Clint Longley: The Rise and Fall of the Mad Bomber

Clint Longley.  Does the name ring a bell? It may not if you’re under the age of 30. Because if you’re under 30, you never saw Longley play for the Cowboys, although you may have heard about him. Clint’s career with the Cowboys was brief, but not without heroics, not without drama, and certainly earns him a place as one of the most fascinating players in Cowboy history. Clint Longley came to the Cowboys in 1974 as a [...]

Later that year he actually was drafted by me in my fantasy football draft and [...]
