE i warned you, Guys
coway fans are getting sucked back, in you, know, Like,
okay maybe the team's a little bit, better the defense
is getting.

Speaker 2 (50:11):
Better it was The. Jets it was The New York.

Speaker 1 (50:14):
Jets aaron Glenn is with the FIRST nfl coach in
history in his first year to give up over what
was this to at over like twenty something points in
the first his first four games or over thirty.

Speaker 5 (50:26):
Points they're clearly worse under him than they were last.

Speaker 1 (50:29):
Year he's a defensive minded, coach, Right how does this keep?
Happening where teams will hire a defensive minded coach or
an offensive minded coach and the side of the ball
they're supposed to be a specialist and are absolutely. Terrible
and it's very interesting to me how that works.

Speaker 2 (50:44):
Out, okay are you watching much of the baseball?

Speaker 1 (50:48):
Playoffs by the, way The mariners are just up the
lead to three, nothing the big dumper with AN rbi
double to get, home a third run and AN rbi
single and it is three.

Speaker 2 (50:58):
Nothing, seatle you watch much of the?

Speaker 3 (51:00):
Playoffs?

Speaker 8 (51:01):
YEAH i think baseball postseason IS i think the best
postseason in all. Sports even you, Know i'm not the
Biggest yankee, fan but judges equalizing home.

Speaker 1 (51:12):
Run we were texting about last, Night. CORREGT i mean
that thing was absolutely.

Speaker 8 (51:15):
Blasted you, know in The bronx it's just such, provides
such great. Theater and then Even Jazz, chisholm you, know
who was benched In game one against The Boston Red,
sox puts them, up you, know the go ahead run.
Yesterday and then With, seattle you, know technically A rangers,
rival but a franchise that has struggled so much in

(51:38):
this month for the last like two decades to finally
win at home and now on the verge of AN.
ALCS i Think Blue Jays seattle would be. FUN i
love What toronto has, done you, KNOW i Love Vladie Grew.
Junior it would be a lot of. Fun and then
on THE nlcs, SIDE i know you're feeling pretty good
aout Your dodgers right, now AND i don't know what's

(51:58):
going on With.

Speaker 1 (51:58):
PHILADELPHIA i don't, either and it all does is make
me nervous because they're they're. There one went away from,
that SO i you, know you can only feel so.
GOOD i guess he and by the way you look At,
milwaukee they look great.

Speaker 8 (52:10):
They may be the best team in baseball in the record,
season AND i felt like they did not get any
coverage at all throughout the entire.

Speaker 2 (52:17):
Season but, Hey Dodgers, brewers that'll that'll be a lot of.

Speaker 3 (52:19):
Fun.

Speaker 1 (52:20):
Uh what do you make of The rangers hire A
Skip schumacher's. MANAGER i like it going a little bit,
younger which was.

Speaker 8 (52:28):
NICE i, mean what what both she was able to
do In, texas you, know bring Him World series. CHAMPIONSHIP
i think my question is the off season in terms
of player, management BECAUSE i Think chrishong's done a great,
job BUT i think you put a too much stock
into certain members of That World series team and thought, That,

(52:48):
okay you, know maybe two years ago as an, anomaly
they're gonna bounce back this, year and they. Didn't SO
i would like to see a pretty big roster turnover
offensively from From texas this off. Season and it appears
they got the right owner that's willing, to you, know
put the bill for.

Speaker 1 (53:06):
Them, okay all, right So cowboys win this, weekend you're
not going to feel any. BIT i saw The panthers
play two weeks.

Speaker 2 (53:14):
Ago, NO.

Speaker 1 (53:16):
I think they've been down like seventeen points every game
for some, reason and Sometimes panthers find a way to.

Speaker 8 (53:22):
Win sometimes they. Don't all My panther friends are completely
out in this. Team they're out on canal as the head.
Coach so this could be a we had AN nfl
Coach farty at this.

Speaker 1 (53:36):
Season uh not, yet not, yet we haven't had AN
NFL i.

Speaker 2 (53:42):
Think The cardinals might have Saved. Callahan. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 8 (53:48):
Worst COLLAPSES i think in AN nfl, history and that
came between The. CARDINALS i, mean Poor Mario dermocado on
the one yard.

Speaker 2 (53:57):
Line have you guys.

Speaker 8 (53:58):
Figured out what the issue is why people keep dropping
the footballs before the goal?

Speaker 1 (54:01):
Line, hey, listen if you're talking about The, rams give
credit to the former long Warn Alfred. Collins he's the
one that separated the ball for the forty nine ers. There,
now he did slap him in the, face but they
didn't didn't call.

Speaker 2 (54:11):
That you don't call.

under The zone in The iHeartRadio App. America one of
the yacht rock, Regulars Sister Golden, hair was a.

Speaker 2 (56:06):
Big hit of.

Speaker 1 (56:07):
Theirs it was great seeing them perform that last year
and saw them there at The moody Acl Moody.

Speaker 2 (56:13):
Theater it was great to see that as.

Speaker 1 (56:14):
Well on the text, line going all the way back
to the one we had In The, inconceivable the story
about the Baby jaguar that was saved that had been
shot several times and basically left the Diet a river
and it was rescued there In brazil by holding, on

(56:34):
getting it to hold on to a flotation advice while
they rolled the boat to shore and then gotted some
treatment and hopefully it'll. Recover somebody had pointed out so
my bassat hound was rescued in similar, conditions, heartworm, buckshots.
Starving the man who found them paid for his, recovery
then handed him to a rescue, group WHERE i adopted.

(56:56):
HIM i never got to thank that. Man the dog
never went hungry. Again he died at sixty five.

Speaker 2 (57:01):
Pounds. Said it changed my, life no doubt about.

Speaker 1 (57:04):
It and if you'll love, animals you, KNOW i, LOOK
i have a dog that's twelve years old, Now minister snails,
there and she's, great and she helped me get through
some tough. TIMES i mentioned that this being the ninth
anniversary of losing my, wife and she was close to
my first wife and then maybe close to her than,

(57:25):
me and we bonded more after that at that. Time
so that dog means a lot to, me and you,
know our animals do mean a lot to. Us Coach palace,
SAYS i was sad WHEN i heard of your wife
all those years. Back god bless you, all love. Him
prayers to. All you don't have to mention, that, Listen,
NO i appreciate. IT i definitely appreciate the nice, things

(57:47):
AND i even appreciate mentions Of Jerry. Jones somebody, SAID
i do Believe jerry when he says it was to
a swarm Of cowboys.

Speaker 2 (57:54):
Fans he's been giving us the bird the past thirty five.

Speaker 5 (57:59):
Years oh, well hypathetically if you wanted to go back that.

Speaker 1 (58:05):
Far, hypothetically, Fundamentally, yeah that's.

Speaker 5 (58:09):
Good, yeah it's a great. Text, yeah it really. Is
why don't we hear a little more From?

Speaker 1 (58:18):
Jerry this is from his radio APPEARANCE i want to
fight through the fan In Dallas Fort.

Speaker 2 (58:22):
Worth he was as considering.

Speaker 1 (58:25):
Injuries, uh and they've had a bunch on, offense especially
on the offensive. Front you, know is there another level
that he believes his offense can still.

Speaker 7 (58:37):
Reach, WELL i think THERE'S i think we're playing, well
and BUT i do think because it is of where
we are in the, season we can play better, well
recognize that the other teams have a chance to get.
Better and we understand as much as anybody can ris.

Speaker 3 (59:00):
Our injury because we dealt with it this.

Speaker 7 (59:02):
WEEKEND i think that absent really the injuries going against you.
MORE i really think the sound logic is that we're
going to get. Better and, YES i think we can
get better at quarterback.

Speaker 3 (59:18):
Because we can get better at the supporting. Cast.

Speaker 7 (59:21):
Rounding we can, sure as you hear the term complimentary,
football we can be better and stronger over them the
defensive side of the. Ball so if we can have
and not get out of this thing, early which is
what the game was about the other, day if we
can continue to stack them up and have a, win

(59:43):
then by the time we get to the, end we
could be a much better team than when we. Started
that's the ideal recipe for going into the.

Speaker 2 (59:51):
Playoffs so The cowboys will play The Carolina. Panthers as
we mentioned In charlotte This.

Speaker 1 (59:56):
Sunday The panthers have The cowboy cast Off Rico, dawdle
who's been really.

Speaker 2 (01:00:02):
Good he had a big touchdown run last.

Speaker 1 (01:00:03):
Week Jerry jones has asked to reflect on that in
the off season decision to go a different.

Speaker 3 (01:00:08):
Direction, well it shouldn't be negative About. RICO i don't.

Speaker 7 (01:00:15):
Think that you didn't find anybody that didn't Think rico
is a top back in THE. Nfl And i've always
thought he really was a unique player's very explosive, player
VERY i used that word violent.

Speaker 3 (01:00:30):
Player and we got.

Speaker 7 (01:00:33):
Really good production out Of, rico more than he had
had because he had always battled injury and he's a good,
back make no mistake about, it and he got a
big offer to. Go we felt that the backs that
were potentially available to us at the time he signed With,

(01:00:55):
carolina we thought we had a chance to.

Speaker 3 (01:01:00):
At the, back and of.

Speaker 7 (01:01:01):
Course we did In. Williams but we thought we had
a chance to address that and we. Did AND i
don't wish him well out here Against, sunday BUT i
will tell you, THIS i wish him.

Speaker 3 (01:01:13):
Well he was always one of my favorite.

Speaker 1 (01:01:15):
Backs, Okay so there it is a update on the.
Baseball detroit has bounced back with two runs and still
batting in the bottom of the fifth. INNING a couple
of doubles have made the difference and The tigers have
pulled within a single run of The.

Speaker 2 (01:01:31):
Mariners and it's now three to.

Speaker 1 (01:01:32):
Two seattle's in the its bullpen, Now Gabe spire out,
there but The tigers are within a. Run, now it's
three to. Two is a bat in the bottom of the?
Fifth all, Right we'll be back to wrap up hour
number two of the. Program Here i'm thirteen under The.
Zone third and final hour here on a Yacht Rock
wednesday here on Sports RADIO am thirteen under The Zone Craig,

(01:01:55):
way joined by.

Speaker 2 (01:01:57):
The Producer Ja. Kerman glad to have you with us as.

Speaker 1 (01:01:59):
Well plenty of baseball we've been talking about this afternoon
and the big comeback by The yankees last night and
all that other kind of.

Speaker 2 (01:02:09):
Stuff but there's some other things. Today listen.

Speaker 1 (01:02:14):
THERE i, KNOW i know there are some hockey fans
here in the.

Speaker 2 (01:02:22):
AREA i know That Texas stars. FANS i know that as.

Speaker 1 (01:02:26):
Well and THERE'S nhl fans and probably no bigger fan
of The National Hockey league than the producer of this.
Program after, all not only did he grow up in The,
WASHINGTON dc area rooting for The Washington capitals and getting
to celebrate at long last To Stanley cup for, them
what was that twenty nineteen when they wanted twenty? Eighteen

(01:02:47):
eighteen nineteen was The nationals winning The World?

Speaker 2 (01:02:52):
Series?

Speaker 1 (01:02:52):
Eighteen was The capitals winning The Stanley. Cup but you're
also so what bit of a an authority on THE
nhl and it's so all? Right a couple of games
last Night opening? Night did you did you partake of
any of?

Speaker 5 (01:03:08):
THAT i saw a little bit of the Look New
York rangers under head Coach Mike sullivan facing his former,
team The Pittsburgh, penguins and it wasn't so much of
a of a new look.

Speaker 2 (01:03:19):
Just yet For New.

Speaker 5 (01:03:20):
York they were shut out three to nothing by A
penguins team that is not projected to be all that
special this. Season so kind of a ominous start for
The sullivan era among The. Rangers but we've seen plenty
of teams climb out of slow starts in The National
Hockey league. BEFORE i thought The avalanche looked good and
they went over The. KINGS i saw highlights of that.

Speaker 2 (01:03:41):
Blitz.

Speaker 5 (01:03:41):
Yeah, well, NO i didn't stay up for it, lot,
okay but you, KNOW i try and keep up with
what's going.

Speaker 2 (01:03:45):
On i'm excited to have hockey. Back, yeah, okay all.

Speaker 1 (01:03:48):
Right you didn't mention the back to back Defending Stanley
cup Champion Florida.

Speaker 5 (01:03:52):
Panthers, well we've heard enough about. Them, no it's it's.
Look they came out obviously mixed it up or in
that game while we were recording the show, yesterday and
you know no team has repeated since the early.

Speaker 2 (01:04:07):
Eighties by the, way did we record the show, Yesterday,
no as we were.

Speaker 1 (01:04:10):
Online, yeah you, said when we recorded the show, YESTERDAY
i was, like, What, No, no, okay we did the show.

Speaker 2 (01:04:16):
Live, anyway you were breaking, News, craig you get left.

Speaker 1 (01:04:18):
OUT i started, saying this is SOMETHING i just now finding,
Out so, yeah you. Know so, Anyway, yeah it's gonna
be tough for, them, Though.

Speaker 5 (01:04:29):
Craig The panthers are going to be Without Alexander barkov
for a lot of the, season And Ka chuck is getting.

Speaker 2 (01:04:35):
Surgery he's going to be out till close To.

Speaker 5 (01:04:37):
December he might even, Decide, Hey i'm gonna kind of
shut it down and just ramp up for The, olympics,
right which will happen in the middle of the season this.
Year TEAM usa could certainly benefit from. That so The,
panthers every win they can get early in the season
is going to be. Important get some hay in the,
bar and they've got to beat teams like The, blackhawks
BECAUSE i don't know necessarily who's going to challenge them

(01:04:59):
in The atlantic just yet Besides Tampa. Bay but it
might be a little bit tougher for them given how
banged up they. Are they didn't really get it going
till late last.

Speaker 2 (01:05:07):
Year, yeah that's, true they.

Speaker 1 (01:05:09):
Didn't they didn't exactly look incredibly impressive in the win last,
night but they. Won and that's kind of how they
do a lot of what they do The. Panthers they
find a way to get through it and win and move. Forward,
OKAY i just wanted, to you, know put that out,
there because of course we're we've been giving away tickets

(01:05:32):
to The Texas stars opening, weekend and we'll give away
a couple more before this hour is done For saturday nights,
games so we'll do that coming.

Speaker 2 (01:05:41):
Up, now let me jump to THE. Nfl.

Speaker 1 (01:05:44):
Yesterday we only mentioned it in passing because we had
a pretty busy, day but The Cleveland browns Traded Joe
flacco to The Cincinnati bengals. Yesterday and you, tell, okay
what does that, Mean, well it Means Dylan, GABRIEL i,
guess is the star for. Now Schadur sanders is the.
Backup he moves into the backup. Thing that's The cleveland

(01:06:04):
side of. It The cincinnati side of it is The
bengals are trying to turn their season, around and of
course you know they've they've struggled at quarterback With Jake
browning since losing you, Know Joe burrow for the. Season
so The bengals have lost all three of browning starts

(01:06:26):
or two and. Three he's thrown eight interceptions since taking
over For.

Speaker 2 (01:06:29):
Burrow so The.

Speaker 1 (01:06:30):
Bengals not only traded for forty year Old Joe, flacco
they're going to start him This Saturday sunday against The.

Speaker 2 (01:06:38):
Packers so that's that's.

Speaker 1 (01:06:40):
It they Acquired flacco and a sixth round pick from
The browns. Yesterday next year's to have twenty twenty six
in exchange for a twenty twenty six fifth round.

Speaker 2 (01:06:52):
Pick that's ALL i had to give.

Speaker 1 (01:06:54):
Up give up a fifth, rounder get a sixth rounder,
back and you Get. Flacco pretty good deal for The.
BENGALS i, think you, KNOW i don't know how much
Football flacco has got left in, him but you know
THAT'S i think that's a low risk deal probably on both.

Speaker 2 (01:07:07):
Hands, yeah it.

Speaker 5 (01:07:08):
Must have learned the playbook pretty quick if he's already
getting the starting, job and it must mean that he's
already better Than browning in.

Speaker 1 (01:07:15):
Practice, YEAH i think that's probably the. Case so, anyway
that was one of the headline THINGS i wanted to get,
to and then the other deal was his story that
came out. Today David purdham OF espn wrote, it but
it's been on several different sites that THE Ncaa division

(01:07:35):
One Administrative committee today adopted a proposal to allow student
athletes and athletic department staff to bet on pro.

Speaker 2 (01:07:47):
Sports of Cour chris will N, lovely.

Speaker 1 (01:07:53):
It's of, course that's a shift in that long held
policy that had become difficult to enforce with the spread
legal sports betting in The United.

Speaker 2 (01:08:02):
States, Now divisions.

Speaker 1 (01:08:04):
Two and three are expected to consider the proposal at
their respective meetings at the end Of, october according to THE,
ncaa and if it's approved by the lower, divisions the
rule would go into effect On november. One athletes and athletic,
staff of, course have been prohibited from betting on any
sport pro or college that was sponsored by THE. Ncaa

(01:08:26):
betting on college sports will remain off, limits which to
me begs the, question wouldn't it be a little more
difficult to enforce that prohibition if you're allowing legalized betting
on pro?

Speaker 2 (01:08:44):
SPORTS i, mean that's just my knee youerk reaction on.

Speaker 5 (01:08:49):
It it just feels like they're flying so close to the.
Sun it's almost like a, coverer you know, What, yeah
you Know it's almost like the negative press about these
betting scandals is so bad, that, oh if we just you,
know make some of these, allowed then maybe it'll be
less of a. Story when in, fact what you're doing

(01:09:11):
is you might just be encouraging more athletes to get
themselves into.

Speaker 2 (01:09:16):
Trouble, well don't want them involved at. All.

Speaker 1 (01:09:18):
Yeah THE, ncaa of, course has faced an increased number
of alleged betting and betting violations by student athletes in recent.

Speaker 2 (01:09:25):
Years we know about.

Speaker 1 (01:09:26):
That In, september they announced that A Freshner state men's
basketball player manipulated his own performance for gambling purposes and
conspired to other players in a prop betting.

Speaker 5 (01:09:37):
Scheme so, easy get rid of these prop, Bets, yeah
get rid of.

Speaker 2 (01:09:41):
Them and the.

Speaker 1 (01:09:42):
Investigation THE ncaa is investigating thirteen additional student athletes from
six schools regarding potential gambling violations dealing with integrity. Issues
So John, duncan The vice president Of enforcement for THE
ncaa said here what's his. Quote the enforcement staff continues
to investigate and resolve cases involving sports betting quickly but.

(01:10:04):
Thoroughly enforcement staff are investigating a significant number of cases
that are specifically relevant to the NCAA's mission of fair,
competition and our focus will remain on those cases and
those behaviors that impact the integrity of college sports most.
Directly in other, WORDS i guess what they're saying is
maybe if we just tell, them go over there and

(01:10:26):
bet on THE, nfl that's, Okay go bet on.

Speaker 2 (01:10:28):
THE, nba that's all.

Speaker 1 (01:10:29):
Right just don't bet on your own, division don't, vet
don't bet on college. Sports give us time to clean
up the issues we've got here with, Teams, uh setting
up prop bets and betting on college. Games, GO i
get busy yourself with THE. Nfl if you're that much
in the sports wagering.

Speaker 5 (01:10:48):
Anything to help themselves over helping the, Athletes, yeah, exactly
so uh and help their.

Speaker 2 (01:10:55):
Partners.

Speaker 1 (01:10:55):
Yeah so, anyway THAT'S i thought that was a pretty bizarre.

Speaker 2 (01:11:01):
Announcement to come down the, Day but, AGAIN.

Speaker 1 (01:11:06):
I guess that's a situation where they, Figure, uh you,
know there's a lot of people feel if you legalize
marijuana across the entire, nation not just in What colorado And,
OREGON i guess a couple of.

Speaker 2 (01:11:17):
Places, yeah way more than, that, Now, Illinois, yeah that's.

Speaker 1 (01:11:21):
Right if you Do. Maryland, yeah if you do, that
then then then maybe it'll you, know curb some of
the issues or. Something who, knows but maybe that's what
they're thinking about with this betting.

Speaker 2 (01:11:34):
THING i had to check my.

Speaker 5 (01:11:35):
Watch are we sure that this didn't come out on
A friday at five pm.

Speaker 2 (01:11:39):
A little media? DUMP i don't think. So it actually
came out this.

Speaker 1 (01:11:44):
Morning so maybe they're just you, know trying to be
upfront about it and make sure that they handle their
business on. That so, anyway there's that's something THAT i
thought was very very interesting as. Well by the, way
that that trade THAT i mentioned Of Joe flacco going
To cincinnati From, CLEVELAND i, said you know what that

(01:12:07):
means probably is That Dylan gabriel stays in his number
one And Shoudoor sanders number.

Speaker 2 (01:12:12):
Two The brown, said not. Necessarily not.

Speaker 1 (01:12:15):
Necessarily remember they've Got Bailey zappy on the practice.

Speaker 5 (01:12:20):
Squad they got somebody else, Too, yeah so don't forget
About DeShawn.

Speaker 1 (01:12:24):
Yeah, yeah so but he's, OUT i, mean you, know
in terms of just for. Now, stefanski by the, Way Kevin,
stefanski the head, coach would not say if the team
would Sign zappi to the active roster ahead Of sunday's,
game so that one of the backups could serve as
the inactive emergency. Quarterback he did confirm That gabriel has

(01:12:47):
taking the reps with the starting, offense and when he
was asked If Shouodoor sanders And Bailey zappy would split
time on first team, reps he, said need to work
through it all. Again really like the guy we, Have
we've just got to work through all of.

Speaker 5 (01:13:02):
It SO i was Rina yahoo story this morning about
how some people believe The browns are really using this
season to see If gabriel is their.

Speaker 1 (01:13:11):
Guy they really Like. Gabriel, yeah, Yeah and of course
you Mentioned Sean. Watson he's still on the pup list
recovering from The achilles, injury And stefanski did not provide
an update On watson if he would return to practice,
soon but he did say he's doing an excellent job
with his, Rehab so there you.

Speaker 2 (01:13:31):
Go he's doing an excellent job making.

Speaker 1 (01:13:33):
Money, yeah, yeah, yeah he's getting a lot of guaranteed
cash as a result of. That, okay, anyway that's that's
where we are right. Now coming, up we're gonna hear
From longhorn's head Coach Steve. Sarkaisian this is another one

Moulton they're FROM wzzn because he IS omni. President he's
AT sec media. Days he's always got a question or
two or a question where a follow up for every
SINGLE sec coach that it doesn't. Matter doesn't matter if

(01:17:53):
you're Talking South carolina Or, TEXAS a AND, m if
you're Talking texas Or kentucky Or oklahoma And florida.

Speaker 5 (01:18:00):
Matter he's got questions for all of. Them, yeah and
today was it was you, know it was like he was.
Listening and then at the end of the line he
jumped in and, Said, Hey i'm going to follow up
on that thing you said.

Speaker 1 (01:18:10):
Earlier, yeah, yeah, yeah there's some of that and and
and people hear me make this comment, before AND i
kind of chuckle about, it but it is. TRUE I
i first started hearing this from my boss WHEN i
was In, Dallas Brad, sham the voice of The. Cowboys
when you would have people say in a media, availability,
COACH i got a two part question for. You and

(01:18:31):
then they would, ask, like say something about the running
game and then about the defensive. Backs and As brad
used to, say that's not a two part. Question that's two.
Questions if you, say, hey a question about the running,
game you, know what do you think you need to
get going to do? It and and and the second
part does your use of your term rollo decks with

(01:18:54):
running backs eight in that something that that's a two.

Speaker 2 (01:18:56):
Parter that's a two part.

Speaker 1 (01:18:58):
Question but if you're talking about the running game and
then the secondary and that's not a two part, question
that's two separate.

Speaker 2 (01:19:02):
Questions so, anyway there's there's some of. That but, yeah Hey,
craig how long have you loved Yacht? Rock part? Two
what's your game This? Friday? Yeah, yeah, right. Exactly there's
two separate questions there on.

Speaker 1 (01:19:14):
That, so, uh there's there's there's different media who will do,
that who will ask. That but in addition to, that
there's there's some media who asked just the regular question
or two and then and then wait for the coaches.
Response so let's let's hear some of. This this is
from THE sec teleconference, today starting off with us our opening.

Speaker 2 (01:19:39):
Statements first, Words.

Speaker 9 (01:19:40):
Yeah obviously exciting week of any, season in particularly this.
ONE i think the one hundred and twenty first meeting Between
texas AND ou and The Red river, rivalry uh In
dallas at The State fair at The Cotton. Bowl in my,
opinion it's it's the it's the premiere, game the best
game in all of college football year and in year.

Speaker 10 (01:19:59):
Out we're obviously fortunate and humbled to be part of.

Speaker 3 (01:20:02):
It.

Speaker 10 (01:20:02):
Uh, oh he's got a great.

Speaker 9 (01:20:03):
Team it's a heck of a challenge and looking forward
to to an awesome opportunity to go play in that.

Speaker 1 (01:20:10):
Game, okay remember that he said he thought in his
opinion that it was the best rivalry in college.

Speaker 2 (01:20:15):
Football is you write that? Down it's because it's going
to come back first of.

Speaker 1 (01:20:18):
All quiz here was something that was off the. Grid
somebody asked About Jon.

Speaker 9 (01:20:24):
Robinson, WELL i Think jon is a complete, player not
not just running, back but a complete football, player but
in particular at the running back.

Speaker 10 (01:20:34):
Position you, know he's.

Speaker 9 (01:20:36):
Got the, size he has the, speed he has the
feel and the.

Speaker 10 (01:20:40):
Vision but he has the one cut.

Speaker 9 (01:20:43):
Ability he can make full speed cuts and get to
top end.

Speaker 2 (01:20:47):
Speed.

Speaker 9 (01:20:48):
Uh he's got a very high FOOTBALL. Iq he's got
elite hands out of the. Backfield. Uh and so when
you put all that together and the guy that's the consummate,
teammate you, KNOW i used to say all the time About,
jon he's a better human being than he is a football.
Player and he's a fantastic football. Player but the person
that he, is the teammate that he, is the attention to,

(01:21:10):
detail the intent in which he, practices the leading by
example are all things THAT i think translate really well
to THE, nfl AND i think the complete player that
he IS i think translates to THE.

Speaker 1 (01:21:23):
Nfl, yeah the question was about why did he what
stands out to him About bijon and why the transition
has worked so well in THE, nfl and he just
outlined all of. That bijean was with us last week
On Longhorn weekly and it was a lot of fun
visiting with. Him by the, Way Kwandre diggs will be

(01:21:43):
our guest this. Week we record the program this evening
over on campus and then it'll layer at seven o'clock
tomorrow night on thirteen under The, zone and again it'll
re air On friday evening at seven O'clock Longhorn weekly
with Coach sarket, ALSO i.

Speaker 2 (01:21:58):
Think are the.

Speaker 1 (01:22:01):
Our guest from the staff will be the strength Coach Tory,
beckton and we'll talk about what he puts the players
through in terms of their physical work and preparation each
week and in the off season and all those kinds of.

Speaker 2 (01:22:15):
Things, okay back to THE sec.

Speaker 1 (01:22:18):
Teleconference this is something came up On monday about the
fact that The logorn's leading, rusher their leading ground gainer
Is Arch, manning and that's something that a coach really
doesn't want to. Have you want to have a quarterback
who is. Mobile what's that that? Term our old Friend

(01:22:39):
Rod bavers likes to use functional mobility to be able
to run the ball. Well but you don't want him
necessarily to be your leading. Groundgainer you want running backs to.
Emerge So sark was, asked With arch being the leading,
rusher does he use that to challenge his other backs
and the offensive line with respect to the running.

Speaker 9 (01:23:00):
Game there's a lot of people and things that have
been challenged this, week including, myself and so you, know
to point out one thing or, another it probably wouldn't
be fair to all the facets of you, know trying
to push the right buttons to make sure that we
put our best foot, forward so you, know, naturally you,
KNOW i think the injury bug has kind of hindered
that some, obviously with With trey AND c four being

(01:23:23):
injured and trying to find our way with some of
the younger, players And arches obviously utilize his legs very.
Well so the, ideally you, know one or two of
these guys can find their rhythm and find their roof
here as we as we move in towards the second
half of the.

Speaker 1 (01:23:37):
Season, yeah because it's going to be important to gets
That oklahoma defense to be able to have a ground.

Speaker 2 (01:23:41):
GAME i think everybody's in agreement on. That.

Speaker 1 (01:23:44):
Okay with regard to the offense in the passing, game
all the pressures That sark Was i'm not talking about
the emotional pressures and the outside, pressure not talking about
the article in The New York times today that said
is he a?

Speaker 2 (01:23:57):
Bust is he a? Failure same thing on the athletic not.

Speaker 5 (01:24:00):
Just that is he college football's First. Yep, yeah that's
the craziest part about.

Speaker 1 (01:24:05):
It, yeah there's been Mini, yeah let alone you know
the fact that we're declaring this after seven.

Speaker 2 (01:24:13):
Games, yeah, Right, So, no WHAT i was referring to.

Speaker 1 (01:24:19):
In leading to these comments is about the pressures that
he's been under from opposing. Defenses he was sacked six,
times he was, PRESSURED i think they said on thirty
five or forty two snaps in one way or.

Speaker 2 (01:24:32):
Another, yeah Last, saturday.

Speaker 5 (01:24:34):
And when he was asking this question that you're about to,
Hear Chip brown from Inside texas said three point two,
seconds That's arch's.

Speaker 2 (01:24:41):
Time to. Throw he kind of used that to frame the.

Speaker 1 (01:24:43):
Question, Right so with the time to, throw is that
Where sark wants it to?

Speaker 2 (01:24:49):
Be For arch and the, offense.

Speaker 9 (01:24:51):
WELL i think it all depends, on you, know what
you're trying to do, offensively, Right and you, know Obviously
arch is a is a guy who can put the ball.

Speaker 10 (01:25:00):
Down the, field and and you know we're.

Speaker 9 (01:25:02):
Trying, to especially early on in the, season we're trying
to play to his strengths and try to do some
things that he does. Well you, know with that requires
holding the ball for half a second or so. Longer you,
know so when when when you do, that you know
that stresses the protection some and so you know at
times when you know With, Quinn quinn was an elite

(01:25:23):
R po, guy and everyone used to Criticize quinn because
he threw so many balls at or behind a lot of.
Scrimmage and so what you try to find and what
you try to do is find balance and all those
things to where you can throw the deep, ball throw
the intermediate, ball and throw the short. Ball in certain,
games certain, times certain parts of the, season you, know
you lean into one aspect more than the. Other and

(01:25:46):
if you're throwing a lot of quick game and r
pos and, screens that number is going to be really.
Low it might be below. Too but if you're holding
the ball and trying to push it down the, field
or you're behind in games and you scrambling around a
little bit and you're you're you're taking shots down the,
field that number might be.

Speaker 10 (01:26:04):
Higher so you, know ideally you're probably in the mid.

Speaker 9 (01:26:06):
Twoes that's usually the, average but at all when it's
all said and, Done but you, KNOW i, WAS i
was definitely obviously.

Speaker 10 (01:26:13):
Aware of that.

Speaker 3 (01:26:14):
NUMBER.

Speaker 1 (01:26:15):
Uh as a follow up to, that the environment That
texas was playing in the SWAMP. Uh you, know we
all have have heard about how prolific a home field
the environment it can, be and it was last Last,
saturday and then of Course florida's defense played very very.
Well So sark was asked about the role that the

(01:26:36):
swamp played in terms of the environment and The florida,
defense in terms of having its effect on The TEXAS
uh offense and overall against The.

Speaker 10 (01:26:46):
Longhorns, WELL i thought it was a great.

Speaker 9 (01:26:48):
Environment you, know going into the, game we knew that
the swamp would be a difficult place to play and
and it.

Speaker 3 (01:26:54):
Was it.

Speaker 9 (01:26:55):
Didn't it didn't disappoint you, KNOW i thought they played
a good football. Game we knew going into the game
that they're a very good defensive football. TEAM i thought
we took our shots when we had opportunities to do.
Them you, know we hit a, couple we didn't hit
some that we would love to have.

Speaker 2 (01:27:09):
Back you.

Speaker 9 (01:27:10):
Know, obviously they did a great job at the line of.
Scrimmage AND i thought would also played a part into
the game was that that was probably their best game
offensively that they had. Played and and it's you the
defense kind of got ramped up when you, know they
got the lead and and and scored a few. Points
and that was a different position than they had been
in earlier in the. Season they've been kind of been

(01:27:31):
behind in some other games and been close, games been was,
close you, know one score game Against miami with about
four or five minutes to, go one score game AGAINST,
Lsu and so you, know the fact that they had the,
LEAD i thought gave their defense some energy as. Well
so they're very good team and they're a good, defense
but BUT i think what helped them was offensively and

(01:27:52):
then then been able to run it and then you,
know you, Know lagway getting hot and having those young
receivers make some plays for, them.

Speaker 1 (01:27:57):
All, right and going back To archie having to deal
with That florida. Defense sark was asked about his accuracy
once he's flushed from the pocket or even on design
place when he's rolling out RPOs and when he's rolling
out of the.

Speaker 10 (01:28:11):
Pocket, WELL i, think to, me that was that's kind
of what we're used.

Speaker 9 (01:28:16):
To AND i think that WAS i think the frustrating
part for him and ourselves early in the season when
he wasn't quite as. Accurate BUT i think he's starting
to come into his own now and he's starting to
grow and improve and playing more true to, himself which
is a great sign for.

Speaker 1 (01:28:32):
Us All, right there's one more piece of SOUND i
want you to hear From, sark but we're going to
do that coming. Up we need a. Break when we come,
Back i'll let you hear about. This and so it's
all about obviously everything that goes Into TEXAS ou that's
next when we continue On Sports RADIO am thirteen under
The zone in The iHeartRadio. App this particular tune is

(01:28:53):
an example nice of a song whose time when it
was recorded predated not only the advent of yacht, rock
but even the terminology of what yacht rock was magnet,
steel Like Walter egan in the early. Seventies There by the,
way backing vocals on this was a young unknown lady

(01:29:18):
Named Stevie.

Speaker 5 (01:29:18):
Nicks, OH i thought you're gonna, Say michael, McDonald that guy's.

Speaker 2 (01:29:21):
Everywhere, No, no you wasn't on this.

Speaker 1 (01:29:23):
One Stevie nicks, was, however on This magnet And steel There.
OKAY i mentioned That Long worn's head Coach Steve sarkisian
in THAT sec, teleconference was addressing all kinds of different.
Questions he talked, about you, know somebody asked him About
Jehn robinson and why his game is translated so well

(01:29:45):
to THE.

Speaker 2 (01:29:45):
Nfl they talked about the ground game and.

Speaker 1 (01:29:50):
Arch banding being the leading rusher and how they're trying
to get the other pieces of their ground game. Together
by the, way On, MONDAY i thought sark probably put
it best when he, said we've, done we've been roll
of dexing running. Backs now that's an old school. TERM
a lot of people might not know what a rolodex.
S you know what a rolodex, is don't.

Speaker 5 (01:30:11):
You that's, RIGHT i know what it, is AND i
even used it to describe one of my favorite play
by play.

Speaker 2 (01:30:16):
Broadcasters that's not, You Iron.

Speaker 5 (01:30:18):
EAGLE i feel like he has a rolodex of phrases
that he throws in when he's calling a basketball or a.

Speaker 2 (01:30:22):
Football, game and so do. You of, course he's he's.
Outstanding in, Fact i've voted for.

Speaker 1 (01:30:27):
Him and was glad that he Won National sportscast for
The year in The National Sports Media association this past.

Speaker 2 (01:30:33):
Year he's that.

Speaker 1 (01:30:34):
Good but for those of you who don't know what
a rolodex, is it was really really popular, seventies, eighties even.
Nineties it's basically an address, book but it's done on
little cards in a spool that turns so it rolls
for that's a roll of, dex like a rolling index of.

(01:30:57):
Numbers so that's what a rolodex, is and you would
roll through that and then find what you were looking.

Speaker 2 (01:31:02):
For and that's that's what he.

Speaker 1 (01:31:05):
Said we've been rolodexing our running, backs And i'm sure
there were probably some people like doing what you, know
didn't know exactly what rolodex.

Speaker 2 (01:31:14):
WAS i got a.

Speaker 5 (01:31:14):
Theory the word is so fun to say that that's
why it's outliving the actual rolodex by.

Speaker 2 (01:31:19):
Sing, okay all, right that makes, sense you.

Speaker 1 (01:31:21):
KNOW i mean rolodexes may be in the same category
as payphones by now phone, books, yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:31:28):
Telephone, books all of that kind of.

Speaker 1 (01:31:30):
Stuff BUT i thought he put it best in terms
of the challenge and, yes difficulty of getting, enough.

Speaker 2 (01:31:41):
As he, said enough of a rhythm for his running.

Speaker 1 (01:31:44):
Backs, now a big part of that is having your
two leading guys out, injured not Having Quinn Trevian, weisner
not having as he called him on the, CALL c
four THAT'S. Cj, baxter who wears number four and is, explosive,
yes and not having those. Guys and so in the
search for an explosive running, game we got to see

(01:32:07):
quite a bit of.

Speaker 2 (01:32:12):
That the rest At Christian.

Speaker 1 (01:32:13):
Clark we got a chance to See Jared, gibson we
got a chance to See James, Simon but there was
no one guy who just really took, it took leadership
and ownership of that running game. Thing now That Trey
weisner is, BACK i think that might help and have
something to do with, it but you know who knows for.

(01:32:34):
Sure so he was asked about, That he was asked
About Arch manning's time to throw and is it? Enough
and he was asked about the environment in the swamp
In florida and the play of The gator defense And
arch's accuracy outside the.

Speaker 2 (01:32:49):
Pocket he's asked about all those. Things he was asked
about one other.

Speaker 1 (01:32:51):
Thing, now remember last segment at the, start when we
were talking about what's our guy's name Against Steve?

Speaker 2 (01:32:56):
Moulton is It bolton molten like multi? Lava?

Speaker 1 (01:33:02):
Okay all, Right So Steve moulton from W zzn In, Huntsville,
alabama had he'd asked the, question but he Heard archi's,
STATEMENT i mean sark statement in the opening statement about
how he thinks The TEXAS ou game is the best

(01:33:24):
rivalry in college. Football SO i wouldn't say that his
question was born out of a comment of. Indignation it
was more. Curiosity but he did point out in the
question that you know here In, alabama any think the
iron balls pretty fast To, Auburn. Ala why do you
think you? Know he wanted to pin Sark down's to

(01:33:45):
why he Thought TEXAS ou was the best in all
of college, football given the fact sark, had of course
coached in The Alabama auburn game and he in The
iron And bowl in The Iron, bowl And sark had
his answer.

Speaker 9 (01:33:58):
Ready, YEAH i, mean and don't get me, wrong The
Iron bowl is a tremendous game to be part, of
AND i was fortunate to be to be part of
three of those in you, know that just an awesome game.
ITSELF i, think what what what makes this game and
what separates this game and makes it so?

Speaker 10 (01:34:14):
Unique uh is the game being held annually In.

Speaker 9 (01:34:17):
Dallas at the at The Cotton bowl in the middle
of The State, fair with the fans being split fifty
to fifty down the. Middle it just creates such an,
environment you, know both schools being just about three hours
from from the, stadium give or. Take and it's just
the most unique setting in college football and and one

(01:34:40):
that that you you, KNOW i cherish every opportunity THAT i.
Get i'm getting goosebumps thinking about it right, now because
it is not it's not that home and home where
you go in one stadium then the.

Speaker 10 (01:34:50):
Other the fact that it's there every.

Speaker 9 (01:34:52):
Year both fan bases do a great job of showing
up and supporting their. Teams the smell of the corn
dogs and the turkey legs in the, AIR i mean
it's just it's a different it's a different, environment but
it's a very special.

Speaker 2 (01:35:06):
One maybe hungry just hearing. That the corn dogs and
the turkey.

Speaker 1 (01:35:10):
Legs OH i WISH i was. Going it's it's always
