"You are not from Dallas. Why do you like the Dallas Cowboys?""Because I am an American and they are America's Team."As an infant, I remember there was a knight who lead his team to battle with a star on each side of his silver helmet. My father has told me, on more than one occasion, that the best way to keep me quiet for three hours as a toddler was to plop me down in front of the TV to watch Roger Staubach, the Doomsday Defense and the rest of America's Team.To this day, the best way to keep me quiet for three hours as an adult is to put me in front of the TV while those wearing the same silver helmets play football.Who am I outside of a Cowboys fan? I am a renaissance man - a graduate of the US Merchant Marine Academy, a former US Navy and US Coast Guard helicopter pilot, licensed merchant marine officer, sailor, freelance writer, editor, and photographic artist with an MFA in photography from the Academy of Art University.-Todd Vorenkamp
