                                 ______


                       HON. EDDIE BERNICE JOHNSON

                                of texas

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, January 30 1996

  Ms. EDDIE BERNICE JOHNSON of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I rise to salute the 
accomplishments of the Dallas Cowboys, and to nominate them for the 
unofficial title of ``Team of the 90's.'' Although faced with 
considerable

adversity during the long season, the Cowboys stayed together as a team 
and accomplished their goal of capturing a third Super Bowl in four 
seasons.
  From Deion Sanders to Daryl Johnston, from Tony Tolbert to Nate 
Newton, the Cowboys achieved their goal through hard work and 
dedication to a single purpose. All across Texas, Cowboys fans salute 
the total team effort put forth on Super Bowl Sunday and throughout the 
season.
  Although the headliners like Troy, Emmitt, and Michael deservedly 
received the majority of the spotlight, special recognition 
appropriately went to Texas Christian University's own Larry Brown, the 
Super Bowl's Most Valuable Player. A 12th round draft pick, Brown has 
shown admirable determination to rise to the top of the National 
Football League. As a graduate of TCU, I was especially pleased with 
his selection as MVP.
  From all of your fans, Dallas Cowboys, thank you for a wonderful ride 
in Super Bowl XXX.
