The Dallas Cowboys, winners of five Super Bowls and eight conference championships. America's Team, among the most beloved franchises and the highest valued in the world of professional sports.In honoring 60 years of Cowboys football, this book brings you behind-the-scenes stories, many of which have never been told, and hundreds of photographs that are being published for the first time. There is no way any fan can truly know their favorite team without Six Decades of Dallas Cowboys Football.For those who love a good debate, a distinguished 14-person media panel was assembled to vote on the greatest of the great, the 60 best players in franchise history. Who's No. 1? Inside, readers will find the official list the team will use in celebrating this special anniversary.In addition, all 60 seasons are remembered, complete with results, lineups, and records. And, of course, there are the interviews, the tales, the memories. Not only from the games, but also from the locker room, the practice field, the front office, and beyond. For example, during the 1964 NFL Draft, the Cowboys turned the franchise's brief history around by selecting three future Pro Football Hall of Famers in defensive back Mel Renfro, wide receiver Bob Hayes, and quarterback Roger Staubach. However, this wasn't as simple as turning in names on a piece of paper.Vice President of Player Personnel Gil Brandt was hoping Renfro would fall to them at the 17th overall pick. When he did, Brandt made the rest of the league wait for six hours so he could send an orthopedic surgeon to the University of Oregon to examine Renfro's hand, which he had injured after punching a glass medicine cabinet upon hearing the news of President John F. Kennedy's assassination.Later, they gambled on Hayes in the seventh round, hoping they could turn the track star into a true football player, and then with Brandt away from the draft table, the time came for the Cowboys to pick again in the 10th round. Figuring there was no need to wait for Brandt to return, team President Tex Schramm chose the only name he recognized on the club's list of prospects: Staubach.Ever wondered why the football slipped through the hands of Tony Romo in the 2006 playoffs against Seattle? Or which Cowboys player caught only one pass in his career a touchdown in the Super Bowl? Or what happened in Deion Sanders first practice with the team? The answers await.From the heartfelt and stirring foreword by Hall of Famer and NFL career rushing leader Emmitt Smith to the crowning of the greatest Cowboys player of them all, there has never been such an in-depth compilation of this franchise like Six Decades of Dallas Cowboys Football. Simply put, this is a must-read, must-see, must-have in the bookcase or on the coffee table for all passionate Cowboys fans.
