Cowboys to visit African Museum in DC after game

[Batman1980]

The Cowboys will remain in the Washington D.C. area after Sunday’s game to visit the National Museum of African American History and Culture. The Cowboys have done a few of these field trips with Jason Garrett as coach, visiting the 9/11 Memorial a few years ago and spending time at NASA before a preseason game in Houston. “I think we’re all striving to be our best and I think that’s what you try to do as a coaching staff, always try to help everyone on your team be the best that they can be,” Garrett said. “There’s so many different inspirational examples that we have. Many of them in sports. Many of them in football. But so many outside of sports. So there are so many different ways you try to have this message be in front of your team on a daily basis. Again, this is a unique experience for us to be able to go up there. The schedule worked out well and There’s so many amazing things about our country that are commemorated in Washington and this is the one we wanted to see and I think everybody is excited about the opportunity.”

Cool.
If I'm not mistaken, I believe Mark Holmes did some remodeling on that museum. He's a big time Cowboy fan/You Tube blogger.

Cool. Another field trip for the boys.

Yeah, hopefully it helps strengthen the camaraderie, within the organization. When 53 players and coaches have each others backs, beautiful things can happen.

Why is there an African museum in DC

Maybe because it was built by slaves?...or maybe because there's a very large black community in D.C.?

Sadly that museum was a big disappointment. They really need to acquire more works and redo the layout of the works. When I went a few years ago there was an extremely over excessive amount of space between the few displays in each area.

I think it's an African American Museum, not a purely African Museum. If it was purely African (or Eastern European, Asian, etc) it would probably be an exhibit within a current general museum.

Because Washington, DC is the nation's capital and a perfect location for such a distinguished historical museum for all to visit when visiting our nation's capital.

In my mind you sound like Forest Gump when you say that, no offense of course

Maybe because of the extraordinary contributions made by African Americans in building this nation?

 

[Wolfpack]

Hopefully they can squeeze a trip to sea world in too, for old times sake.

I'm sure it will be very educational.
I would hit the Smithsonian while i was there too.

Dear Mods, can one of you PLEASE CORRECT my accidentally misused word in my original post up above? I had a terrible brain fart! I meant to say "distinguished" historical museum. My sincerest apologies to anyone whom I accidentally offended.
