A recent blog post on Google's official blog outlined a bunch of search trends in relation to football. The whole article is interesting, but the most interesting for Cowboys fans is this:

The old saying goes, “on any given Sunday,” meaning that every team has a chance to win each time they hit the field. The adage manifests itself in typically balanced standings that last throughout the season and into the playoffs. But when it comes to search, we’re not quite so fair and balanced. In fact, there’s a clear favorite, and by this measure they really are “America’s Team”: the [dallas cowboys]. In the U.S., the Cowboys lead all other teams in search query volume, followed by the [chicago bears] and the [green bay packers].

Not surprising to Cowboys fans, but interesting nonetheless.

Cool. But they would be a lot farther ahead if most folks wouldn't have already bookmarked the zone.
