The Dallas Cowboys are truly 'America's Team'
I and many others have lamented the exposure the Dallas Cowboys get, despite the team being a complete waste of everyone’s time.

On the one side are those who either think hockey never advanced out of 1976, or seriously wish it didn’t, and try to accentuate and focus on the “crazies in a cage” aspect.
