About "Then Landry Said To Staubach. . .": The Best

Product Description Written for every sports fan who follows the Cowboys, this account goes behind the scenes to peek into the private world of the players, coaches, and decision makers—all while eavesdropping on their personal conversations. From the Dallas locker room to the sidelines and inside the huddle, the book includes stories from Aikman, Irvin, Meredith, Smith, and Staubach, among others, allowing readers to relive the highlights and the celebrations. From the Publisher "To me, Tom Landry is the greatest coach in the history of the game." --Roger Staubach "Roger Staubach was the epitome of what Landry thought a quarterback should be. He was the most dedicated guy you'll ever be around. If somebody did a hundred sit-ups, Roger was going to do a hundred and one. --Walt Garrison "You couldn't kick dirt up. You couldn't move it. Your cleats couldn't sink into anything. It was like walking in a pair of cleats on concrete." --Cornell Green, on the Ice Bowl "You could make more money investing in government bonds, but football is more fun." --Clint Murchison Jr. From the Inside Flap When Clint Murchison Jr. purchased an NFL expansion team in 1960 for the then-whopping sum of $600,000, he never could have imagined that his Dallas Cowboys would one day become one of the most famous and celebrated franchises in all of sports. Known around the world as "America's Team," Dallas legends like Tom Landry, Roger Staubach, Tex Schramm, Troy Aikman, and Emmitt Smith have become synonymous with football excellence. "Then Landry Said to Staubach..." chronicles more than four decades of the greatest Cowboys stories ever told, from the team's early beginnings as the Dallas Rangers to the 2006 battle of wills between coach Bill Parcells and temperamental wide receiver Terrell Owens.
