since January 1971, there have been 23 Super Bowl games to crown the champion of professional football. The Dallas Cowboys have played in 7 of those 23 games--more than any other NFL team. Sunday, the Cowboys won their fourth Super Bowl--tying them with San Francisco and Pittsburgh for the most Super Bowl victories. No Cowboy victory was ever sweeter than this 30-13 triumph over the Buffalo Bills. As coach Jimmy Johnson remarked following the game, this has been a difficult year for the Cowboys. They started off losing their first two games while their star running back Emmitt Smith was in contract negotiations and not on the field. They endured key injuries to key players like quarterback Troy Aikman, center Mark Stepnoski, defensive end Charles Haley, defensive tackle Russell Maryland, and Emmitt Smith. But they kept coming back from adversity. Sunday, they trailed 13-6 at halftime. However, there is no quit in this team. The Cowboys outscored the Bills 24-0 in the second half and won this game going away. Emmitt Smith was brilliant, running for two touchdowns and defensive back James Washington provided the spark on the other side of the line--causing one fumble, returning another fumble for a touchdown, and intercepting a pass. Buffalo played valiantly, but they were no match for the boys in blue. The Cowboys have won two Super Bowls in a row. I say, ``Let's go for the three-peat.''
