| 0:07.0 | Cowboys countdown to kick off 9.30 gets underway. |
| 0:09.9 | Oh, I have to remember that. |
| 0:10.9 | Sunday morning, Donnie and I will have the post game for two hours after the game wraps up. |
| 0:17.3 | This is an interesting one because this will be our first look in person at the apple of our |
| 0:23.9 | eye now you recall donnie and i were up in green bay where the draft was this past april and man i |
| 0:30.4 | was beating the table i was beating the table for tetaroa mcmillan that's, when we were doing our draft preparation and our draft talks leading into it, I thought, man, if Ted McMillan is there, you have got to pull the trigger. He is the guy. I think Carolina surprised a lot of people by taking him at eight. And so that, of course, changed the Cowboys' plans. They ended up taking Tyler Booker a few picks later. And you pounded the table and the Cowboys were right there with you because they understood that they needed a playmaker on the outside. They needed a receiver. They wanted Ted McMillan at 12.

| 1:37.5 | And then we see how the draft plays out for the Cowboys. |
| 1:40.5 | And in the second round, we're sitting there, at least me. Okay, who are they going going to get there's some names on the board that you're excited about maybe it's it's trey harris the wide receiver from old miss or rj harvey the running back from UCF they were on the board no the Cowboys go edge rusher which at the time we all kind of i remember going You needed an edge. Okay. Well, round three is where they're going to make the move. |
| 2:05.4 | And of course, we get into round three and the Cowboys decide once again to go in a different direction than what we were sitting there hoping that they would do. |
