Dallas Cowboys fans have been hit with bad news over the past few weeks, dampening what was mostly an optimistic view on the offseason. But one thing remains the same, and that is the Cowboys are the most popular NFL franchise around. The loyalty and size of the fanbase has been shown over and over. One measure was Forbe's recent ranking of the Cowboys as the most valuable sports franchise in the world.
NFL franchises make up 27 of the 50 most valuable sports teams in the world, including the Dallas Cowboys, who rank first with a value of $4 billion, up 25%.
