Dallas Cowboys - Team History: The Dallas Cowboys are often referred to as "America's Team" and that still holds true for the most part. The franchise has a very successful The Cowboys first joined the league in 1960 and head coach Tom Landry became a staple on the sidelines with suit and hat. With past Hall of Fame players like Roger Staubach, Tony Dorsett, Mel Renfro, Randy White, and future bets like Troy Aikman, Michael Irvin, and Emmitt Smith the Cowboys seem to have been contenders for decades. Aikman led the team to 3 Super Bowl titles and eventually retired due to concussions. Emmitt Smith became the leading rusher of all-time passing Walter Payton.
