I was told the history of the Rivalry goes back to before Dallas had a Team and wanted to get into the NFL. This was in the late 1950's and the Redskins Owner Preston Marshal didn't want them in and was going to Vote no.

The Cowboys found that Corrine Griffith the wife of Redskins Owner Preston Marshall had not copyrighted the song that she wrote called.... HAIL TO THE REDSKINS. They quickly did and basicly blackmailed the Redskins into voting to allow them into the NFL which they did to get the rights to the song back.

BASTARD Cowbuckers!

I can't site my source on this. Sorry. Believe it or Not?

peace
