Hall-of-Fame quarterback Roger Staubach says he’d love to get out on the field tomorrow, when the Cowboys face the Saints in Arlington. “It’s not the throwing, but the hitting that would be a concern,” Staubach says. “It would be fun to get out there on Thanksgiving Day. I’d play for a quarter–if they’d agree not to hit me.”
These days, No. 12 is spending a lot of time gearing up for Super Bowl XLV, which will be played Feb. 6, 2011, at Cowboys Stadium. As chairman of the host committee, Staubach was instrumental in bringing the big game to North Texas. And he already has his eye on a repeat performance.
“We want to get 50 back in Dallas,” says Staubach of Super Bowl L, to be played in 2016. “Troy (Aikman) is my vice chair on this one; I’m getting him ready to take over for the next Super Bowl.”
