Dallas Cowboys

Proclaiming itself "America's Team," this football franchise certainly has the loyalty of many Texans. Dallas Cowboys Football Club operates the famed Dallas Cowboys professional football franchise, one of the most popular teams in the National Football League and the winner of five Super Bowl titles (a mark it shares with the San Francisco 49ers). Dallas has been home to such Hall of Fame players as Troy Aikman, Michael Irvin, and Roger Staubach, as well as famed head coach Tom Landry. The team was founded in 1960 by Clint Murchison Jr. and Bedford Wynne. Oilman Jerry Jones has owned the team since 1989.
