Oh man, I highly recommend somebody buy the DVD for this if you don't know anything about 1977.


Tony Dorsett talked about his struggles at the beginning of the season.

Drew Pearson and Charlie Waters talked about all the partying they were doing back then and just hoped that guys kept it together.

Hollywood Henderson seemed like Irvin and Portis all wrapped in one. Henderson said he beat Randy White for the LB spot and was insulted that White was moved to DT and that Landry told him he was competing with somebody named Mike Hepp(sp?).

They all said it was just a great time to be a Dallas Cowboy.

Tony D was the greatest.

You can't beat that classic NFL Films music, either.

Drew's mega-ultra-white teeth are freaking me out, though.

One of the best plays ever was when he took the ball out of Bradshaw's hands and ran it in for a TD in the Super Bowl. Awesome play.
