Remember this the next time you criticize Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo for playing too much golf. He could be singing.

But is Romo the worst of the bunch? Dirk Nowitzki's pretty bad. Jerry Jones is in leather. It's all entertainingly horrible.

This Who's Who of Metroplex star power karaokeed to Faith Hill's "This Kiss" for her Super Bowl XLV kick-off concert last week at Fort Worth's Bass Hall.

Watch the video. Laugh until you cry.

Then jump for the roll call and see if you nailed it.

God, after all, decreed Texas Stadium have a hole in its roof so he could look down upon his favorite team. Right?

From the old wooden Fair Park Bowl through the Cotton Bowl, Texas Stadium and now the $1 billion Cowboys Stadium, North Texas' culture is shaped in 100-yard memories. From high-school stars to Hall of Fame icons, our heroes have always been Cowboys ... and Mustangs ... and Horned Frogs ... and Scots ... and Longhorns ... and ...

With Super Bowl XLV's imminent arrival in North Texas, the Host Committee decided it was the perfect time to sift through our 100-plus years of football and identify the 100 greatest moments. Daunting, to say the least. The Super Bowl XLV Century Club Action Committee, chaired by long-time Dallas Cowboys' radio voice Brad Sham and consisting of esteemed North Texas media representatives, met in May and July and again in September and narrowed the search from 400 to 250 worthy candidate moments.

The program - Century in the Making - kicks off today at 2 p.m. at Woodrow Wilson High School with an event featuring Mean Joe Greene, Billy Sims, Tim Brown, Troy Aikman and Roger Staubach and Michael Irvin.

Surmised Dallas Morning News pro football beat writer Rick Gosselin, "This project is bigger than the Super Bowl itself."

Now, via online voting, we need your help in selecting the best football memories from America's best football region. (I say "we", because I am honored to be the author of the vignettes of the 250 candidates.)

To me, it's Dec. 16, 1979. Down 34-21 with less than three minutes remaining, Roger Staubach throws two touchdown passes to rally the Dallas Cowboys to a 35-34 victory over the hated Washington Redskins at a frenetic Texas Stadium.

I was 15. I've never jumped higher in my life.

What is it for you? Your favorite all-time North Texas football memory, that is.

Some of my other favorites ...

But, after yesterday's grand gala in Arlington, here's the roster of Super Bowl XLV's other coming attractions:

NFL Headquarters: Hilton Anatole Hotel

NFC Team Hotel: Omni Mandalay, Las Colinas

AFC Team Hotel: Omni Fort Worth

AFC Team Practices: TCU

NFC Team Practices: Valley Ranch

Apparently these guys are tweetin' back and forth. Who knew?

Twiddling - or I should say Tweeddling - my thumbs until the 6 p.m. release of the NFL schedule and the unveiling of the Dallas Cowboys' path to 9-7, I stumbled upon a couple of things.

1. This year's NFL Draft is extraordinarily weak. (More on that later.)

2. The North Texas Super Bowl XLV Host Committee is surprisingly hip. (More on that now, after the jump.)

Ticket emcee Craig Miller was right. Cropped him right out.

Enjoyed lunch today rubbing elbows with Pro Football Hall of Famers and pretending to be all casual and comfortable at the well-to-do Fort Worth Club. Reason?

Don't know if you've heard, but Super Bowl XLV is coming to North Texas. According to the countown clock I was given, in fact, it arrives in 709 days, 20 days and 30 minutes.

I sat at a table across from Roger Staubach, just down from Fort Worth Mayor Mike Moncrief and right next to The Ticket's Craig Miller.

What'd I learn?

To the victor go the spoils. Right, Hines?

Steelers 27, Cardinals 23: Best Super Bowl ever?

Santonio Holmes' tip-toe TD: Best Super Bowl catch ever?

The Boss: Best Super Bowl halftime show ever?

Better late than never, I've got XLIII thoughts about Super Bowl 43:

43. Gotta make it snappy. My free Grand Slam at Denny's is calling.

42. If you watched the Australian Open final, you saw Roger Federer break down into tears after losing to Rafael Nadal. Which begs the question, "After a loss, you want a guy (Federer) who cries or a guy (Tony Romo) who shrugs?"

41. My favorite Super Bowl: XII.

40. I think Troy Polamalu's hair is ridiclous. What's that? Yes, I assume it could be jealousy.

39. Two years from today I'll be blogging about my memories of the just-completed Super Bowl XLV played in Arlington's Jonestown Coliseum.

38. Though Dreamgirls was likely the most annoying movie I've ever seen heard, no denying that Jennifer Hudson can sing. Wow.

37. Wonder who North Texas will trot out for its musical entertainment come XLV?

36. My guess is Carrie Underwood for the national anthem.

35. Willie Nelson at halftime.

34. With Petty Theft for pre-game out in the parking lot. And Jessica Simpson serving beer. On roller skates.

33. Worst commercial was the one where the guy throws a crystal ball into another guy's crotch. Really? That's funny? Let's see him hurl one into a woman's ovaries. Now that would be a knee-slapper. No? Why not?

32. We had ads about stupid horses, talking babies, yadda, yadda and more yadda. But give me Danica Patrick in the shower any day. Or GoDaddy.com and its array of cleavage. I'm simple. Sue me.

31. I can get Kelvin Martin's Super Bowl "trophy". What?

30. It was a fumble, but why didn't we review the last play involving Kurt Warner. I really didn't have a rooting interest, but I was intrigued by a final-play Hail Mary to a leaping Larry Fitzgerald in the end zone. You?

29. Speaking of Fitzgerald, I think Terrell Owens still thinks he can do those things.

28. He can't.

27. Love or loathe the Steelers, you gotta admit the Terrible Towel is cool.

26. I know they put on a good show and damn near won the game, but isn't having the Cardinals in the Super Bowl like having the Tampa Bay Rays in the World Series or the Clippers in the NBA Finals?

25. Were Cowboys' fans wearing black armbands of mourning Sunday? Or has last season's haplessness already melted into this season's hope?

24. In the amazingly uncreative/copycat NFL, the Steelers direct-snapped the ball to running back Willie Parker. Betcha a nickel the Cowboys design a couple similar plays for Felix Jones next season.

23. I hate Terry Bradshaw. Yes, still.

22. I've forgiven Jackie Smith. But I'll never be able to forget.

21. Ratings for the game here in Dallas were 44.3, ranking only 26th-highest in the country. Proving yet again that we're not a sports town, we're a winners town.

20. As for halftime shows, give me Prince. Every year.

With Bill Lively and Roger Staubach in charge, we -- er, Arlington -- are going to put on quite a show.

Some of us are old enough to remember when the Dallas Cowboys had a band. If you’re in that group, take pride and confidence today that Bill Lively has been named President and CEO of the North Texas Super Bowl XLV Host Committee.

Lively, who on Jan. 1 will officially begin reporting to Host Committee chairman Roger Staubach, has deep Dallas roots. He spent 25 years on the faculty and administration at SMU, and for the last eight years has been Prez/CEO of the Dallas Center for the Performing Arts.

But if you’re a sports dork and his name rings sorta of a “Where do I know that name from?” bell, you must have attended a Cowboys game at the Cotton Bowl or in the early years at Texas Stadium.

Yeah, but can she make up for miles and miles of ugly?

So I’m driving to visit my cousin in a Fort Worth hospital yesterday morning when all the sudden it hits me:

Hang your head in shame, Tom Landry. Hang your head.

Because, don’t look now – no, really, don’t look – Interstate 30 headed west out of Dallas to Arlington (better known as Tom Landry Highway) is suddenly the country’s ugliest stretch of freeway. If you haven’t driven it in a while, here’s the Cliff’s Notes:

We got a logo! Can February 6, 2011, be that far off?

At the North Texas Super Bowl XLV Host Committee’s initial press conference today out at the Cowboys new stadium, all sorts of dignitaries -- Troy Aikman, Ross Perot Jr, Tom Leppert, Terdema Ussery -- pledged their support and oohed and aahed at the shiny, Star Trek-y artwork.

North Texas Super Bowl XLV Host Committee Chair Roger Staubach promised, “North Texas will present the most exciting and comprehensive Super Bowl experience in history.”

And who are we to doubt him? Despite the fact that this woman somehow found her way onto the committee. -- Richie Whitt
