Because the last 25 years of teams has been used as wrappers for half eaten McRibs and created one gigantic landfill. People couldn't decide which was worse, the thing they just tasted or the team they wrapped it up in. McRibs are so nasty, they have to force the pickles on there at gunpoint.

During the Romo years, they had to get the two skinniest players to be on either side of him but bending because his ears blocked out the normal sized players. When they were sitting, they'd have to carve out some of the bench for Romo's butt so he wouldn't look taller than the other players.

Speak for yourself! Many of us love the McRib and can't wait for its return. Your recollection of the Romo years is terrible but funny nonetheless.

I'm thinking CC may have been drinking way too much with that cat in his avatar...

I was collecting Farrah Fawcett and Bo Derek posters back then.
I had ones for Lola Falana and Jayne Kennedy. The one with Linda Ronstandt on roller skates (reproduced from one of her album covers) - that poster was everywhere.

Does anyone recall were there Cowboys lunch boxes back then?

Joe, it was my attempt at humor. I was actually a fan but the constant fat butt remarks about Romo were just too hard to pass up.

Maybe my lithographs are from Pizza Hut, the ones @cowboyec talked about. It's been so long ago when I got them.
they were sold in '84 during our silver season celebration.
they had a thick blue border around the image of each player.
really cool.
