Bill Bates • Professional Athelete Co-Host

Bates named the Cowboys three Super Bowl victories as the most memorable moments of his playing career. He was a part of championship teams in 1992, 1993, and 1995 as Dallas cemented its place as the team of the 90s. But one of his favorite memories involves the famed coif of his former coach. "There was that time when we defeated the Redskins in Washington, around the time when Jimmy Johnson first came to Dallas," Bates recalled. "At the end of the game I rubbed his head - not on purpose - which appeared to be sprayed down with hair spray and everyone was getting on him about it. For years after that, the clip where I rubbed his head was used as the opening to a sports show-fortunately that didn't end my career."
When Bates retired following the 1997 season, he tied the club record for service with 15 seasons in Dallas. He amassed 217 games played (2nd in team history), over 700 tackles and 14 interceptions.
