Dallas Cowboys

I am a Cowboy fan…Let me see, when did they start playing, maybe early ’60s…But whenever it was, that is when I became a fan…You remember Eddie LaBaron, the 5’6″ quarterback they got from Washington, I think….Those big linemen would rush him and he would have to throw the ball almost straight up to get it over the out stretched hands of the rushers..Then Dandy Don came on…You know, in my humble opinion, if Don Meredith had been behind a better offense line, he could have been the greatest quarterback ever. Coach Tom Landry, a class act and great coach, if ever there was one…I watched him play for the New York Giants, defensive back and a pretty good one… Don Perkins, you remember him? Calvin Hill, Robert Newhouse, Bob Lilly, Randy White, Leroy Jordon, Chuck Howley, Cliff Harris, on and on they go, up to all the later players which all of you remember…. Tony Romo will be among those we look back on with fondness…mark it down, he is a good’un…He is a make do, make up, do it when the chips are down type qb and I think in the mold of a Don Meredith or a Bret Favre…one of those guys who think on their feet…Yes, he does get in trouble, but he can make thing happen and he has more heart than any player I have seen for some time…Yeah, the Cowboys are either loved or hated….I have never changed…They have been my team since forever….win or lose they are my team….I just wanted to go on record…
