20 years ago, Jan. 2, 1994: The Day Emmitt Smith Carried America's Team

And they could have done so much more if Jerry's ego hadn't gotten in the way just a few months later. It makes me sick to think about that.

At least 4 in a row. Maybe 5.

But I'm pretty sure Jimmy planned on leaving after that no matter what. There were rumors long before he left. I don't think he ever coached anywhere more than 5 years and he saw free agency coming, but a chance to win 4 or 5 in a row might've made him stick around a little longer.

I wish you young'uns could at least enjoy the memories we old-timers have.

I have a very foggy recollection of my dad being excited around the time of the second Jimmy Super Bowl, and I distinctly remember my best friend and I watching Super Bowl XXX and yelling "How bout dem Cowboys!" in the streets after we won.

That's about all the memories I've got from those 4 years.
