For “America’s Team,” celebrity endorsement is not simply a publicity stunt; it’s a longstanding romance, at times transferred through family relationships, at times ignited through boyhood heroes, and sometimes strained through controversy. They add their own personal histories to the Cowboys legacy, from halftime concert headliners to vocal critics of the team’s management.
