Synopsis

“A wry, witty look at life with the Dallas Cowboys during the heyday of Tom Landry and Roger Staubach, The Crunch shows the real life that makes legends and lacerates the Cowboys mechanistic corporate image, revealing a world that is both more and less than we expect, yet funnier than we could image.” —Peter Gent, author of North Dallas Forty
 
“More characters than War and Peace. More laughs than Laugh-In. . . . A pro football classic!” —Frank Luksa, The Dallas Morning News
