Is Dallas still "America's Team"? I am not quite sure. If they are, say why. If they aren't who is, and why? Thanks.

The whole "America's Team" nonsense was started by the media. They chose Dallas for football and the Braves for baseball. I don't think there ever were teams "selected" in the NBA or the NHL. Everyone thinks the Cowboys themselves started that, but that just isn't true. I think some of it had to do with Tex Schramm and Tom Landry. They were considered "gentlemen" in a game of brutality.Last edited by hugelynchfan; 07-12-2004, 09:21 PM.

Seems to me that the Patriots would be more fitting as the new "Americas team".
Stars and stripes....patriot....no outstanding individuals...just overall great "team".James Tiberius Kirk: "Spock, the women on your planet are logical. No other planet in the galaxy can make that claim."

However, the New England Patriots fail to carry around that intangilbe quality that other teams like the Packers or Steelers enjoy. You know, that karma, I'm not sure of the word I'm looking for but I think you know what I mean.

one reason i think cowboys are americas team is cuz the good ole folks root for them. In oklahoma, nebraska, kansas, most of the middle of the country, they all root for dallas cuz theyre the only team there is.Superintendent Chalmers: "Thank the Lord"? That sounded like a prayer. A prayer in a public school. God has no place within these walls, just like facts don't have a place within an organized religion."
