  • Summary

  • In this episode of the Cowboys Corner Podcast, Ryan establishes the backdrop to the Dallas Cowboys’ incredible 1975 season by re-hashing the dramas and the discord from the previous year, when the World Football League and a toxic players strike poisoned the locker room, and brought the Cowboys – a perennial Super Bowl contender – down to the levels of mediocrity.  Politics, racism, feuds, and an abnormal amount of gut-punch defeats that knocked the Cowboys out of the playoff race are all jam-packed into this in-depth episode.
