Terrell Owens only played three seasons for the Dallas Cowboys, 2006–2008. And that is the only reason he is not in the top three on this list. T.O. was a lightning rod before he ever donned a Cowboys uniform because of his brazen act of celebrating on the midfield star at Texas Stadium after scoring [...]
Everybody loves a list and I've got one for you: the top ten most colorful characters in Dallas Cowboys history. Please understand that this is not a list of the team's top players, though some of the best players in team history are on it. It is not a list of the most beloved players in franchise [...]
ESPN's Todd Archer has written a fantastic article on Dwayne Goodrich, the former Dallas Cowboys defensive back, who was recently released from prison after serving six and a half years for negligent homicide and failing to render aid.

Aikman, like many Cowboys [...]
Remember the January 4, 2006 BCS championship game when the Texas Longhorns shocked the mighty USC Trojans, winning the game 41–38? Remember the great Vince Young solidifying his legend, taking over a BCS championship game like no one before or since? Remember how he completed 30 of 40 passes for 267 yards and carried the [...]
Junior Seau was one of the greatest linebackers in NFL history. The hard-hitting phenom posted an astonishing 1,524 tackles, 325 assists, 56.5 sacks, forced 11 fumbles, and recovered 18. At one of the league’s most violent positions, he forged for himself a sparkling 20 year career. Twenty years! Seau got to play for his hometown [...]
You can accuse Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones of many things,—and I have—but being timid has never been one of them. Especially on the day of the NFL draft. Last night, the noted oil wildcatter-turned-NFL-general manager was at his root-’n’-tootin’, gunslinging best when he leaped from the pick 14 to pick six (yeah, [...]
