The Dallas Cowboys in the Super Bowl. It is the goal of every season for the football team and its fans. It is where my time as a fan began, and one day where I hope it ends. I’d like nothing more than when it is time to draw my last breath on earth to have enjoyed another Super Bowl win before I go. I hope it is our 15th or better by that time, far ahead of the Green Bay Packers, Pittsburgh Steelers, San Francisco 49ers, and New England Patriots. I also hope the Philadelphia Eagles are still looking for their first.

The first football game I ever remember watching was Super Bowl V. The Dallas Cowboys were in blue, the Baltimore Colts were in white. I was six at the time and I had already decided the color blue was my favorite color. That was important to a six year old’s mind. So I was sitting on the floor in my grandpa’s living room and I was transfixed by how good the team in blue looked on his old Sylvania television. I liked the silver helmets with the blue star too. I wasn’t exactly a talkative kid back then. That changed later, now I never shut up.

Wow, we have a lot in common. My first game I remember watching was Super Bowl V as well, and I have similar memories of my mother's conversion to Cowboy fandom until we shared a game the day before her death after a long battle with the same leukemia that claimed Tom Landry. I am in total agreement with everything you said, and I have also always taken great pride in how close our SB losses were while our victories were always huge! Great read, brother. I've missed your posts over here.

I agree. This was a fun read. I didn't know about Percy Howard so I'll go see what I can find.
Thanks for stoking the embers of my Cowboys passion.

Glad you shared that about your Mom and first game.
