A Dallas Cowboys original

There is no way to appreciate the present without knowledge of the past.  I was born in 1995, but I'm not a Cowboys fan just because of Tony Romo, Drew Bledsoe, and Troy Aikman.  I get chills when I think about Roger Staubach, Tom Landry, Jimmy Johnson, and Don Meredith.  Don Meredith, also known as Dandy, was the second starting QB for the Dallas Cowboys.  He played nine seasons in the NFL, after he attended Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas.  He was born in Mount Vernon, Texas and he is one of the few people who played their entire football career in one place.  If you ask me, if you're going to do that, there's no better place than Dallas.  Not only did America love him on the field, but they loved him commenting about the games as well.  He was a commentator on ABC's Monday Night Football.  He was always known for singing "The Party's Over" at the end of a game.  His final broadcast was ABC's first Super Bowl.  He passed away on December 5, 2010 and will always be remembered as a true Dallas Cowboy original.
