It's the Downbeat on ninety seven one in the Trees, tracking all the big stuff for you today, including the news that we learned in the first segment of the show. Bill Bella check out as the head coach of the Patriots. Whether you care or not, I don't know, that's kind of up to you. But he is, I care well of those iconic coaches in all of sports. Yeah, and he gone, as is Nick Saban And I think you know Pete Carroll a little bit. I think that has cowboy
ramifications. Dan Quinn used to be the defensive coordinator in Seattle if he wanted out. It sucks that the way the NFL does these things, they are they almost maybe it's great, but if your team's in the playoffs, you're like, I don't like all this conversation around my coaches. Can we just play the game? Because we shouldn't be talking about will dan Quinn take the Seahawks job? Will Mike McCarthy get fired at the Packers? Is we shouldn't
be talking about those things. But you know what, their damn owner does not help things. Whenever time he moves his mouth, he just won't say the words. Mike will be the coach next year, which would really calm all that down and shut it up. Even asked that straight up. He's pretty ambiguous. I don't know if he's messing up. I was reading one quick thing on Nick Saban and Earns in a rush to sort of who's next. No, no, well, yeah, of course that, but just
the shocking numbers and success of this dude. I read this, I can't get out of my head. Every single player recruited by Saban at Alabama who played four years won a national title. Not amazing. That is unbelievable. I mean it doesn't include I guess the current players, but that's wouldn't apply now. He way more respect for Belichick than he with Saban, just because the Bilichick is less of a jerk than Saban. In my estimation, Saban
does strike you as a guy who was real but hurt. I always had took a little bit, no not offense to this, but I was like, thought it was real eye rolly when he would make comments about not paying college amateurs, you know, because it'll mess up the system and then transfer portal, which is happening. But it's like, how come they can't get paid but you can go get paid by doing a Guico commercial, right.
I don't like that. So, you know, he kind of gained the system a little bit for years because you know, Alabama was probably, or at least it's possible that they were taking part in some illegal transactions for football players. It's been happening in college football forever. Yeah, I know.
Now it's all even playing field, like can you sustain it? I saw some of the names of the Oregon coach Lanning, the Washington coach DeBoer, and then there's a pring it through the other big juicy Vegas odds type of rumor was for who might get that job? Do you think anybody would pull a Harball and go from the pro ranks down to that position? See, I mean Harbaugh wants to go to the pros. A bunch of guys get fired recently. Yeah, but do you even know how to do that whole?
Do you know how to do that life? You know, the college recruiting lit I wonder there's a big distinction between what those guys do and what they do in the NFL. For sure. You know who would make sense? Now he's doing graded Texas and Texas going to the SEC Sarkeisian would have made since there, Lane Kiffin had all those ties there, and it's almost
like they have had a head coach in waiting. Bill O'Brien might make sense of all these Alabama assistant coaches who have spent a whole time in the NFL too, But I don't know, there's there's a lot of there's a lot of things to discuss there. Forty four first round picks in seventeen seasons he produced, I would have thought, did not lie to them kids. You know how some coaches walk in the living rooms and say whatever you want to
hear. I mean, granted you're Alabama, but have Emma kind of sucked in the years prior they had that down turn where they were not good? Yeah? And then I saw this, maybe not his first year, one of his first years, when they lost to T Bow and the Gators. That's the only SEC championship game he lost, damn and then just never lost again after that in the SEC title game. But forty four first round picks in seventeen years, I mean, if you're a big school, what's your
what's a good number? Two first round picks? Three? I mean, I know some years you have six or seven. Alabama's had like crazy numbers. The University of Miami's had some big numbers. Two but threes three is outstanding. Yeah, so two is like hell, yeah, we had two first round picks. Yes, we had forty four in seventeen years. A school like Texas Tech has had a first rounder of the last two years and it's like game changing, and it's up there recruiting and matters. It's interesting
to see for them. And then Alabama routinely five guys you can talk about might go first round every year. Yeah, NonStop sales, big news, obviously, and I want to kind of keep the football thing going. We have a little fun at nine o'clock. Dating apps are on the decline, Okay, the next generation might not be into it. Gotta have some fun studies there. But also we could take your calls two and four, eight seven seven eight seven. If you have any wild if you have any wild
dating app stories, go ahead, let's do we have our types. Today's edition of the Super Wild Card Pump Session come on Thursday, the second day, brought to you by Rodney Anderson dot com. How about that? Thank you, Rodney. I went through call Rodney three sleeps, three sleeps. I went to the Packers Cowboys playoff history. They've played eight times in the playoffs in the playoffs and record four and four. Oh, this is technically the super Bowl on Sunday. This is for the the Golden Cheese. It's
for the McCarthy Cup, the Cowboy cheese hat. Yeah, do you have a cheese hat? Yes? He does growing up right now now, you couldn't find one either at your current home or at your parents' house in the nineties. I bet if they still have it. Yeah, dude, you could have been thrown out if I got a warrant to search your folks ranch in all would I find a cheese Would I find a cheese answered, Danny, Uh, you might. Would I find one in the air tractor hanger?
It's a legit question. I will ask my mom and see if she wrote rummage through a closet or two and see if because it's very possible. Okay, yes, with all my old guitars. January first, nineteen sixty seven was the first playoff game here and this was Super Bowl one. Conference championship game winner takes on the Chiefs in Super Bowl one and Green Bay won
that game. Thirty four to twenty seven. But as Vince Lombardi versus Tom Landry and this game took place where here in town Cotton Bowl, it was kind of nuts to think about. I know I'll ever have it. I still support one home game a year for the Cowboys of the Cotton I mean it'd be like the Winter Challenge or every other year, even like on the years that you have nine home games rather than eight, I would pay it would be outstanding, more than I would pay to go see them at Jerry
World. If they played one game in fair Park, one game a year, it would be so cool. What does it hold one hundred thousand people? Yeah? Does it? Yeah? I mean yeah, close to it. This is the Texas game. Yeah, that game bart Star four touchdown passes three and four yards, kind of modern day passing line. So the Packers go to Super Bowl one. They beat the Chiefs. Game two December thirty first, nineteen sixty seven, Lambeau Field. Your kickoff temperature negative thirteen
degrees. That sounds nice. Your real field negative twenty three. Jesus, you know what Jesus Packers got? That guy was right fourteen. Nothing is that. The Ice Bowl is the Ice Bowl Cowboys fought back seventeen fourteen, and you know the story. Third and goal at the one, and here's what happened. JJ, we've taken up my audio here. Here we go. Call those the signals. He peeps in himself and then another thirteen. None of the packers had any idea that Star would run the ball on the
play designed for the full back. I took off fully expected to get the ball. A couple of things are going through my mind, but the most important one was don't assist him into the end zone. And I couldn't pull up because it was so icy, so I threw my hands up in the air like this. So the very famous picture looks as if I'm signaling touchdown.
What I'm honestly signaling is to any referee that was watching, I did not push him in the end zone, which would have been a penalty, which would have negated everything my house football is ch Jim Taylor's talking about. I would have penolized. I couldn't touch him. But it is funny I was watching that. I don't remember it too much. I'm glad he left that in. He throws his hands up, he is he's clearly doing the
no shoot hands, you know, oh yeah, there it is. Look at that he's yeah, I know, he just put his hands up because he want approved. He's not pushing him. That's crazy. It looks like he was great saying touchdown, he's in and thirteen seconds left. That's the thing with that time though. The Packers don't think had any timeout. So his third and goal, they knew it was all in. They wouldn't have been able to unpile. You know, people are slower back then to the
reference were jogging in there to get the ball. They would have been able to do the fourth down play. Sure, and uh yeah. So Packers when they go on and they went Super Bowl two over the Raiders. Was Jerry Kramer off sides. I watched the clip about three or four times and he there's no false start. But the was the argument that he was offside, that there was a false start off side, But they kept watching it
and I was like, it looks like a normal play. But have you ever We interviewed Jerry Kramer about that a long time ago and he said some crazy stuff like what that that cat, Papa, I'm I'm serious. It was kind of close to that. What was amazing about it has been in skin didn't know what he said, and they had a real fake laugh after it. I'm gonna find you. It's hilarious. It's so funny, said
Jerry Cramer. We're the only negative thing we've ever heard is a guy in Dallas as I was offside at the Ice Bowl, which of course isn't true. I got a great start. I wasn't off side. He got a great start. It's cool to hear the John Fashinda. Oh yeah, the pipes. Can you imagine what our ratings would be if we all had pipes like him? You do? You have incredible pipes like that guy? You do a John Facinda. And here's some football. That was water burger ball.
That's basically it's back to Hamburgers again. Yeah, it's the Hamburger Hour. On the down beat eight to nine, tune in Daily Force Slices a real ground beef. Jerry Kramer was offside touchdown? Stupid? What a football game? What a football game? That's not what he's confused? All right, So what Packers are two and ol at this point? At this all right, we need some dubs. Game three eighteen, nineteen eighty three, nineteen eighty two season. They went fifteen years without being in the playoffs.
This game's at Texas Stadium. Cowboys are seven point favorites. Bart Stars, the head coach of the Packers. At this point Cowboys forgotten that. I didn't know that. Cowboys won thirty seven to twenty six Tony Dorset ninety nine yards rushing. Oh, I thought it was you were saying nine to nine yard run. I think that was against was anythingst Minnesota. It was a Monday night game, right this Vikings. I feel like that is right what
you just said. Cowboys would lose the next game to Washington, who ended up beating the Dolphins in the Super Bowl. Was some tough early eighties redskin teams back there. Yeah. Is that the Doug Williams years or am I early? That was before? Oh? Yeah? It was Riggins and Riggins, the Diesel and Art Monk, yep Art and Monk. Game four, so it's two to one now. Game four, January sixteen, nineteen ninety four, Chixas Stadium and Cowboys were thirteen and a half point fair, Yes,
and they smoked him. They got up twenty four to three. They won twenty seven to seventeen. Michael Irvin nine catches one hundred and twenty six yards, and then they would go on to beat the forty nine ers at Candlestick and then the Bills in the Super Bowl thirty to thirteen. Brett Farv, right, Brett Farv and that, Yeah, Brett Favre could not slay the Texas Stadium dragon. He just never was it never could. Now, real quick, here's the Jerry Kramer thing. So I don't forget okay,
so we don't want to go too far. I want you to listen to Ben and Skin's reaction at the end after he says, after he says, nothing wacko stuff I've ever heard in my life. Uh, and it's gonna be heard on ninety seven one The Freak, The Home of the MAVs. Mister A concentration period of college students, five minutes high school, the free minutes kindergarten at thirty seconds. You don't have that, So where does that put you? Oh? My god, is itsy? The fig laugh after
the pause is even worse because you're like it now. But what is he saying? Concentration period of college students, five minutes, high school, the free minutes kindergartener, thirty seconds. You don't have that. Where's that put you? Buskins? Oh man, right in the head? Man, you bet, I don't know what he said. That is super one more I need it Levatomy laughs. Mister oh sorry, I'll play it all because I want to decode Jerry Kramer. Mister concentration period of college students, five minutes,
high school the free minutes kindergartener thirty seconds. You don't have that, and where's that put you? Okay, God, that's amazing wrestler being interviewed. I remember sitting there going. I was like, it does only a wrestler warming his voice up for a promo, and he didn't think they started recording yet. That is beautiful. Head. Give that the last reaction. She shaved her head off, hang the head. I don't know so January fifth, I'm sorry. January eighth, nineteen ninety five. Two. Come
on. I was actually at this game as a six year old. The Cowboys had already beat the Packers in the regular season by twelve. They smoked him in this game, thirty five to nine. Janova check eleven catches for one hundred and four yards. Cowboys would go on and lose to San Francisco next week, and San Francisco and Steve Young beat the Chargers in Super Bowl twenty nine. Expect a big game from Ferguson on Sunday. Always huge. Oh, he's a head close to it, close to one hundred yard day
for him. Mark it down, Okay, mark it down today, March, mark it down, hot predictions. He couldn't wait till tomorrow shows game six. So it's three two Cowboys Game six. January fourteenth, nineteen ninety six NFC Championship Game, Texas Stadium. Michael Orvin had two first quarter touchdowns. If you remember, there's a long delay in the second quarter because the
Packers wide receiver coach Gil Haskell got hit on the sideline. You may not remember this that and it is. You know, you remember how concrete Texas Stadium was. We thought that he was dead here, and I think it was pretty close. Here's Pat Sumraw and John Madden on the call down that goes. Here's five, not much. There's someone down on the other side of that fan got hit right into the fan. I'm not even sure it's a player you're gonna see right here. Brooks gets the ball and he gets
hit out of mound. What when Darren Woodson delivers a blow, you don't get up until you they are about five yards outside. The score is tied at seventeen. Mike Holmgren the head coach, and you can just see that the fans here were into the football game. Then when Gil Haskell was injured, I think that took a lot of these fans out of the football game. Took a lot of everyone out of the game. It was a long delay. I mean there are five minutes of the second quarter. It was
like a thirty minute delay. Yeah, because he is an older guy, right, yeah, the older guy, and he got hit and his head like full force, the back of his head hit the concrete. I'm watching it right now. Oh yeah, he had got hit like in the front of his Yes, and it did though the whip trebuchet whip and Darren Woodson does not Like he makes the tackle on Robert Brooks and Darren Woodson is standing there kind of freaking out. Yeah, Like you know, nowadays, it
feels like you just see the players run back onto the field. They don't. Oh, they're not as as violent, man, They're not as remorseful as I feel like they should be. When they hit these guys. Not their fault. They hit these guys on the sideline. Darren Woodson is like panicking just in there, like you could tell he thought he did bad. He's just making a clean town. Oh yeah, of course, but it's still scary. That field was so concrete, you know. Yeah, game
held up for ten minutes. He had a skull fracture. Oh right, yes, broke his head. Yeah, I mean not even the not even the doctor and the cowboy hat can fix that. No. Cowboys led twenty four to seventeen at halftime. They put them in the way, put them away at the second half him and had three rushing touchdowns. But the trophy
presentation of this day is pretty wild. And let's start with a little bit because I think it's kind of funny when you hear James Brown throw it down to Jerry Jones and they talk about the TV shows they're promoting on Fox at this point, But then the Jerry Jones is getting interviewed by Terry Bradshaw. It's pretty funny. Following his postgame show It'll be Space, I'll above and Beyond, followed by the Simpsons. By the way, it's gonna sound weird.
It was recorded off a TV on his YouTube and the marriage with children at Man and Stacey. All of that coming your way in is entirely except on the West coast. And right now we've got some championship proceedings thinking down in the field. Let's go down field side and join Arry Bradshaw to present the Georgias Pallas Trophy to owner of the Dallas Cowboys, Jerry Jones. The Georgis Pallas Trophy. I know coach Dallas had this Dallas Cowboy team in my

We're gonna do the best to represent you. Great to be here at Texas Stadium in Irvin for fans to say this boy, hadn't football changed thirty years ago? You weren't thinking about representing the NFC. Low We got refews at the NFC. But that is year two or three of you know, NFL Sunday ticket and
football being out there, people learning more about all these teams. A large sport thanks to Jerry, Now you are looking to give the trophy now to Barry Switzer. There's some indication now for Paris Switzer, head coach of the Cowboys. I never with that. I've never looked for that, Terry. All I want is something that is happening to day for this football team. And so a jutiful football team, a lot of great young men, a lot of character. I've never been to the big one. They told him,
it's a lot of fun. We've got something else to do, and I'm looking forward to it, Okay. And then they finds Michael Irvin and this is so good. This is pro wrestler level involving the crowd. And at the end of this clip, while Michael Evern's talking Jerry Jones, it's a cutaway of Jerry Jones picking up his wife Jeane unexpectedly almost breaking her bag by even coming up and giving her a whiplash by picking her up and swooping her that her blue baton go flying off to the forty yard line. Michael
Irvin, though, is such a pro here involving the fans. Yeah, I'll tell you why too. Not knowing me get on new players play be I mean, if you was here, you've felt did you felt electricity in the air?
