00:00There was a column, an article that stirred things up and it came from the Dallas Morning
00:20News written by our good buddy Calvin Watkins.
00:24Yes, the great Calvin Watkins from the Dallas Morning News.
00:28Honestly, before the Luka Doncic trade, the biggest trade in the history of Dallas sports
00:33when he and John Machado were traded for each other at the Athletic in the Dallas Morning
00:36News.
00:37And our cigar buddy from the Combine.
00:40Did you go the light, a medium, or a harsher cigar there, Calvin?
00:44I go for strong.
00:45I need strong.
00:46I got a lot of stuff going on in my life.
00:47I need something to calm me down.
00:48Hey, it'll give you a nice little high on there.
00:53It'll give you a nice little high.
00:56So we had Calvin hanging out for us in Indianapolis.
00:59Do the Cowboys have a Micah Parsons problem?
01:03Take us inside the article, Calvin.
01:07I think the purpose of the article was to raise this question because there are some
01:11issues with Parsons.
01:15And I think they do have a problem with Micah Parsons that they have to kind of fix.
01:19And they're fixable.
01:21The biggest problem is it seems that there are people in the organization and it's
01:27in the locker room that might have a problem with Micah doing an in-season podcast.
01:33Last year, Malik Hooker mentioned it.
01:37And then this year before DeMarcus Lawrence left for Seattle, or after he left for Seattle,
01:41he said, hey, spend less time on Twitter and spend more time on trying to win.
01:47I know it's a little unfair to say that to Micah because DeMarcus Lawrence was also
01:52part of the 30-year Super Bowl drought.
01:55So there's some issues with Micah's in-season activities that have to be addressed.
02:01And when you have two players saying it, I think there's more players that care about
02:05it.
02:06You know what I'm saying?
02:07Yeah.
02:08And then the other part is the voluntary workouts.
02:11Like they get 90% attendance, you know, 90% plus.
02:16And Micah Parsons is not among that 90%.
02:18Now, yes, it is voluntary and who wants to work when it's voluntary?
02:23However, if you want to say you're a leader of this team, then you take your behind to
02:29the star and you work out.
02:31Dak Prescott was in the contract talks and he showed up.
02:34C.D. Lam showed up.
02:36Not last year, obviously, because he held out.
02:38But before that, he showed up and I'm sure he'll show up in a couple of weeks.
02:42So Zach Martin showed up, you know, unless there's a contract issue.
02:46So you want to be a leader, you have to show up to these things.
02:52And I think Micah is open to doing that, but the team is going to address it with him in
02:58contract talks.
02:59Now, there's something they can't put in writing because that's against the CDA.
03:02However, I think it's going to be suggested, hey, man, get your behind in here when we
03:07all get together.
