The HONOLULU ADVERTISER has a trivia question in the sports section
every day. The following is from the November 14 paper.
Question: How did the phrase "America's Team," which refers to the
Dallas Cowboys, originate?
Answer: It came from the Dallas Cowboys 1979 highlight reel when NFL
Films executive Bob Ryan and
then Cowboys public relations director Doug Todd were
trying to come up with a moniker. They
rejected "U.S. Cowboys," "Champions Die Hard," and
"Cowboys a National Team."
