"The Dallas Cowboys are a professional American football team based in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex. The Cowboys compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member of the National Football Conference (NFC) East division.

"The team is headquartered in Frisco, Texas, and has played its home games at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, since its opening in 2009. The stadium took its current name prior to the 2013 season, following the team's decision to sell the stadium's naming rights to telecommunications company AT&T.

"In January 2020, Mike McCarthy was hired as head coach of the Cowboys.[8] He is the ninth in the team's history.[9] McCarthy follows Jason Garrett, who coached the team from 2010 to 2019." (Wikipedia)

"The team's national following might best be represented by its NFL record of consecutive sell-outs. The Cowboys' streak of 190 consecutive sold-out regular and post-season games (home and away) began in 2002. (Wikipedia)

"The franchise has made it to the Super Bowl eight times, tying it with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Denver Broncos, and San Francisco 49ers for second-most Super Bowl appearances in history behind the New England Patriots' record 11 appearances.

"Their eight NFC championships are tied for most in the conference's history. The Cowboys are the only NFL team to record 20 straight winning seasons (from 1966 to 1985) during which they missed the playoffs only twice (1974 and 1984)."

"In 2015, the Dallas Cowboys became the first sports team to be valued at $4 billion, making it the most valuable sports team in the world, according to Forbes.

"The Cowboys also generated $620 million in revenue in 2014, a record for a U.S. sports team. In 2018, they also became the first NFL franchise to be valued at $5 billion and making Forbes' list as the most valued NFL team for the 12th straight year." (Wikipedia)

"The world's most valuable sports teams, as ranked annually by the American magazine Forbes, include teams from association football, American football, baseball, and basketball.

"In 2016, the National Football League (NFL)'s Dallas Cowboys simultaneously became both the first team to surpass $4 billion in value and the first non–association football team to top the ranking since its inception in 2010.

"Manchester United (2010–12) and Real Madrid (2013–15) have previously each been named the most valuable team three times. The current ranking came out on September 8, 2023." (Wikipedia)

"Despite the global popularity of soccer, rugby, and cricket, among many others, U.S. American sports teams dominate the rankings of the world's most valuable sports teams in 2023," the Statista says.

"The NFL franchise the Dallas Cowboys were the most valuable sports team worldwide in 2023, with an estimated value of nine billion U.S. dollars.

"Alongside exhibiting the highest total attendance for its eight regular-season home games, the Dallas Cowboys are the highest-grossing franchise in the NFL, with over 1.1 billion U.S. dollars in revenue in 2022. The total revenue of all 32 NFL teams increased from about four billion U.S. dollars in 2001 to over 18 billion U.S. dollars in 2022, the highest figure to date."

"The Dallas Cowboys are in the money. The Texas squad ranks as the most valuable sports franchise in the world, according to sports business website Sportico's NFL valuations," the ESPN says.

"Dallas tops the scale at $9.2 billion, putting the Cowboys more than $1.5 billion ahead of the next most valuable team (the Golden State Warriors, at $7.56 billion).

"The average NFL franchise was worth $5.14 billion as of last season, and no wonder: With $12 billion of the league's $17.8 billion in national media and advertising revenue shared among all teams, each of them got about $375 million just for showing up. In 2023, that number will be nearly $400 million."

"The Dallas Cowboys have become the first professional sports team with a value of over $10 billion on Sportico, which released its 2024 NFL team valuations," the FOX Sports says.

"The Cowboys were valued at $10.32 billion, a stunning jump of over $1 billion from the $9.2 billion mark in February, which Sportico valued the team at when choosing the most valuable franchises across all major sports.

"No other NFL team even reaches $8 billion on Sportico's list. The next highest-valued team is the Los Angeles Rams at $7.79 billion, edging out the New York Giants at $7.65 billion for second place."

"The Dallas Cowboys were a dying brand when Jerry Jones paid $150 million for the NFL team and the operating rights to its stadium in 1989," the Forbes Africa says.

"Three Super Bowls—1992, 1993, 1995—a new stadium, a ton of publicity over the course of 35 years and the largest fan base in the NFL has the Cowboys valued at $9 billion and the name of the team alone worth $1.73 billion—the most in team sports.

"It’s been a long time since the Cowboys played for the Lombardi Trophy, but Jones created the template for branding in sports."

"When Jerry Jones plunked down $150 million to buy the Dallas Cowboys in 1989, the team was losing $1 million a month, according to Jones," the CNBC says.

"Thirty-five years later, the Cowboys are worth a staggering $11 billion, $3 billion more than any other team in the National Football League, according to CNBC’s Official 2024 NFL Team Valuations unveiled Thursday.

"The Cowboys generated $1.2 billion in revenue in 2023, nearly $400 million more than the Los Angeles Rams, who were second in the league in revenue, according to CNBC’s rankings. The Cowboys are the most profitable in the NFL, posting EBITDA of $550 million last season, $300 million more than the New England Patriots, the second-most profitable NFL team, according to CNBC’s list."

"The Dallas Cowboys have become the first professional sports team to be valued at over $10 billion, according to Sportico’s 2024 NFL rankings that were released on Tuesday," the CNN reports.

"The Cowboys, owned by Jerry Jones, were valued at $10.32 billion, far and away the most valuable franchise in the league and an increase of over a billion dollars on the previous estimate of $9.2 billion in February."
