Lets make some more history Sunday CC!!!!!Oh, 15 years this time...

Larry Brown with his two interceptions in the Super Bowl, one a pick 6...I could not believe it.
Thats good stuff right thereI remember in 93 or 94 there was a Dal/SF regular season game, I was watching at a sports bar in NJ with my girlfriend. The bar was split with SF and Dal fans as if it was a playoff game. SF won that game and some girl in a Steve Young Jersey gets up and makes a comment about which team was "taking it up the ### today" needless to say a full on bar room brawl broke out. I probably could have broken it up, but I saw the Dal fans were winning, and I was not feeling very peaceful, so I just took my girlfriend and left while laughing. If that rivalry caused that much passion in Jersey, I can only imagine in SF or Dallas. It was like week 8 and we all knew the game was basically for home field advantage in the playoffs.
Brown did not score on either of those picks, I'm afraid.
He returned it to the six...that is true.
My reference:
Dallas Cowboys cornerback Larry Brown has two interceptions including one returned for a touchdown in a 27-17 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Super Bowl XXX.
Some backdrop:Lets make some more history Sunday CC!!!!!
Both Tom Landry and Roger Staubach shared pride, integrity, and were fully respectable...Wow! Thanks for the dance down memory lane. So many moments.
One that stands out - and it wasn't even a game - the Tom Landry Amex commercial. Not sure why, but that one sticks with me to this day and still makes me smile.
My vote for the best Cowboys team everThe 1977 Cowboys were just a complete bad *** team...The Defense in that Superbowl was total demolition and domination.
If there is one fantasy match up that i wish we could make happen in my opinion would be the 77 Cowboys vs 85 Bears.
That would of been fun.
1991 cowboys coming off 7 and 9 season, nobody expecting much. I’m in military and now down in NC. NO internet to easily get tickets back then. My father in law is from jersey and tries to get me tickets for cowboys giants. Nocan do, so he gets me week 15 against philly. He gets these in like week 3 so nobody is expecting this game to be a big deal. It turns out the winner of this game wins the east. Philly has Randall Cunningham and the gangrene defense.This game is bringing back many memories...I'm sure many of us have stories about the old days....it would be cool if we were allowed to share some to get the juices flowing... we could share stories about back in the day! Salud! Go Frikkin Cowboys!
The championship game the year before was just as bad. We had a a 1st and goal at the 2 yard line and didn’t punch it in. Meredith wound up throwing an interception in the end zone to end it. We should have won the first Super Bowl ever played.67’ Ice bowl was a kick to the gut I’ll never forget....
There would be no opportunity for a Hail Mary under today’s rules. That last drive was sustained by a 4th down pass ruled a completion even though the receiver (Drew if I remember correctly) didn’t get big feet in. Heck, I’m not sure he got either foot in. But it was ruled a completion because, at that time, they could rule the receiver would’ve come down inbounds had the defender not pushed him out.I remember that game , too.
It is an iconic game, where "Hail Mary" pass was born.
Alvin Harper on the Slant !!
Kmart TD
Deion PI on Irvin
Dwight Clark catch then meeting him and Too tall many years later here in Tampa at casino
Good story.1991 cowboys coming off 7 and 9 season, nobody expecting much. I’m in military and now down in NC. NO internet to easily get tickets back then. My father in law is from jersey and tries to get me tickets for cowboys giants. Nocan do, so he gets me week 15 against philly. He gets these in like week 3 so nobody is expecting this game to be a big deal. It turns out the winner of this game wins the east. Philly has Randall Cunningham and the gangrene defense.
My wife’s uncle is supposed to go to game with me...uh oh, he forgets it is his new sons first birthday so I’m on my own.
I get a four day pass from my military boss and make the ten hour drive to jersey. Sunday morning I drive to philly and park in street near the old veterans stadium. I park and get out of car and immediately a guy comments about parking near a cowboys fan.he is cool and takes me to his Tao
Gate, feeds me and gives. Me some beers. He walks me in stadium and shows me my seats. I’m sitting by myself wearing cowboys gear in philly.
Late in game kelvin Martin returns a punt, I think 83 yards for a tad, we win, win the east, win our first playoff game and lose following week.
That was my first cowboys game ever, and in reality, that was the game that started our mini dynasty.
Here I am now on a plane heading to Dallas for this game 33 years later with a few tears in my eyes as I tell this story as my father in-law, who was the best and always supported me as an 18 year old that married his daughter has since passed away three years ago. I have four daughters and know there is now way I’d have been as supportive to any 18year old that married one of my daughters.
The cowboys are more than just a football team to many of us.
