Some Basic Information About The Dallas Cowboys

The Dallas Cowboys are a professional National Football League team that is based out of Texas. They are members of the Eastern Division within the NFL and joined in the late sixties as an expansion team. The franchise plays their home games at their new Cowboy Stadium in Arlington and conducts their summer training camps San Antonio and Oxnard, California.

The team was a late gift to the city of Dallas, who had petitioned for an NFL team several years before. Originally, they were called the Rangers but the name was eventually changed so as to avoid confusion with the city's popular baseball team of the same name. The franchise had a pretty rocky start but after acquiring Don Meredith in 1960, they began to be a major contender in the league. Along with the help of their now legendary coach, Tom Landry, the team went on to have a winning record that season and sent five of its players to the Pro Bowl.

Throughout the sixties and seventies, the team was known as one of the best teams in the National Football League but had a reputation of choking when it came to important post season matches. A common season ender for them was losing to the Cleveland Browns.

The Cowboys' logo is one of the most popular and recognizable logos in the entire NFL as well. The royal blue star which is featured on the player's helmets is often used for other Dallas sports teams and has essentially been adopted by the entire state as well.

Since their creation, the team has been to thirty playoffs, won ten conference championships, twenty one division championships, and won the coveted Super Bowl a whopping six times. The team is also tied with the Pittsburgh Steelers with the most Super Bowl MVPs.
