Widely known as “America’s Team,” the Dallas Cowboys have lived up to their title by making multiple Super Bowl appearances since joining the NFL in 1960. With a team and coaching staff full of colorful personalities and unbelievable talent, as well as a devoted fan base, it’s no surprise that they hold the NFL record for consecutive home sell-outs.
For the last 15 years, Nick Eatman, featured columnist for the official Dallas Cowboys website, has followed the Cowboys and witnessed the franchise’s great and not-so-great moments. In If These Walls Could Talk: Stories from the Dallas Cowboys Sideline, Locker Room, and Press Box (Triumph Books, September 2014), Nick Eatman gives readers an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at one of the most celebrated football teams in the world. He includes events and facts every Cowboys fan should know and shares the stories you won’t hear anywhere else… like the weight room skirmish that was filmed by HBO’s Hard Knocks in 2002, or Antonio Bryant throwing a jersey at Bill Parcells’ face during a summer workout.
