Have the balls to use your real name and not hide behind an alias 2. 1 million visitors a day is pushing it. The point is how much traffic DallasCowboys.com has. The point is Cowboys.com (to many) is about the sports team. Most teams have their name as a domain - Dallas is one of the few that don't. 3. You protect your brand. Cowboys.com going to some other site dilutes it. We aren't talking about an insignificant typo - 2000+ visitors a day is nothing to sneeze at. Sigh.

I think not. They're lucky if they see 1/10th of that. Talk about a drop in the bucket, $250,000 is a drop in the bucket to an organization like that.
