MAKE UP YOUR MIND, ALREADY!

In the eight months between being awarded a franchise in January and playing their 1st game in August, 1960 Dallas went through 2 other "official" names before finally sticking with the "Cowboys".
What were the 2 former, official names of the Dallas Cowboys?

[ScreamingWeasel]

Wow.
I thought this would be answered in about 2 minutes!
Surprise on me!

i believe it was the rangers, but not sure though.

dunno about the 2nd one, but they were named the texans before they moved to KC. so i will say the the texans and rangers.

Half way there.
The Rangers is correct. The 2nd of the 2 names, and the one just prior to the Cowboys.

The Dallas franchise entered the NFL as the
Dallas Steers
then changed their name to the
Dallas Rangers
but there was a local minor league baseball team with the same name so they finally settled on the
Dallas Cowboys

I could have sworn one of the names was "Dallas Cow-Punchers"
