[speaker001:] okay
[speaker002:] so I guess you're a Cowboy fan
[speaker001:] oh yeah I guess we're sort of we're stuck with that down here Brad we have to be but uh been it's been difficult suffering with them through the past few years but it looks like they could be
[speaker002:] that's true
[speaker001:] you know on their way back a little bit
[speaker002:] yeah what's what's the story with uh your quarterback though
[speaker001:] our quarterback's hurt right now he's gonna be out for a couple more weeks at the very least and may miss the rest of the season course if they're lucky enough to make the play-offs he may be ready for then
[speaker002:] oh that's good
[speaker001:] we're we're fortunate to have a you know a a fairly good back up quarterback that's come in but I tell you what the people of Dallas uh they love their Cowboys I'm a I've been here since seventy four and uh they're quite easy to easily to get attached to and uh we've got our new coach now Jimmy Johnson which I we like we like what he's doing they've forgotten about Tom Landry he's a great coach in his day but they've forgotten about him
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] so who
[speaker002:] yeah isn't the Cowboys were the tradition you know
[speaker001:] oh yes who who's your favorite team
[speaker002:] uh well it's kind of weird for me I'll tell you why first of all I used to be a Jet fan when I grew up
[speaker001:] right
[speaker002:] I grew up on Long Island where the Jets play uh I mean they're in New York City but it's closer to Long Island
[speaker001:] sure
[speaker002:] uh then the Giants which were up in the Bronx uh but then around eighty five the Giants started playing really good defense and they started you know really not that I'm a fair weather fan but they really started looking good you know so now I root for both teams Jets and the Giants but I'm involved in this uh rotisserie league I don't know if you're familiar with those
[speaker001:] no
[speaker002:] well you draft players from different teams so it's kind of you get points based on how many how many touch downs and and and and stuff like that that players on all different teams uh make
[speaker001:] well I'll be darned
[speaker002:] so you get kind of caught up um and now I got like you know players players on on like Buffalo and and Washington and and I I happened to have uh your kicker
[speaker001:] why sure um-hum
[speaker002:] and uh Micheal Irvin who was a great he's a great wide receiver and uh
[speaker001:] right so how how's your team doing
[speaker002:] so my team's doing pretty good for for those guys I have I do have a couple of Giants um but they're not doing that much and uh I also have
[speaker001:] well good the Giants are having a sad year
[speaker002:] one Jet yeah they're not they're not looking too good um but you know it's always tough after you win a Super Bowl I guess and
[speaker001:] I know maybe we're maybe we're both teams of the future huh
[speaker002:] yeah and they they um they um I mean last year was just fantastic with the Giants winning the Super Bowl it was just
[speaker001:] oh we're well it was fantastic they had a hell of a season
[speaker002:] yeah and it was such a I don't know maybe because I'm a Giants fan but but uh it was such a unbelievable run you know all the games were like won by field goals and stuff like that so it was
[speaker001:] oh I know they had a great coach I think they're they're missing their coach but
[speaker002:] um
[speaker001:] most of all they're just they're in a rebuilding type of thing they've got they're quarterback's down too right now so
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] the big thing oops
[speaker002:] I'm here hello
[speaker001:] big big Phil's trying to come back hold just a second that's that's my other line
[speaker002:] okay
[speaker001:] sorry Brad okay
[speaker002:] that's all right
[speaker001:] so anyway Phil's trying to bring them back right now I guess
[speaker002:] yeah they got a big game this weekend I think if they win it they got a shot at getting into the play-offs but I don't think they're gonna win
[speaker001:] who they play this weekend
[speaker002:] they're playing the Eagles
[speaker001:] oh it's a big game yeah they play at up in Philadelphia
[speaker002:] uh no they play in New York
[speaker001:] play in New York well yeah good chance there hope so
[speaker002:] but I I don't know first of all they don't they haven't done too well against the Eagles lately
[speaker001:] I think we right and we just hope we just hope Dallas makes it and of course all that depends on what Philadelphia and New York does too so I don't know
[speaker002:] and  yeah I guess you got to pipe it off having the Giants uh win this weekend to knock out Philadelphia
[speaker001:] that's true because both our teams are like eight and five you guys are up what seven and six I guess
[speaker002:] you know um-hum but uh yeah I think I think I think Dallas will make it I think that I think they're they're uh they're doing pretty well and I think that like if the season ended now they'd be in the play-offs so you just have to like win two out of the next three or something
[speaker001:] yeah I hope so their first play-off games travel to Detroit I believe and that's that'll be a tough one on
[speaker002:] really oh you never know I mean what's to you know Detroit's only one game up maybe they'll oh well they lost to Detroit already though didn't they this year yes so they can
[speaker001:] right yeah it was there but they lost them playing there but uh still a tough game
[speaker002:] well maybe they'll get lucky and not have to go to Detroit because that's a tough place to play lately
[speaker001:] they but you got Emmett Smith versus Barry Sanders it ought to be a little exciting be a good game anyway
[speaker002:] yeah I guess their quarterback on uh Detroit was hurt too they're all getting knocked down so maybe they have a better shot against this new quarterback because they haven't Detroit hasn't played as well with this guy as with
[speaker001:] you bet
[speaker002:] um I don't know I think I think his name's Kramer
[speaker001:] yes
[speaker002:] and uh they used to have uh Rodney Pete who was doing really well for them and then he got hurt so
[speaker001:] yeah he was doing well and the kid from Houston they drafted from Houston uh they gave all that money to
[speaker002:] right yeah he's doing a lot
[speaker001:] they've got a lot of high dollar players I tell you
[speaker002:] yeah well uh
[speaker001:] what do you this is off the subject a little bit but what do you feel about the amount of money these guys that are are making and uh the amount of time
