Seem like I always see Urlacher on something or another. And yesteryear Bears had their own rap video.
And I always make fun of the Namath pantyhose ad, not to mention seeing Chrebet for years.
Getting exposure to a state with less than a million who are more interested in watching the rodeo certainly isnt accomplishing as much as a mere city with millions of residents.
And who would the pitchman be for the Cowboys ? I would say Roy. But did you perhaps have someone else in mind ?
The Cowboys have a regional advantage as well as a national one. Dallas is the #7 DMA (Washington is #8) but that doesn't begin to tell the whole story. Houston (#10) although having it's own team, still has a considerable Cowboys following. Also, San Antonio (#37), Oklahoma City (#45), Austin (#53), and Shreveport (#81) are "Cowboys" towns. Those are just in the top 100. The second 100 DMA's have another large group of Cowboys towns including Laredo, Corpus Christi, Midland-Odessa. Abilene, Waco, El Paso, and San Angelo.
The fact that the San Antonio region does not have an NFL team is a huge advantage to Jerry....and he knows it. It is the principal reason the Cowboys returned to the Alamodome this season.
