I thought the Dallas Cowboys were special. But the team stayed together. All teams stayed together back then. I can name you 40 guys that only played for Dallas, including Bob Lilly and Roger Staubach and Meredith. I could go on and on and on and on. We had very few other players that came from other teams.
