Fallen star: Why 2023 is a make-or-break year for Tony Romo

[5Stars]

Heck yeah! Pay's great, get to travel the country to the big cities, fine dining, hang out with football royalty, and you're not running for your life from 300lb gorillas. Not a bad gig at all.

I always wanted to see Emmitt in da boof calling the broadcast.

usually Romo is broken every year

Sorry too soon

It would be Romo v Aikman since they are the color guys

Sho'nuff...That's awesome!

The last dragon is unironically one of my favorite movies

Absolutely! Hey, any movie with Vanity in it already has a leg up! Add in the campiness of Buffy and the homage to Bruce, and you can't help but like that movie!

I like listening to Romo. He's way more interesting than Chris "You got a guy here" Collingsworth and most other announcers. I wish there was a button on my remote that could just shut out the commentators and leave the game sounds.

One question. In a make or break career year, doesn’t that usually mean that there’s no guaranteed salary if the performance isn’t up to par? Doesn’t he have guaranteed salary no matter what throughout 2030?

Unless it make or break from NBCs point of view in getting their value?

Have you ever tried listening to a game on the radio and watching it on TV at the same time? It's really cool to do because the radio guys give out better info because the listener can't see the TV. Try it some time.

If I remember correctly, they did a game with no announcers. It has been a while since it happened, so it must not have caught on. I thought it was pretty cool myself.

probably one of those dak worshipping yahoos started that rumor.

Romo is a competitive athlete. It’s pretty obvious IMO he’d get bored with the booth. He probably still has the itch to play, especially considering how his career ending.

If you have a surround sound system, just mute your center channel. Problem solved.

A note from Tony to his detractors: "My net worth is over 70m and I'm married to Miss Missouri 2008, I'm a scratch golfer and I only work 1 day a week. The world is my oyster, hold my beer."

So Romo gets bashed yet that imbecile Greg Olsen is beign praised? Lmao. That dude is so trash it's not even funny

Was going to post this. He is an adrenaline and competition junkie. I’m sure he is bored but that’s way too much money to turn down. I have always believed he would come back to the game as a coach but he may have too money at some point to pull the trigger.

Article comes across as petty to me. As if the writer has a personal grudge.

It's sad that we have devolved to where social media is referenced as a valid source of criticism to be used by a wannabe journalist to toot his horn.

 

[Flamma]

What the hell is this? onomatopoeia

 

[stilltheguru]

I don't get it. What's wrong with Romo in the booth? I've never heard him and had an issue.

 

[Vtwin]

What the hell is this? onomatopoeia

You know. It's that thing that made John Madden a beloved and much admired NFL broadcasting legend.

When Romo does it, apparently it's a crutch for the unprepared.

Collinsworth does it a lot also.

Olsen figured out who’s boots to lick pretty early….I think one of the horses he bet on is gonna be turned out for glue sooner rather than later
