They are printed in Steve Forbes' magazine. Remember Steve? The googly eyes? Wrap-around smile? Ran for president on the Billionaire Inheritance Party. (Like today's Koch brothers, but more up front about it.) Why do I associate him with cardigan sweaters? Yep, that guy. Steve.His magazine supposedly claims the Dallas Cowboys are more valuable than the Yankees. Yep, that guy. We all certainly respect Dallas, with its 27 world championships and incredible legacy of - oh, let's see - Bob Lilly, Tom Landry, and that wiseass linebacker, Hollywood Whazzizname. Household names. Yep, Mickey and Yogi got nothing on them. And Dallas has the cheerleaders, and JFK, and the drought/wild fires, and George W. and JR Ewing and -- wait, I almost forgot -- Tony Romo and the former Jessica Simpson, pre-and-post meatwagon diet. Plus, they call themselves "America's Team," like the Atlanta Braves. (Note: We should start calling ourselves "America's Blog.)
And of course, who can forget all the Dallas Cowboys references in pop culture. Just this summer, Americans were drawn to the drive-ins to watch "Cowboys and Aliens," starring Emmet Smith as the cowboy and Jerry Jones as the monster from outer space.
Yep. That Steve Forbes. Coulda been president.
