2021 season countdown thread

1 day to Tampa Bay!

We made it, folks. Thanks to all who participated in this first-time thread. Special shout outs to @Hagman, @maryquality, and @Bobhaze who jumped on board immediately, and others who embraced it as we went along.

It's time to play some football.

Thanks to you @Jake for getting it started and making it happen. Let’s go Cowboys!

So, apparently, there were a few NFL players who # 0 or 00 prior to 1973 when they standardized the jersey numbering system. However, there was never a Cowboys player who wore #0/00. Jim Otto and Kenny Burroughs both wore 00 during their careers.

What? We never had a 0 or 00?

Good thread and good walk through history. Thanks for doing it. Gotta start at 99 next time so Chris Canty can finally have his moment, lol.

Too bad we never traded for Jim Otto...
