Comments on: Proposal: Moron of The Year Award To The Dallas Cowboys http://www.conceptualist.com/2007/10/18/proposal-moron-of-the-year-award-to-the-dallas-cowboys/ Sat, 13 Mar 2010 01:14:10 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.3 By: Keith http://www.conceptualist.com/2007/10/18/proposal-moron-of-the-year-award-to-the-dallas-cowboys/#comment-3332 Keith Mon, 26 Nov 2007 19:56:09 +0000 http://www.conceptualist.com/2007/10/18/proposal-moron-of-the-year-award-to-the-dallas-cowboys/#comment-3332 While I agree they missed out on great deal, the main reason that Cowboys.com holds any value is because of the Dallas Cowboys. It's definitely not because of western wear. You say: "Forth, for the Dallas Cowboys this domain, because it gets massive type-in traffic partially because of their brand, should convert to tens of millions of dollars, without a single penny in advertising." "Partially?" You should change that to Mainly. This story really failed to bleed into mainstream media, or even capture much of the attention of the public, who mostly could care less and don't seem to really think about the longterm value of Cowboys.com. So, Moron of the Year may be a good moniker for domainers, but the Dallas Cowboys really slipped out with very little egg on their face.

It's already up, running and pointing right at their site. You really gotta give it those boys in Dallas.
