00:00Coming into the show today, I thought, okay, it's a Friday.

00:18We'll talk playoff football.

00:19We'll talk a little bit of Mavs and stars and Rangers, and we're going to do that.

00:23But all of a sudden, you know, we get to start the show off because Jerry did it.

00:28Jerry did exactly what I thought he would do on a Friday.

00:31No, he didn't.

00:32And you read the words on it.

00:34They're still open to negotiations.

00:36Of course, that's what they were before.

00:38This isn't this isn't news, actually.

00:40Honestly, it's just continued information that we already had that they decided to release

00:45on a Friday because, hey, let's throw it out on a Friday so we can capture headlines after

00:49Notre Dame does something special last night.

00:51Oh, and he'll be at the game tonight.

00:54The Cardinals.

00:55Good point.

00:56So some media can go to Jerry and ask follow up questions.

01:01And Mike is going to be there.

01:03Mike is going to be there, too.

01:04So, hey, do they go find Micah because he's in the suite with Jerry and ask him a couple

01:07questions.

01:08It looks like you guys are bringing back Mike McCarthy and, you know, so now all of us to

01:12you.

01:13I didn't even think of that.

01:14We completely ignore the cotton ball.

01:15Yeah, we were 15 minutes ago.

01:18Sean Sharif brought us kind of the headline.

01:20And now I'm we're all in our head starting to put it together.

01:23How Jerry makes this weekend about the Cowboys instead of about the playoffs probably sound

01:30I probably sound very frustrated by it today because, Kevin, I put up with a whole year

01:36last year off season of like, what are we going to do storylines?

01:41And as I told you many times, I had no answer to Mike Bassett.

01:44I'm just going to say Mike, because that's the way it's supposed to be.

01:47I had no answer to Mike whenever he was upset about something.

01:49He was like, well, how are they going to do this?

01:51I was like, crap, I don't know.

01:52I think it feels like this is just going to be another off season of that.

01:55I think that's what Sean was kind of speaking to just a minute ago is that feeling of just

01:59good.

02:00Gosh, it was already rough enough last year, and you're going to put us through this again

02:03this year.

02:04They got to find something that's going to give me real energy about this about this

02:08franchise again.
