That doesn't sound like ashing out.

I was thinking the same thing. Where did he LASH out? I thought he had a good humorous comeback.

"I'm going to be able to sleep at night," Romo said. "I know it's tough on you with that haircut for you to sleep at night."

Ed took the insult like a Girlie-man, which is a good thing. Would have hated to see even more tears cause his makeup to run like a fat man after eating chili.

That's going to leave a mark :)

Kinda weak to criticize his looks, though. Romo should've gone after his lousy negative reporting.

That's sorta what I thought, hence the Stuart "the eye" Scott comment.

He probably knows Werder pretty well, so maybe it was all in good fun, a couple of guys joking with each other.

Or maybe all of this crap is starting to get to him and he decided to give it back.

It will be interesting to see how they edit this for Sportscenter, or whatever venue ESPN will use to show this report. They may leave the exchange in, or take it out.

We'll find out Sunday whether Tony Romo can shake off a late-season slump and get back into Pro Bowl form on the field. But there's no doubt that his wit is as sharp as ever.

ESPN star Ed Werder asked Romo whether it bothered him that he's not given the benefit of the doubt regarding off-field activities after the great season he had. Romo replied that he didn't care and wasn't worried about perception.

"I'm going to be able to sleep at night," Romo said. "I know it's tough on you with that haircut for you to sleep at night."

Seems like a legitimate question. Not sure why Romo went all 7th grade on him. What's next a yo mamma joke?

Maybe because, like a 3 year old might, that group of reporters asked that same question about 4 or 5 different ways, looking for a different answer. They got the same answer every time ("I don't care about the perception of me...") except this time Romo got sick of it and made fun of somebody who has consistently covered the Cowboys in a bad light over the past few years.

Basically, it was a legitimate question, the first time it was asked.

Romo and Werder have a solid rapport. From what I understand, not much in the way of venom behind that statement. Some laughter.

Talk about sensationalism and blowing things out of proportion.

I heard the entire interview on GAC and Tony Romo did not lash out at Ed Werder.

As a matter of fact, after Tony Romo made that joke, everyone laughed about it.

He didn't make that comment out of spite or in a mean-spirited fashion in any way, shape or form.

A personal attack. No.


A point made to step up and not speculate and propagate. Yes.


The remark had nothing to do with the hair, and all to do with being comfortable enough with self to sleep at night
