Absolutely.
Bryant is from Texas, played college ball up the road, has a huge fan base. Hand-selected his jersey number and already pronounced him to be the next great '88'.
I didn't regret the move then and I still don't now. Makes good sense from a business and personel standpoint.
Even when Bryant gets in trouble, it still means people are talking about Dallas, more exposure, more visibility to the brand. Good or bad, news is news.
