Conan just took a shot at Romo

[Zordon]

Did anybody just see that? Hometown crowd cheered it too. SMH the hate has gotten out of hand.

Dirk Nowitzki: What's the leading cause for cardiac arrests in Texas?

Conan O'Brien: Tony Romo

*Majestic Theatre crowd cheers profusely*

Yea all those late game sealing missed sacks by George Selvie really stop the heart like a late game sealing INT.

Always truth in comedy and the truth hurts.

I am pretty sure I have read on here before that Dirk would text Tony with props so that should be the first clue it's a joke.

And oh yea that Conan dude. Isn't he a comedian? Tony would probably laugh if he heard it.

 

[cajuncocoa]

It's not necessarily an insult. But it is a joke.

Along with announced guests Adam Sandler (whom some people in line spotted outside the theater) and comedian Tig Notaro, Dallas Mavericks star Dirk Nowitzki made a cameo to give O’Brien — who’d bragged about how well he’d done his research — a “Texas citizenship” quiz. Sample questions and answers: “What’s the state bird?” “Beef.” “What’s the state flower?” “Beef.” “What’s the leading cause of heart attacks?” “Tony Romo.”

Sounds like Conan was getting his audience to laugh at themselves (and be laughed at) along with the Romo joke. He's a comedian. Mission accomplished.
