Many people think of the Dallas cowboys as a team that haven’t played in the Super Bowl for twenty years. They think this team is a team of losers and big mistakes through their coaches and trading of key players. But what they don't know is that in their prime years, they attended the Super Bowl eight times, besides winning five of those Super Bowl trips. The Dallas Cowboys first Super Bowl victory in came in 1972. The Cowboys started the game recovering a fumble and ending up getting a field
Clint Murchison, Jr. and Bedford Wynne were awarded a National Football League (NFL) expansion franchise on January 28, 1960, located in Dallas, TX.

Murchison’s and Wynne’s next moved was to high their front office personnel which were: Tex
Stephen A. Smith has a change of opinion regarding the Gred Hardy situation. In the past, he has supported the Dallas Cowboys on signing Greg Hardy, now he wants Hardy out of the NFL. Smith makes it clear that he never supported what Hardy did, but his rationale was since Hardy served his suspension somebody was going to sign him then why not the Dallas Cowboys. Machir believes that Hardy should of never been allowed back into the league in the first place, but only visual evidence should not change
for the Dallas Cowboys against the Carolina Panthers With Tony Romo back under center, offensive coordinator Scott Linehan now has the luxury to fully open up the playbook and let his quarterback direct the offense by doing the imperative things that don’t show up on the stat sheets, which is setting protections, reading defenses and changing plays to best position the offense. Romo’s unorthodox skills to extend plays from the pocket as one the best improvisers in the game gives the Cowboys’ offense
The 1-0 Dallas Cowboys will travel to Philadelphia on Sunday afternoon to face the 0-1 Eagles at 3:25 CT. A rivalry game between both teams. This will be ex Dallas Cowboys DeMarco Murray’s first game against his former team. So you know Murray will be looking to have a good game against his former teammates. The Cowboys will be with Dez Bryant, and Randy Gregory who both got hurt in the Giants game last Sunday night. This will be a hard fought game between both teams but I’m going to give you five
Dallas Cowboys take on the Los Angeles Chargers on Turkey Day The Dallas Cowboys and Los Angeles/San Diego Chargers don’t quite have the rivalry of a Washington Redskins or a Philadelphia Eagles but either way, the games between these two are always good ones. Out of the ten games these two have played, one game has been a blowout. It was a 23-9 victory for the Dallas Cowboys on October 15th, 1995. Troy Aikman was QB1 at the time, while the Chargers had backup quarterback Gale Gilbert for the injured

Dallas Cowboys vs. Green Bay Packers Any NFL fan wants at least two things for their team; for them to make it to playoffs and for them to win the super bowl. As a Dallas Cowboys fan, I was more than thrilled that the not-so-great-team from last year, actually made it to the quarterfinals this year. The quarterfinals game vs. the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field was not going to be just a normal game, or an easy defeat. Meetings with the Packers do not happen often, this would be the fifth time

This was due to the owner Jerry Jones why has said that no player will sit or take a knee on his team or he would cut them, but more on that later.

Yes!!! I jumped with excitement to finally be able to attend a game of my favorite NFL team of all time, The Dallas Cowboys. The view was great and the players looked ready to stomp all over the packers, but then there I was witnessing the crowd boo each other, and the opposing team players. What a shame I thought, a simple course of action being used to cause a nation's argument. Some of the players were kneeling during our nation's pledge. I thought WOW after everything that you receive here in
As Dr. Hughes has explained, my task is to explain the tensions within one of your passages and to speculate about what you were trying to accomplish in it. I am curious about the passage on pages 175-178 in which Billy is speaking with the Dallas Cowboy football players about his service in Iraq. In a sentence, I think your goal in the passage was to show that civilian that do not serve in the war do not understand the emotional strain that soldiers go through. In the passage on pages 175-178
This paper will explore separate articles that report on the civic responsibility of the Dallas Cowboys franchise and its impact on those who benefit from their generosity. However, the development of this understanding begins at the collegiate level. Student athlete’s involvement with individuals from diverse backgrounds develop growth and understanding the need to be involved (Gayles, Rockenbach, & Davis, 2012, p. 535).

“America’s Team” please stand up? This term is widely used throughout the media when referring to the Dallas Cowboys. “America’s Team” was first coined some 40 years ago while introducing them for a feature film by the legendary sport writer Bob Ryan. In the following years, because of their success and mass media exposure they were a team that America as a nation could identify with ,so the name stuck. The Cowboys since those days has regressed into a very mediocre team who only looks for moral instead of

Before the trade deadline (before the sixth game of the season), the Cowboys had not won a game that season, and the rookie head coach Jimmy Johnson believed that a full rebuild of the team was necessary, so he came up with a solution to end their losing streak and that idea was to trade Herschel Walker. He admitted that the Cowboys were not a very good team and that a drastic move would be the only thing that

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Lucky Whitehead has had his NFL contract terminated after being falsely attached to a shoplifting crime in June. Reports emerged on Tuesday that he had missed a court hearing relating to a case in which he had stolen $40 worth of goods from a Virginia convenience store in June. Players like Lucky are being falsely accused everyday. The NFL needs to update their fine policy. Offensive holding is the most fines and penalties given a year, the lineman are just
was a mediocre hitter. Back to the NFL: In 1996 with the Dallas Cowboys he became the first regular starter on offense and defense in 34 years. But make no mistake, with eight Pro Bowl selections as a cornerback, defense is where Sanders earns his big bucks. After intercepting 30 passes in his first six seasons, quarterbacks stopped throwing his way. Sanders, who earned back-to-back Super Bowl rings with the San Francisco 49ers and Cowboys, is a big-play guy. He holds the NFL record for career
LOOKING FOR A WIN-WIN SITUATION This past weekend marks the largest contract signing in Major League Baseball history. On the 12th of February 2000, Ken Griffey Jr. (formerly of the Seattle Mariners), signed a nine-year $116.5 million contract with his hometown Cincinnati Reds. The city’s fans were ecstatic to bring Griffey back, and considering he turned down an eight-year $148 million deal to re-sign with Seattle, they feel that the acquisition was a real bargain. It really is amazing when a man
