Our friend who coordinated this for us is going to send the youtube to him...I hope he does not get upset hearing Luke say that. I'm sure he won't, but I'm a bit worried.

I bet Roger Staubach will laugh his heart out when he hears that. Don't worry about it!

I read about Roger doing stuff(maybe not to this degree) all the time. He was not only a true great Cowboy - he is just a great person in general.

This was very touching..

"I didn't know he was still alive! *gasp!*"

^-- That was tremendous.

PF, that's a great story and I really enjoyed the youtube video as well.

I think you were about to say that Staubach won "two World Ser ....." :D

But you caught yourself!

I hope you and your family are doing well and enjoyed the Easter holidays.

Yeah...I almost did. I had baseball on my mind. I coach my 8 yr olds baseball team, so I have baseball on the brain right now.

My wife did not want me to put this out there because she was hushing my older boy in it...I thought that was funny too. I had to though because their excitement is so great.

After reading what Luke said about Romo, We all need to try and get him a ball signed by Romo. I know its easier said than done, but with all the contacts people on here have Im sure someone can get it done.

I missed it, what did he say about Romo?

I'll be glad to try and get word to him, but can't promise anything.

[Dear Mr. Staubach,]

Thank you for the football-I love it and will keep it on my dresser forever. It's a real football! I know you play football. I watch you play on my Super bowl DVDs. I know you are a good player. And I know what team you played on. The Cowboys. I LOVE the Cowboys. And guess what? I think Tony Romo is good too. Can he run as fast as you do? Thanks for the football. I let my brother touch it when he is nice to me.

From,

Luke

Portland, loved the video. I felt like a six-year old the day I met Troy Aikman a couple years back!

I'm sure Roger didn't hesitate an instant to sign that football. It's nice to see that good people are still around.

As many others have said, your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

It's no concidence that Dallas picked-up the moniker "America's Team" while Roger was calling the signals. He represents the class that has always marked the Cowboys, both the team and the fans, with a few digressions in the '90's.

Portland, we will pray for your son and you and your family everyday until he is well. God Bless you all...

They say the funniest things to each other...when we were putting it up on the shelves Luke told Zach (my 8 yr old) that he can't touch it unless he's around. Little Bro telling big bro that...
