How out dem Cowboys?
” In 1988, Jerry Jones bought the Cowboys and unceremoniously fired Tom Landry, the only coach the team had ever had. Jimmy Johnson has just won the national title with the University of Miami, and was brought in to coach the Cowboys. Their first season together, they went 1-15. But Jones and Johnson showed great patience in rebuilding the team through the draft, aiding by a bevy of picks acquired in the famous Herschel Walker Trade. With future hall of famers Aikman, Emmitt Smith, and Michael Irvin, and a slew of all-pro talent, the Cowboys quickly ascended back to the top of the league.
