Dallas Cowboys final appearence on ABC's Monday Night Football

Thanks to 0812 posted from a sport forum:

This will be the final appearence for Dallas on ABC's Monday Night Football since ESPN takes it over next year. The Cowboys have 38 wins on Monday night, 2nd only to Miami's 39. So a win tonight would tie Dallas for best all-time on MNF with the Dolphins. Dallas is 3rd or 4th in appearences on MNF. I have a lot of great memories form Cowboy games on MNF but the one that sticks out the most didn't involve the players on the field. It was when Dallas played the Rams in Aneheim back in 1986 and someone phoned in a death threat for Tom Landry. Landry refused to stay in the locker room however and wore a bullet proof vest on the sidelines the entire 2nd half.
