    The Dallas Cowboys were dubbed "America's Team" by NFL Films back in the 70's. The team ran with it after that..

    What about the ol' "Commitment to Excellence", certainly doesn't apply to The Raiders anymore...

    Marketing cliche and that's it. "America's team" is a stupid effin concept. If it were real, then it would stand up to all methods of measurement- merchandise, TV contracts, broadcast range, ticket sales, fan polling, # of championships etc.

    No such effin thing as an "America's team".

    Last time I checked, America has 32 teams.

    If the question is "What team has the most fans?" Then the answer is probably the Steelers. If the question is "What team has the most haters?" It's probably the Cowboys.

    On a side note, I live in Texas and have to deal with these Cowboys fans daily. No wonder I hate the team so much. Oilers/Titans for life.

    I hate them with a passion and 95% of their fans are morons, but it seems like there are Steelers fans everywhere.

    You could say the Bills were Americas team at one point. They did run the league for four straight years. Four straight Super Bowl appearances and zero wins, okay call them Canada's team, never mind.

    Only because of Katrina (and a few people have jumped on the bandwagon because they're the champs). But, Green Bay has alway had a following win or lose, across the North America.
