Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
Far as I'm concerned at this point, three e-mails is a "torrent," so consider this a public service: If you'd like to order yourself one of those pink Tony Romo jerseys, like a certain someone was wearing Sunday at Texas Stadium, all you gotta do is go here -- to the NFL's official pro shop, matter of fact. A mere $59.99 will get you, or a loved one, the "Reebok Dallas Cowboys Tony Romo Women's Vibrant Replica Jersey."
Dunno about the "vibrant" part, but despite what you might have heard on KTCK-AM's morning show today, these jerseys are not associated with Susan G. Komen for the Cure, according to Komen's media relations folks today. Neither is this matching pink hat. Komen did partner with the National Football League Referee Association in October, but just so you know, the Dallas-based breast cancer foundation doesn't get a dime from the sale of those jerseys. Neither does Yoko Romo, for that matter. --Robert Wilonsky
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
