Dak has not impressed me.
Win or lose, Cowboys are my team... and the last games I actually watched were the early '90s (Troy Aikman), but I also remember Roger Staubach, back when American Football was still a sport, not a rule/commercial infested advertisement.
I miss the Staubach days when the football field was real, and if it rained, they had to fight through mud :P , and Astroturf had never been heard of...

One of the things I love about getting older is that I can be more dispassionate about many things, and sports figures were one of the the first things to fall for me.
I used to hate Roger Staubach with a white hot burning passion back in the day when I was a Redskins fan when George Allen signed on as the Redskins coach!
But, I have, with the passage of time, come to see him as a fine quarterback!

I remember when the Colts were in Baltimore, and their field was basically nothing but dirt.
