[edit] Merge
Normally I don't support Merging but this definately needs to be merged with the Dallas Cowboys. Make it a section in Dallas Cowboys. Redwolf24 04:49, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
The Dallas Cowboys will always be America's Team. In case you don't think so, turn your TV on anywhere in the country in a city that does not have football and you can catch a Dallas game!
- I'd say that Dallas never was "America's Team". It's like Arby's slogan "Arby's roast beef is delicious". It's just a marketing ploy - Arby's slogan doesn't make their food any better, and Dallas's slogan doesn't make them "America's Team".--RLent 22:51, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Article is fine
The article is fine where it is located. It's informative, based on facts and non-biased. Although it looks as if it was a recent target of vandalism (since corrected).

[edit] Recent content removal
As the Cowboys' film and other sports-related information keeps being deleted, I thought I'd post here to try to clear up some of the confusion. If information on America's Team Properties LLC in Minneapolis Minnesota is notable and worthy for inclusion, it should be inserted in the other uses section as a new section. Removing content about the Dallas Cowboys is not appropriate. Also, if the company is notable per WP:CORP a link to a newly created article (perhaps entitled America's Team Properties) can be included in a "See also" section or in small font at the top of this article. hoopydinkConas tá tú? 02:04, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Incorrect, Bias Information
This is absolutely ridiculous that the Cowboys are listed as America's team - while it was a name that is given to the Cowboys, there is more than ONE "America's Team" - it is a term applied to the current "in vogue" team - it is a term applied to MANY teams by official persons from the team. At this current point, the Saints are currently called "America's Team" - not the Cowboys - it is a temporary term - perhaps next year it could be the Titans or Chiefs. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.237.109.194 (talk) 03:23, 20 January 2007 (UTC).
- Exactly, it is a temporary term used by many teams, except the Cowboys. For the Cowboys it has been a term used since 1979. It is recognized by all media outlets, often used by ESPN, CBS, Fox, Sports Illustrated, NFL Films, The NFL Network, etc. etc. When mentioning America's Team in any football circle, most everyone will recognize that you are speaking about the Cowboys, even if they are not a fan of the team. That is why it is not an "in vogue" term for them.
