Once again, that's the mediacaptain.com Twitter account at the MediaCaptain. So, buddy, first off, how was Thanksgiving? Very good. How about you? It was nice. I got to say, watching Dallas lose was a little different this year. I really didn't care at all. I barely even watched the game. I mean, I watched enough of it, but I was kind of in and out watching the game, whereas before, you know, you're kind of bringing your plate in front of the TV set and making sure they lose lose or at least have a miserable day but I don't know man it was weird this year I just I it goes back to what you said a couple podcasts to go like I just want to win I'm tired of rooting for against other teams that's that's where I am as much as I hate Dallas and the Eagles it's like I know that only one I know that only one will make it. And at this point, I don't even care who makes it.

I don't care.

I'll tell you what, Joe, you put a good tweet on, excuse me, put, oh, God, let me start that over again.

You put a good tweet on Twitter when you said the NFLC East is so mediocre. What a shame that the Giants are out of it, right? It really is a shame, isn't it? Because if the Giants were four and seven right now, Jerry, you would be saying, well, guess what? December's going to be interesting because we're a game out, and who knows what could happen. We've got to play the Eagles twice, right? Yeah, I mean, we would have meaningful games now and we don't.

I mean, I don't think anybody sort of would come over. The Cowboys would be so mediocre.

The Eagles are five and six, you know, a six-loss team is in first place after 11 games, 12 games for Dallas.

And if the Giants were, you know, five and 6 or 4 and 7, the interest in this team would be...

You said it, 4 and 7 even.

Yeah.

The interest in this team would be off the chart just to see what would happen the last five games of December.

And here it is.

It's a total or complete joke, you know, not even an interest for anybody.

You know, they could have beat Dallas. They could have beat Detroit or Arizona or Chicago. Like two more wins, the Jets. Two more wins. That's it. Four and seven. But one of those wins would have had to be Dallas to make it really interesting. But man, now it's, you know, on to next year. And you're just watching the leaders of the NFCs bumble every week. And I think it's going to end up being the Eagles because how easy their schedule is, unless Dallas can beat them in week 16 and still be, you know, at least tied with them. But Dallas has some tough ones coming up and the Eagles have a cakewalk. They get us twice. They get Miami, Washington. And, you know, it's just a sad state of affairs, man.

You're watching football yesterday, and I'm just like, wow. I mean, and my other tweet that I put out during the game was, Giants, I hope you watch, guys, you should want no part of Jason Garrett at all. None. I don't know where that's coming from. I hope it's not us, buddy. It's scary because Rappaport puts out there not only from Garrett's side he's coming from the giant side to somebody so somebody is saying something in the Giants building about Jason Garrett that's why Rappaport's getting that from you know yeah he doesn't you know he and Rappaport was not making this stuff up no he's not he doesn't do that you know he does that maybe he's not dead on all the time, but he's not going to, he's not a quick-bait guy. He's not going to put anything out there just for the sake of putting something out there. So he got this from somewhere, you know? Yeah. And to even, I don't know where he got it from, but if that's even a consideration, I'm telling you right now, Jerry, first of all, Sherman's got to get fired.

I don't know what they're going to do with Sherman, but if that ever played out and Garrett was the man, you will see a half-empty stadium opening day next year.

I agree.

There will be airplanes with all season tickets will not be renewed.

Nobody wants to red-headed clap. I don't know where the hell that rumor's coming from, but it's obviously out there. Okay? Yeah. Because not just rap report. A couple of people have reported it. I'm thinking it's because it's 2020 next year. It'll be drones. You just see a ton of drones. No, I know.

I know.

I'm just thinking like,

you'll just see a million drones. Yeah, yeah. So, I mean, listen, that's way down the road. That's really kind of pointless to get into now, but it is out there. No, I mean, it's not pointless if it's out there, right? It is out there, you know.

So, you know, I feel about Jason Garrett.
