Funny I was down town Ft Worth today and I saw this cut out statue I thought was Tom Landry because of the Fedora hat. Quick Google search pulled up this pic.


Cutout looks like a forest ranger with a briefcase.

wow, that was friggin awesome!

would have loved to have heard that story live

:laugh2:

I appreciate that. The art of storytelling is lost. I blame TV and reruns of The Hogan Family.

There is this other story that I knew. When Pietro Rozelli embarked from the Edward Morain, a Swedish freighter, he eyed the American landscape as a fertile field for what was to be NFL football. His vision was for a climactic championship game, a Super Game, to be played each January or February in a warm climate while Cleveland shivered. He hated Cleveland, where his uncle Pete "Two Heads" Rozelli had run the rail yard unions . . . I will finish this story later on after I eat a sandwich.

I'd rather have a statue of Jimma, who brought us two Lombardini trophies (he was screwed out of a third Super Bowl) in something like 7 years.


Do, it Jerra. Jimma was the coach stud of the Cowboys.

:spanking:Over Tom Landry? You must be young......

Um wow.

Because I mean 20 straight winning seasons is nothing.

Establishing the FCA is surely the work of a lesser man.

Bringing back the shotgun, establishing the 4-3 flex defense, all the work of a man who should kiss Jimmy Johnson's jock.

Im 19 years old, but theres not a greater man who has been involved with football in my opinion. Anytime I have free reigns on choosing who to write a paper on or give a speech over, you bet its on Tom Landry.

I have read every biography, and his auto-biography and there is not a man I would rather emulate my lifestyle after than him.

Rant off...

Who cares? He was fired from here. Move it to the NFL Zone with the T.O. threads to be fair.


You are such a class act, I just don't know what to say!

I wish I could read...

After reading this quote, I feel like Wade does in your avatar.
