The Dallas Cowboys are a National Football League team based in Irving, Texas. The team is sometimes referred to colloquially as America's Team due its having a large number of fans who live outside its immediate local area (the term itself is derived from the title of the team's 1979 highlight film).
- Founded: 1960 (expansion NFL franchise)
- Home stadium: Texas Stadium, Irving, Texas (1971-)
- Head coach: Bill Parcells (2003-)
- Uniform colors: White jerseys - worn for virtually all home games and most away games - have royal blue numbers and lettering; colored jerseys feature a darker shade of blue as background (similar to that of the star logo shown to the upper right) with white numbers and lettering. Opposing teams sometimes intentionally wear their white jerseys when playing the Cowboys at home (when they do not do so normally) in order to force the Cowboys to use this latter jersey.
- Helmet design: Silver background with a blue star
- League championships won: 1971, 1977, 1992, 1993, 1995.
