Are the cowboys really America's team?

I am just watching Sunday Night Football here, and I thought why am I watching this game when I don't really root for Dallas or Philadelpia. Then I realized that I am just watching because I am anti-Cowboys. They claim to be America's team. To all NFL fans out there, do you agree?

I don't think they are much anymore, people called them that because they were always on TV, but I think the Patriots are just as big a name, and even the Giants. I don't know that there's an America's team anymore.
It's not like the Yankees in baseball, or the Lakers in Basketball.

Yeah I agree that if they were America's team before, they are certainly not right now. But there is still a strong sentiment for anti-Cowboys, me included. If the only reason that they claim that is because they were always on TV, then SNF and MNF certainly helped other teams to be in the limelight too.
