News: Fox: Tony Romo arrested in Milwaukee for OWI

[Johannes44]

DWI in Wisconsin? Isn't that a special award in Wisconsin where they give you the keys to the city?

 

[Vtwin]

I like how they abbreviate it as OWI rather than say he got behind the wheel drunk…..I guess to soften the blow. Hard to imagine why someone would do this as a 40 plus year old man with a family when you’re rich. Tiger does it all the time so I guess there’s that

Former Mississippi State QB Dak Prescott arrested, charged with DUI​

You practically never see it reported as "got behind the wheel drunk". No softening going on here.

I’ll take a drunk Romo over Prescott any day of the week

DUI is typically how I’ve seen it posted.

Comparing college Dak to 40 year old Romo is nuts but you got it. Not arguing over who the dui king is….you got it.

I wonder what the "I" stands for?

Given the flush look on his face and the fact that he does sound plastered much of the time, alcohol is my first guess.

Could be weed, prescription meds....a bunch of stuff.

The fact that he "couldn't pass"...well I mean...the comedy writes itself lol

Not cool Tony.

Just joined Dak on the busted for drinking and driving list.
You guys keep following each other around

that's funny!

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

A Romo dui thread featuring Dak is predictable but sad.

 

[darealvelle]

Says ... while under the influence

Tony has a rep for driving fast... he's lucky no one was hurt.

Look at this thug!!!

So where is the softening in this case?

The acronym has changed many times over the years. It was DWI in my early years. Then DUI, now it's all over the place. OUI. OWI, etc. They all mean the same thing.

How is this report being softened?

 

[OGSixshooter]

There have been a couple of rumors lately that things are not good between Tony and his wife

Dang. That'll do it.

Young Romo was goofy and idealistic. Parcells kept warning him darker days were ahead.

Then he got punished by unfortunate gaffes - much of it him, a ton of it on others though - from which I believe he never recovered.

By 2012, when he said he "figured it out", he had convinced himself he was going to win a SB.

Then one day in 2016, it all went away when he got injured and Dak kept winning.

When he conceded the job he said he went to "a dark place". I don't think he's emerged from it the same if at all.

Links? or is this just spreading BS rumors?

 

[Whyjerry]

I never really liked Romo. I never understood the love he got around here. Guy has a great life. I hope he is smart enough not to ruin it.

DUI is more widely known than OWI. But it’s now being reported by everyone as a DUI now.

 

[SymphonySteve]

Was it Old Milwaukee?

If so, they need to up the charges...

I mean he literally said rumors probably some he created lol.

 

[DFWJC]

The network could use this as an excuse to get out of that big contract.
Bad decision to drive, Tony.

It does not take much to fail a breathalyzer. 2 drinks could even do it.

Unless you don't drink at all, everyone here has probably had 2 drinks and gotten in a car thinking they are just fine. Maybe did not even give a 2nd thought.

Not at all saying that is what happened here, btw. This was probably more than that

If you see a fainting couch...it's very likely someone is required to faint due to some manufactured anxiety. Professional victims...data-driven in fact.

SMH These guys have access to free NFL car services and still drive drunk.

no they don't.
But he could afford an uber, of course.
