I like Tony. He is the guy who shows everybody that there is no need to get an degree in medicine. All you need is a clear eye view to make a diagnose.

Maybe thats the reason he needs to post on twitter to make his income?! Who knows.

They must've move the line because all the money was going on Minny side. I guess a lot of people are banking on him not playing.

Like I said, even if all the money was coming in on the Vikes, they wouldn't just wait and move the line 5.5 all at once. That's way too much money you're talking about. When I was a Race and Sportsbook writer, the general rule of thumb was to to move the line by .5 if one team had $5,000 more wagered on them than the team they were playing and 1 point once a team had $10,000 more wagered on them over the other. And that was at little Jerry's Nugget in North Las Vegas. Not sure what the limits were in the larger casinos or if they were any different at all.

So you must think someone got some solid info Dak would be out? I didn't watch the line throughout the week. I just know it's moved a good deal and it happened to coincidence with Daks calf being sore. Sounds to me like they were banking on him being out and the money was going to heavy to Minny.

"Mem'ries,
Light the corners of my mind
Misty water-colored memories
Of the way we were
Scattered pictures,
Of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another
For the way we were
Can it be that it was all so simple then?
Or has time re-written every line?
If we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me, would we? Could we?"

If he’s flying to Minnesota, he’s playing. Let’s go

Wrong. Russell Wilson travelled with the team despite being injured. Doesn’t mean he’s gonna play. Dak could be in sweats on the sidelines for all we know. Do not get your hopes up.

Lol...man, that is just one thing I don't do is gamble. I wish I knew how to invest.

I bet you $5.00 the Cowboys will lose.

Good info brother. I asked this question in another thread.

The line hadn't moved at all until yesterday. Then it jumped 5.5 out of the blue. Someone got some solid info in my opinion.

Romo wasn't that tough, unfortunately. His little body couldn't handle the punishment of playing 16+ games a year in the NFL.
He was tough as nails until the end of his career. That poor guy took so much abuse early and kept getting back up. You can't correctly say he wasn't tough.

Here’s the deal having familiarity with this injury. It’s nagging and lingering in nature. If his calf is not FULLY healed, he WILL aggregate it tomorrow, carrying the nagging aspect of this into the next two weeks….
I don’t believe we can beat Minnesota on the road without Dak, but I’d much rather take this loss and get Dak back to 100% then risk him almost certainly taking this injury into the next month of football.

With the recent loss of his grandma and this game being important for the Cowboys, Dak is likely under a lot of emotional stress. Yet, look at Dak looking calm and focused. Dak is one of the strongest minds I have seen in a very long time. Much love and prayers to him and the team. I'm sure the team is going to play their butts off for Dak.

Win one for #4. Prescott is a true leader amongst men and I think it will show through tomorrow night.

It got to the point where he couldn't take an NFL hit anymore without experiencing moderate to severe back issues. He was tough in the beginning but after years of pounding behind terrible offensive lines, he couldn't take it anymore.
yea, same with Gronk/........ forget the fact that hit he took would have craked all of us on our keyboards sternums and broke 5 or 6 ribs, I think Gronk is just old and cant take the its any longer......smh

I don't hate Romo? I don't think he was quite elite but he was usually very good and the second best quarterback we've had since Troy Aikman.
well sorry, to say he wasnt tough is either just ignorance or hate, take your pick.
