8. No man left behind

Find a Dallas Cowboys community near you. We are everywhere. Everywhere. Across the nation; across the pond. There are so many Cowboys fans it’s hilarious.

2017 is the year we band together. With social media and other meet up resources, there’s no reason why we can’t get together for some nachos and beer to root for America’s Team.

If anything, get together to make fun of those ugly Burgundy and Gold colors. Ugly.

9. Taco Tuesdays

Should Taco Charlton get a sack or two on Sundays, I solemnly swear, that I, a fan of the greatest team in the world and beyond, will down a taco or two on the spot.

Mixing sauces are welcome and encouraged. Allowing a Giants fan to videotape should be welcomed and encouraged.

Taco sauces, seasonings and any other toppings is decided upon the user. Soft shells are okay. Hard shells are better due to its noisy crunch, which may annoy Giants fans more.

Please consult your doctor prior to taco consumption and Giants hating. Crunch. Crunch.

10. L.P. Ladouceur

In my pledge to leave no man behind, I shall no longer leave L.P. Ladouceur behind. Even if he’s Canadian. Or the long snapper. Or if I can’t pronounce his name. No seriously, can you?

Ok then…

The long snapper has played in 189 games for the Dallas Cowboys. He turned 36 last March. According to his wiki page, he is not related to David LaFleur. No relation. In case you’re wondering. Just two separate dudes we forgot about.

Mr. Ladouceur, we thank you for service. Congrats on your 2014 Pro Bowl nod. Congrats on making a tackle or two. Snapping the ball is some serious business. I understand your job. A good day is when nobody notices your craft, because you accomplished your job without a hitch.

Well, I say no more! We will recognize every Dallas Cowboy. Especially long snappers. Even we can’t pronounce their name. Or if they’re Canadian.
