You beat me to it!
One of the happiest days of my life!

What a great game.
I think I will watch that today while I tackle laundry and mopping.
Ken norton stuffing Kenneth Davis is still my favorite moment, it signified everything that team was about.
In 91 norton stood up Barry sanders on a 4th and 1 in the lions game but it didn't mean much in the end.
The euphoria from beating the niners in the championship game hadn't even worn off by the time we played the Super Bowl.
Then to win the sb was just amazing.

Being a Cowboys fan living in Buffalo...that was a pretty awesome day. I can remember walking around different parts of town with my fan gear on and Bills fans were so defeated they had nothing left in the tank to muster up any kind of defiant retort. It was a lot of eyes looking up, seeing my Cowboys jersey, and then eyes looking back down or away.
What could you say after a beat down like that?

My son just texted me that he is in the Philadelphia airport wearing his Cowboys hat.
Brings a tear to my eye, .. that's my boy!
(he is going to Cancun and I'm in WV watching it snow, .. what is wrong with this picture?)

Ha! Good for him. I can tell you...I have one of those power decals in my car that light up at night...people drive by and I get some looks. I don't care. Buffalo fans can maybe talk about what we've done lately, or haven't done lately, but I can always fall back on the two times we beat them in the SB. Things get quiet quick when you drop that full house on their table.

Norton's stonewall of Davis was one of the very best plays I have ever seen. The hit he put on Kelly was amazing. I remember it seem Ken was making plays all over the place that day. I remember it took forever for Ken to pick up Reich's fumble for the TD, LOL! I though Norton could have easily been picked the MVP just as easy as Troy was...
What an incredible day that was!
I couldn't speak the next day cause my throat was so sore from yelling
Hats off to the 1992 Super Bowl Champion Dallas Cowboys

I loved ken norton so much.
It was heartbreaking watching him in that stupid niners uni.
Jerry wouldn't pay a real cowboy player who was a big part of the locker room in norton and then he turns around and gives away a fortunate to Deion frigging sanders a front running outsider.
The uniforms of both teams against the natural grass and the sun that day is just perfect also.
I still think that should just be the home of the Super Bowl.

I was thinking the same thing the other day. I guess it doesn't have enough suites to get the super bowl anymore.

Where can you watch it? Will it be on the NFL Network?

Me too! Awesome, perfect, textbook form tackle.
And I loved Norton, too. One of my favorite players on that entire team. I still remember an SI article talking about the Cowboys (under Landry, of course) working him out on a LB drop drill where the usual depth was like 12 yards, and when the whistle blew he was at 18. Something like that. But he was a great athlete and a real tough guy.

Hard to believe it's been 20 years I was at that game it was the most nervous I have ever been prior to a Cowboys game. Nothing like seeing the Cowboys win a SB in person.
