The Dallas Cowboys. The term originated in a highlight film in 1978 about the football team. Many other teams have tried to steal the nickname but failed because apparently they're unable to come up with anything original themselves. It's like trying to call Saint Paul, Minnesota Hockeytown - it's just not right; Detroit coined the term, thus it's theirs.
They appear on television so often that their faces are as familiar to the public as presidents and movie stars. They are the Dallas Cowboys, "America's Team."
-Bob Ryan, 1978
I love that on Thanksgiving day I can turn the TV on and always see America's Team playing.
It's been a while since America's Team won a Superbowl, hopefully Romo won't choke again this year.

Get the America's Teammug. Not the Dallas Cowboys, but the Green Bay Packers as many people believe. First off, the Packers are not owned by a single person, but the city of Green Bay and the stockholders. They are the only professional team to have this financial setup. The Cowboys, however, are owned by a redneck retard. Secondly, the Packers have 12 NFL championships, three of which were Super Bowls (I, II, and XXXI). Also, the Packers have won three consecutive championships not once, but twice, once with Lambeau and once with Lombardi. The reason that the Packers aren't recognized for these feats are because many people, including the sports writers on ESPN, don't recognize the NFL championships won before the Super Bowl era. The Dallas Cowboys, however, have only won 5 NFL championships. Lastly, the Packers have been in existence since 1919, joining the NFL in 1921, and the Cowboys have only been in existence since 1960. So in conclusion, the Packers are the real America's Team because they represent humble beginnings, small town America, small town success, the caring support of a community, perseverance, the team owned and for the people, and the American Dream. The Cowboys, on the other hand, represent corporate America as a whole.

Get the America's Teammug. Verb: The act of giving someone a facial in self defense. Using your partners face as Captain Americas shield to protect yourself from your own shots.
Sarah came over the other night, things got out of control and I ended up having to Captain America her.

Get the Captain Americamug. A very misunderstood organization that instills morales and values into the male youth of America. It is often look down upon as uncool and homosexual due to things such as merit badges and week long all boy scout camps. In the long run, colleges and business think very highly of Eagle Scouts.
Tom: Hey Johnny, what did you do at scout camp, make lanyards and baskets?
Johnny: No, I spent the night in the mountains with my troop.
Tom: HA! You slept in the mountains with a bunch of guys? What a fag!
Johnny: Dude, I'll be the one laughing when I'm the CEO of a company and you're working at McDonalds.
*10 years later Johnny drives his Mercedes through a McDonald's drive through*
Johnny: Oh hi Tom! So you work at a McDonalds?
Tom: Yea....HEY am I still able to join the Boyscouts of America?
Johnny: No sorry! You have to be 18 or younger to earn Eagle!
Tom: Aw dam. I guess I'll join the coastguard then!
Johnny: No, I spent the night in the mountains with my troop.
Tom: HA! You slept in the mountains with a bunch of guys? What a fag!
Johnny: Dude, I'll be the one laughing when I'm the CEO of a company and you're working at McDonalds.

Get the Boyscouts of Americamug. The biggest Mall in the United States. You think it's big, but then you go and you're like "THIS is what I've been dying to see???" Being a native Minnesotan I never had to go through the dissapointment of seeing the mall for the first time. It's only big because there is an amusement park in the middle and an aquarium in the basement and nightclubs and a theater on the 4th floor.
Chick from Utah: "I'm so excited to go to the Mall of America!"
Chick from Minnesota: "It's nice and all, but don't get your hopes up kid."
*after they arrive*
Chick from Utah: "Fuck this!"
Chick from MN: "Told ya so"
Chick from Minnesota: "It's nice and all, but don't get your hopes up kid."
