THE HISTORY OF THE DALLAS COWBOYS | AMERICA’S TEAM
In early 1960 Clint Murchison, Jr., and Bedford Wynne were awarded an expansion franchise in to the NFL and on September 24th the Cowboys hosted the Pittsburgh Steelers at the Cotton Bowl in their first official game. The Cowboys were winless in their inaugural season with a record of 0-11-1. The next season the Cowboys won their first ever game defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers 27-24. In 1966 President and GM Tex Schramm became heavily involved in the negotiations as the AFL and NFL agreed to a merger setting up a season ending Championship Game, later to be referred to as the Super Bowl. On October 24, 1971 the Cowboys played their first game in their state of the art stadium and defeated the New England Patriots 44-21. That year they returned to the Super Bowl for the second straight season and won their first championship defeating the Dolphins 24-3.

Lets make a Deal - Pilot in 1963 - This 37 minute pilot, produced on May 25, 1963 with Monty Hall led to the series becoming a regular scheduled program
“Let’s Make A Deal” hosted by Monte Hall debuted on NBC during the daytime last week. This show is one of the most innovative 30 minutes in television this year.
Would be contestants dress up in colorful outfits to get Monte’s attention. He’ll offer them $ 50.in cash on the spot if they can produce from their handbags such items as a hardboiled egg, a picture of their elementary school gym teacher, a hair curler, etc… Once they get paid off, they are offered the chance to trade for a box or maybe what is behind door # 1,2, or 3. They might win a living room set, a trip to Hawaii, a washer dryer, or maybe a lonely smelly goat. From rags to riches and sometimes back, this show is fun, a little bizarre, and full of laughs. Find time to watch it !
