Question
I thought Cowboys wore their blue jerseys at home and white jerseys away from home. I noticed that they wore their white jerseys the last two home games. My daughter wanted me to find out why - so I am asking you. Thanks
Lucretia Ann:
You are correct that most teams wear dark jersies at home and white on the road.
But, with a few exceptions, the Cowboys normally wear white at home and blue on the road. That has been their tradition since 1964 when they adopted their current uniforms.
Thanx for asking.

Expertise
My particular expertise is Dallas Cowboys history from 1960-1988 (the Landry era); I'm also a Cowboys book fanatic (I have almost 300 different Cowboys-related titles), and I also collect Cowboys football cards (but stopped in 93). But I am not an expert in the value of cards or collectibles – so please don't ask.
Before you ask: "So-and-so" almost certainly DID NOT PLAY for the Cowboys -- trust me! Before you ask me, ask the guy for proof!
Finally, I DO NOT ANSWER “PRIVATE” QUESTIONS! My work requires research, so the results must be made public.
Experience
I had a Cowboys webpage recognized around the Internet as the authoritative list of Cowboys links, and I have a Cowboys book collection second to none (approx. 300 titles). In addition to my book collection, I have every Cowboys media guide back to 1960, which makes researching questions much easier.
