    Default DMN: On biggest day in recent memory, Cowboys' team website vanishes

    By VICTOR GODINEZ / The Dallas Morning News


    As the team was melting down Sunday, so was the Dallas Cowboys' website.

    The club apparently forgot to renew its registration on the dallascowboys.com domain and the site was pulled Sunday night, replaced with a generic page indicating the address was available for purchase from Network Solutions LLC.

    The team quickly renewed its registration, but it takes up to 48 hours for all Internet servers to recognize renewals.

    As a result, many fans visiting the site Monday eager for news about the Cowboys' flop in Green Bay and the status of head coach Wade Phillips were greeted with a stock image of two kids playing soccer.

    In the publicly available database on WhoIs.com, the domain's registrant is listed as Dallas Cowboys Football Club Ltd., but the specific e-mail address administrative contact is for Jerry Jones Jr., son of owner Jerry Jones and executive vice president and chief sales and marketing officer for the team.

    A message to that e-mail address and a phone call to Jones Jr. were not returned.

    Dallascowboys.com is the second-most-popular NFL website, according to research firm ComScore, behind only the main NFL.com portal.

    I'd have loved to had that domain...

    What a sorry outfit that franchise is.

    We could have had a "Hail to the Redskins" situation all over again. I wish I knew, I would have bought it in a heartbeat.

    Good one.
    “I just wanted to say to the fans … in D.C. and across the nation, they’ve been great for us, cheering us on. At away games they show up in the masses and at home they really made it feel like a home-field advantage. We said this when I was in college, ‘We got a chance to sit at the dinner table and experience success and it was a good meal. But now we want to go back to get dessert.’ We’ll be ready to get dessert next year.”

    Robert Griffin’s last words at the press conference.
