Dallas Cowboys Forget To Renew Domain

[GolfSpy_X]

As the team was melting down Sunday, so was the Dallas Cowboys' website.

 

The club apparently forgot to renew its registration on the dallascowboys.com domain and the site was pulled Sunday night, replaced with a generic page indicating the address was available for purchase from Network Solutions LLC.

 

The team quickly renewed its registration, but it takes up to 48 hours for all Internet servers to recognize renewals.

 

As a result, many fans visiting the site Monday eager for news about the Cowboys' flop in Green Bay and the status of head coach Wade Phillips were greeted with a stock image of two kids playing soccer.

 

In the publicly available database on WhoIs.com, the domain's registrant is listed as Dallas Cowboys Football Club Ltd., but the specific e-mail address administrative contact is for Jerry Jones Jr., son of owner Jerry Jones and executive vice president and chief sales and marketing officer for the team.

 

A message to that e-mail address and a phone call to Jones Jr. were not returned.

 

Dallascowboys.com is the second-most-popular NFL website, according to research firm ComScore, behind only the main NFL.com portal.
