it's more on a 3-year-old kid, who started pulling for the team 27 years ago

Is a Texas Granny’s Curse Behind the Cowboys’ Super Bowl Drought?​


An Arlington native says the Dallas Cowboys won’t win another championship until the team restores her grandmother’s bluebonnet patch.

I recall that story about Ms Wray very well. She held up the eminent domain process encouraging others to hold out hiring attorneys.

Randall Mill road area was disrupted and families uprooted. And if you didn’t hire an attorney were short changed.

There was a lawyer in our Texas Stadium season ticket holder group which voiced objections to the new prices and PSL implemented in new stadium and encouraged these home owners to stall the process holding out for more .

Ms Wray case was the largest homeowner and received the most attention in the media gaining the largest homestead settlement.

And if we are cursed it’s by our owner. For everything he’s done and continues to do.

The cool part (for the billionaire worshipping crowd, I’d guess) is that lady’s tax money went towards replacing her garden with a parking lot.

Hip hip hurray for power bought and rich man tax breaks given!!! (Over and over)

No. It's a great story. But the Cowboys haven't won a championship because they haven't had any teams good enough to do so. The only legit chances we had since 1995 was 2007 and 2014. They've sucked building a team. Although they have done much better recently.
Wrong they've had a shot at least 3 out of the last 5 teams. The players just don't play up when they need to

The tax money that helped finance the stadium was a hotel room tax.
