1975: My beloved Cowboys were taking in the hated Vikings in the playoffs. In the closing seconds Staubach throws up the ball and exclaims 'Hail Mary" and Drew Pearson "gets himself open" and catches it for a TD

I saw that game. I loved Staubach and the Cowboys when I was young. It’s not like on 4pm Sunday we had any other team to watch.

My first Bengal memory was when they beat the Cowboys in 1985 50-24. My family rooted for the Bengals, while I was rooting for Dallas. I was shamed that day in a big way.

My first feeling of being exiled from my family? See above.
