"Bob Ryan, the Vice President and editor-in-chief of NFL Films, coined this for the Cowboys in 1979. After preparing and editing the team’s 1978 season highlight film he had to come up with a title for the film. [6]"
i like the steelers and the cowboys but not romo but regaurdless of that the cowboys are america's team hands down i dont care how many SUPERBOWLS STEELERS WIN the media, and they are supposed to be the most talented team in the entire league as they say but half there defense got released in the off season pac man to drunk to play but reguardless you cant take there name away that they have had forever no matter how many superbowls playoffs and wins they are and will forever be america's team b/c its not about the team with all the superbowls or wins its the cowboys and thats america's team

Please - there is no need for this "America's Team" bs....

Sure - right now the Steelers are "America's Team" - they just won the Super Bowl.

If the Steelers go 9-7 in 2009 and 6-10 in 2010, do you honestly believe that they will still be "America's Team"? No way....

It's just easy to be on the bandwagon when a team has been successful.
