Yes, everyone wants an insane owner and a team that wins a playoff game every decade or so. ;-)

Yet even after two decades of mediocrity after their 3 championships in 4 years, they are still arguably America’s Team as they have huge cheering sections at every road game they play. (BTW, they NEVER named themselves “America’s Team” and even tried to discourage that moniker; its origin was either Pat Summerall or one of the other national network commentators who noticed the large fan base for the Cowboys in their road games.) They are still both the most loved and the most hated team in the league, much like the Yankees in baseball and the Lakers and Celtics in basketball. As much as I dislike the Yankees and the Lakers (and the Blackhawks for that matter), I recognize that there is a certain amount of envy their too. So yes, other teams envy the Cowboys — even if they are loathe to admit it.
