Thats not fair at all, White and Merideth are gone immediately leaving the age old (since Aikman retired anyways) question of Roger or Troy.
You need to consider apples against oranges here.
It will become a personal preference.
That said. Roger all the way. The greatest Cowboy (not named Tom Landry) to ever wear the star. Just my personal preference. But its still not fair.....
Troy was greatness and I love him, but Roger was true greatness. Both were first class, grade A citizens off the field. Both have turned into a success away from the game and both continue to provide a source of pride in our team and them personally.
You cant quantify these guys. There performance, there heart, their leadership, there character. there teammanship. Everything you want in a QB or player period for your team, was embodied in these men that came from seperate times and did the same thing in two different ways.
Wow, what a lineage to consider, then throw in the Danny Whites and Don Merideths and you have a history of glory, success and pride. No wonder non-cowboy fans really hate us. You look at reciver, RB, anywhere on the Defense, we can match anyones history, great player for great player, and blow many many franchises away in greatness. Many times in a shorter life span to date then the older franchises.
What a great feeling it is to be a Cowboys fan. Many teams fans will never feel like we do. What a shame.
