Remember the Dallas Cowboys in the old days and how they use to pull out the greatest wins with no time left and one yard line?

I grew up on “Captain Comeback”, “Roger the Dodger” - who threw the FIRST and original (so-called) “Hail Mary” pass to Pearson...seventy something yards or thereabouts.

Years before Doug Flutie even entered college

Staubach was an anomaly in his day - a huge quarterback at 6’3 and 225lbs - as big as many of those who tried to tackle him.

He was big enough and supremely skilled enough as a passer and scrambler, not to mention his unflappability - that he would succeed as a young man even in today’s game. Small wonder he racked up almost 23,000 yards passing/2 Super Bowl titles ‘way back’ in the 1970s!

Last night’s win over New Orleans’ Saints was epic - one of Dallas biggest, most valuable wins in at least the last five seasons.

For me, the Cowboys are THE team, and others in the pro ranks are a distant second.

I hope America can pull out a last-second win over this worthless bunch of cheating scrubs in DC.

A.A.C.
