Roger Staubach is one of my all-time personal heroes. He is the reason I'm a Dallas Cowboys fan even though I've never been to Dallas, and the closest I ever came to Texas was to drive through the panhandle on my way from New York to Los Angeles years ago.
Then you drove I40 through Amarillo. Me too but the opposite way. Roger Staubach and most assuredly the ghost of Tom Landry (may he RIP) amen
You should visit.
G-d blessed Texas with His own hand.
Shalom.
"Roger Staubach is one of my all-time personal heroes"
Amen to that. I know stastically there are better - but few better men have ever played the game. I wasn't even a football fan when we moved to TX from NY in 1977 - but my dad took my brother and I to Texas Stadium to see a game and I fell in love - with the sport and with Staubach. Almost 30 years later (gosh that's scary!) I still love the Cowboys because of Roger the Dodger. :)
I would include Coach Landry as an all-time personal hero along with Roger Staubach.
That's all I've ever seen of Texas, too, but I must say I was impressed anyway! Even my teenaged daughters remarked about it, saying it was one of the prettiest states we traveled through on our "road trip" to the Midwest a few years back.
