News: Bledsoe takes shot at Romo

[WoodysGirl]

For some throwback news

--------------------------------------------------------
13. Speaking of Brady, if you didn’t know, his former Patriots teammate, Drew Bledsoe, apparently greatly preferred backing up TB12 to former Cowboys star Tony Romo, who now broadcasts for network rival CBS. But now, we definitively know. "Romo, you know this is true,” Bledsoe said on a feature during ESPN’s “Sunday NFL Countdown.” “The minute that he became the starter, he became pretty big in his own mind. He was no longer the curious, inquisitive guy. That was the difference between him and Tommy. … All of a sudden Romo was the guy that had all the answers."

Hey Drew, jealous much?

 

[darthseinfeld]

There was a really funny parody Bledsoe blog from when Romo took over. Cant mention the name here though

Hey Drew, jealous much?

This isn’t the first time we’ve heard people say this about romo

 

[StarMan2112]

I don’t find this hard to believe. I never could stand Romo.

 

[Runwildboys]

Well, I understand why someone wouldn't be asking advice from the guy who was benched.

BP knew it was coming and tried to stop it. It doesn't suprise me to hear this. Romo was awesome, but he might have been even better had he kept his rookie mentality.

 

[ClappingCarrot]

Hey Drew, jealous much?

Bledsoe, jealous of Romo?

Dude actually won some games in the playoffs. Romo never even came remotely close to taking snaps in a Super Bowl. If you want to say Bledsoe is jealous because Romo married Miss Iowa, I'll hear you out.

I don't think the statements are far off. He was always arrogant and aloof at the same time.

Well, I understand why someone wouldn't be asking advice from the guy who was benched.

The difference over night is probably his issue. Benched or not Bledsoe was a vet and knew the game well.

I was a huge Romo guy, but this isn’t exactly hard to believe. Early on Romo had a huge head on him.

This isn’t the first time we’ve heard people say this about romo

That’s what I was gonna say. People keep saying it and people write them off a disgruntled.

 

[jwitten82]

Lol shots fired, but yea this isn't hard to believe

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

I was a huge Romo guy, but this isn’t exactly hard to believe. Early on Romo had a huge head on him.

I don’t even think it’s that big of a deal. He was young.

I try to picture what if I was a guy that everyone doubted find myself 4th on the depth chart to staring for the Dallas Cowboys as a 25 or 26 year old. Romo is a different guy now but I certainly can believe it.

Well, I understand why someone wouldn't be asking advice from the guy who was benched.

That's pretty shortsighted. Similar to Micahs comments saying he's seen it all.

Well, he beat you out so just a bunch of sour grapes. Very petty.

 

[Ranching]

The difference over night is probably his issue. Benched or not Bledsoe was a vet and knew the game well.

He also had pride and a big ego. The good ones always do

I mean I don’t know if jealous is the word but he did unseat him. I’d expect him to feel a way.

 

[stiletto]

Guess Romo didn't want to know how to suck more??... I mean what did Bledsoe really have to offer at that point? I'm not saying Romo was great but I've never seen Bledsoe raise a Lombardi either.

Seems Bledsoe thinks he was better than he really was, to me anyway.

 

[darthseinfeld]

I do think Bledsoe stayed class to Brady. I remember seeing something a while back where they would go skiing together after Bledsoe retired

 

[viman96]

I remember Bledsoe pouting on the sideline when he got benched.
