Did you know that the Cowboys STILL have the best historical win percentage among all franchises at 56.9 percent?
That how good they were...when they were good.
I became a fan in 1970 and enjoyed 10 NFC championship appearences, 5 Super Bowl appearences, and 2 Super Bowl championships before I experienced my first losing season in 1986....7-9.
They had started out the season 6-2 with a RB duo of Tony Dorsett and Herschel Walker. However, Danny White got hurt and that was devastating.
When Jimmy Johnson came, I was resentfull at first because of the way Landry was treated. But I knew, from the way Jimmy was building this team, that they would have a period of success. I certainly didn't see 3 Super Bowls in their first seven seasons.
My greatest fear is that I will get used to the Cowboys losing. I can report that, for now, it hurts just as much as it did when they rarely lost.
