GET A HINT JERRY! COWBOYS WEAR WHITE!

Oh lets face it-- there is trouble at the Star-- and the Star I am referring to, is the one on the side of the helmet and the one in Frisco!

Mr. Jones! SIR! Where is it written that the Dallas Cowboys wear their dark jerseys at home? Here's a hint-- IT DOESN'T!\

That's right-- the Team wears WHITE at home, and have been since in 1960...

WHY? you ask! Its simple!

When the team was first introduced to the NFL, the GM and President at the time, was Texas E. Schramm, who knew something about P.R. and marketing.

He thought that since this was an expansion team, that there would be no interest in the team, and that the fans would turn out to the Cotton Bowl to watch players such as Y.A. Title, of the Giants, or Jim Brown of the Browns, or maybe even Gayle Sayers of the Bears, and Paul Hornug of the Packers, just to think of a few- however they would be wearing THIER HOME jersey which is their primary color, while the Cowboys wore the "road" white... but there was more to this little escapade of Schramm's, yes there was the heat in Texas in September to deal with, so he would tell the players to where the white since the sun reflected the sunlight and heat off of them, and place it back on their opposition!

Ok so it didn't quite work out that way, since the Cowboys, that first season, went 0-11-1, with the tie being against the New York Giants.

Then teams started to get the idea behind the fact that the Cowboys NEVER wore their dark uniforms, at home or on the road, so teams such as the Redskins, Giants, Eagles, and Cardinals, started to wear white at their home game MAKING the Cowboys wear their Blue jerseys, and hence this whole JINX theory came about.

Take it a step further, the Cowboys lost the 1968 NFL Championship wearing blue-- oh wait a tick-- they lost the '66 and the '67 NFL Championships wearing WHITE!

They lost their FIRST Super Bowl appearance to the Baltimore Colts in 1970, in Super Bowl V, then they wore white in Super Bowl VI, but lost in X and XIII and won XII, alright enough with the Roman Numerals, figure it out!

They have not worn the dark jersey in the Super Bowl since they lost to the Colts, its not all in the jersey! I don't think., but the COWBOYS WEAR WHITE AT HOME!

Mr. Jones, if its about marketing, and such, then sell the Jersey in the Pro Shop, on line, or whatever but leave the team on the field alone!

This is not about the color of the jersey that they wear as a Jinx, its about Tradition, you don't see the New York Yankees changing their home uniform to look like hounds tooth, or the Red Sox wearing a different shade of red! What about the Crimson Tide-  or even the University of Texas-- they leave their Uniforms ALONE!

Its time to leave tradition alone! The Dallas Cowboys when at home wear WHITE, and they opposing team wear dark!

When they Cowboys are on the road, they will wear what the HOME team ask them to wear, and if it is the dark jersey, then so be it, learn to win in them, but leave Tradition ALONE!

If you wan the truth about why this team lost to the Minnesota Vikings on a Sunday night, at home, in prime time-- LOOK ON THE SIDELINE! The guy with the RED HAIR is the issue, you run the ball when you didn't have a running game all night, in a crucial moment and all of it fell around your ears and it is the cause of the failure-- and now you have to live with that!

Thats it in a nutshell!

Just a thought!
