DALLAS (105.3 The Fan) - Happy anniversary, Cowboys fans. On this day 25 years ago, you won the Super Bowl.
That fact likely won't bring you very much joy when you remember that America's Team hasn't made it back to the Super Bowl since beating the Pittsburgh Steelers 27-17 on Jan. 28, 1996, to capture their fifth Lombardi Trophy in franchise history.
If you were to ask Cowboys fans why they haven't made it back to a Super Bowl since then, they'll point the finger directly at Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.
For his part, Jones said on the K&C Masterpiece that he can and "will change" the way he runs the organization in the future.
Jones won't be removing himself from the general manager role, but it'll be interesting to see how he acts on those words. During that same interview, Jones also said he would do whatever it takes to win another Super Bowl.
“Do ya'll have any idea how much I’d write a check for if I knew for sure I could get that Lombardi Trophy? It is the foremost thing. Not money. I had money when I bought the Cowboys. ... There has never been but one thing, and that is win,” he said.
It's been 25 years, Jerry, and actions speak louder than words. It's time to get to work.
You can start by locking up a deal with your franchise quarterback.
