The Dallas Cowboys are flying high once again, and it’s clear in the economics of sports.
According to Forbes, America’s favorite team has overtaken Real Madrid ($3.26 billion) to become the most valuable franchise in all of pro sports.
The idea that Jones bought the team in February 1989 from H.R. “Bum” Bright for $140 million is just mind-boggling.
That’s a 1,382 percent jump based on Forbes’ new valuation.
The five most valuable NFL teams are the New England Patriots ($3.2 billion), Washington Redskins ($2.85 billion), New York Giants ($2.8 billion) and San Francisco 49ers ($2.7 billion).
