I don't blame Romo one bit -- it's his last opportunity at a big contract.
Even saintly Drew Brees held out for as much money as he could for exactly the same reasons.
Yes, it certainly doesn't help the team get any better because it reduces the amount of money available for everyone else, however, it's hard to blame Romo for expecting at least market value.

He hasn't done anything to help the team contract wise that didn't help himself even more. He has not taken a penny less than he was due to help the team. He has simply told Jerry it was okay to give him his salary for the season upfront and rename it a bonus so it could be spread out over several seasons. That's no different than lottery winners who take the lump sum. Let me see, do I want a bunch of money right now or do I want smaller amounts every week during the season? It's a no brainer and it's nothing he deserves credit for. No player has ever said no to a restructure that didn't include a paycut and none ever will. Just a little perspective.
