I am just posting for this to stay in the top post for all-time on this forum. Roger Staubach is the reason the Dallas Cowboys became America's Team. He reminds me why I am still a Dallas Cowboys fan even though Jerry has made the team the Dallas Jonesboys.
Now lets get Tom Landry awarded the Medal of Freedom. Tom Landry was a World War II bomber pilot, All Pro Punter/S for the Giants, Dallas Cowboys Head Coach for 29 years, 20 years in a row .500 and plus seasons, 18 playoff appearances in a 20 year span, 12 NFC championship games, 5 Super Bowls games, 2 Super Bowl NFL Championships, created the 4-3 defense used today and revised the shot gun formation that survives today in the spread formations, Trustee member of the fellowship of christian athletes and coaches and chairman of the Dallas Texas fellowship for 30 years, and the only Head Coach to coordinate both the offensive and defensive game plans the majority of his career. He is a cultural and pop Icon "the man in the funny hat", "America's team Head Coach", and for 29 years the only Head Coach the Dallas Cowboys ever had.
I had to pleasure to meet and talk to both Tom Landry and another potential medal of freedom winner Eddie Robinson. These men change lives on and off the field.
