Yesterday, the team unveiled their shiny new headquarters, and it was as breathtaking as expected. Thanks to many members of the media being brought inside for the first time, we all were welcomed inside The Star on Twitter.
Now, here on InsideTheStar.com, let’s take a look at the best tweets from inside The Star. Stars! ✭ ✭ ✭
Cowboys Honoring a Rich History
One of the best parts about the Cowboys’ new facility is that it encapsulates the team’s winning history, while serving as the active place for the 2016 team – and every team in the future – to focus on writing their own history.
Here is a look at some of the best historical tributes seen throughout The Star.

Of course, the Dallas Cowboys’ history wouldn’t be the same without five shiny Lombardi trophies, prominently making the trip from Valley Ranch to The Star.

A Modern Touch at The Star
While Cowboys’ players, coaches, employees, and media members will undoubtedly enjoy seeing these historic reminders placed throughout the building, they will also enjoy all of the state of the art technology that goes with a Jerry Jones’ funded project.

The Dallas Cowboys are America’s Team for a reason, and part of that reason is that they can justify using this living, breathing monument to the game of football itself – as written by them – as their home to work out and do everything else that 31 other teams do daily, but with far less style.
Dallas Cowboys Football – Coming Together for 2016
That said, with the Dallas Cowboys preparing for two more preseason games, and continuing training camp within The Star, there will be little time to sit back and reflect on the scope of what this facility could someday mean to the world of football.
Jason Garrett, as usual, is keeping his team focused – as they understand that the only way to truly break in a new home is to bring in a new Super Bowl trophy for The Star to display after Super Bowl LI.

Getting better a day at a time, exciting football things already took place for the Cowboys on their first day in The Star. Experienced veteran QB Tony Romo and rookie sensation RB Ezekiel Elliott were both back to work, as Dallas plays in Seattle for their “dress rehearsal” in just three days.

The Cowboys’ move into The Star is just another exciting checkpoint crossed on their journey towards an unforgettable 2016 campaign. Inside The Star will continue to have you covered through the preseason and beyond, with all the analysis, news, fantasy advice, and updates that you need to stay connected to America’s Team.
So far, the Cowboys have not lived up to the greatness of their now not-so-new stadium. Will they live up to the greatness of The Star? I guess we’ll see, but they are running out of excuses.
For sure, hopefully as soon as this season The Star will start to represent winning. Certainly cool to think about the new players that will develop and train in this new facility, and make their legacy at The Star much like other legends did at Valley Ranch. Thanks for reading!
Great place to create a championship team.
For sure!
