Just a little less than Phillips, in my experience. But maybe he knows ASL(?).

Who would you add as a 4th voice to DC.com's Talkin Cowboys to make it an improved listen?

How about one of those vaquero dudes that run around the stadium with the spark making Cowboys flags after each TD? They wear the black Cowboy hat, white long sleeves and jeans.
I've always wondered how I could get that gig. Surely they get to hang out with the cheerleaders.

Hey, you forgot my name...I think a got a vote...Soooo... playing this out to the next level.... it appears we have our nominee list...
So, let's make this easy.
1. Which options are not just acceptable, but that you'd actually be enthusiastic about? (limit 3, at most, plz)
2. Which options are not even barely acceptable, and that, as a rule, would actually turn you off from listening to TC? (limit 3, at most, plz)
(I'll wait to chime-in myself.)
Remember that just b/c you like someone doesn't mean s/he would mix well with Nate/Mickey/Rob... take that into consideration please.
Interested to see what comes back.
Seriously, the only media guys that would want to discuss real details would be Sturm and Vela. I think the Cowboys connection with 105.3 The Fan would keep them from considering Sturm.
The ex-players and Campo need to be on a show with a strong host. If you had one of the legit Radio personalities or Brad Sham as the lead host, then having the ex-players or coaches would work, but with those knuckleheads that are on the show now, it would be a disaster.
If Jean-Jacques Taylor or Skip Bayless were on fire, I would not
on them to put it out. They should never be associated with the Cowboys.I would be happy to drink Johnnie Walker Blue on the air. Actually, I would need a couple before the show in order to deal with those knuckleheads.

Appreciate the extensive thoughts... and I think I understand JJT and Bayless are your answer to #2 (and incidentally I'm with you on that part)... but I'm cloudy on your answer to #1.

No, xwalker. You'd scare everyone with your face paint.

I think what's most missing from Talkin is that element that Broaddus provides in Break, which is someone who brings some technical expertise, not merely opinion or war stories or homer-istic hyperbole. There are (arguably, at least) individuals on Talkin who are capable of the occasional intriguing observation or compelling opinion. But there's no one around the table who commands any respect for what he brings to the exes and ohhs part.
Is that accurate?
But then, I look at that list, and the only one who seemingly fits that role ought to be Campo... yet, Campo doesn't really ever seem to actually do that on any of the other shows where he's participated.
Maybe this is a lost cause.

that settles it, you get my vote and I'd watch all the time too so I could make sure I didn't miss that glorious moment

Nate does that. A former OL who knows the game, knows offenses and defenses. Mickey has been around the game long enough to provide stuff. People may not like the way he brings it, but I've heard him discuss finer points of the game too.

"Spags......Bro?!?!?" seems like a better name imo

Must be the times I haven't been listening. When I listen, it's pretty much strictly "I tell people all the time [insert opinion here]."
True, and so do Eatman and Eagleton... but none of those are necessarily any more credible than one of us.

Mickey, has been covering the team since the 1980s. Don't know how more credible you need to be. But that's just me..
