Shutdown Corner has looked through the gift requests, from the Martha Stewart Cupcake Tree to the Double Dip Dish to the Kate Spade New York dessert knife set and jotted down a few of our thoughts:

• As if forcing people to make the trip to Dallas on a three-day weekend wasn't bad enough, the Romos then ask folks to buy them various home knick-knacks that they'll never use and easily could have afforded for themselves? I suppose you have to get a rich guy something when he gets married, I just never figured it would be a six-dollar gravy boat.

• Romo and Crawford asked for cheese plates, cupcake stands, salad bowls, chip and dip holders and an ice bucket. Those should work out perfect for the Super Bowl party both will be available to host.

• They registered for three tea lights that cost 50 cents each. Dez Bryant(notes) is going to get a talking to from his financial manager if he bought the couple the $230 toaster instead of those candles.

• A french fry holder and candle holder were on the registry. Can't say I'm surprised Romo asked for help in holding onto things.

• In the truest sign yet that the lockout has already started affecting NFL players, nobody bought the couple the three most expensive items on the registries: Calphalon cookware ($569), a Dyson vacuum ($549) and Wusthof cutlery ($399). DeMaurice Smith, you only have yourself to blame if and when Romo and Crawford's poorly-cut, unevenly-cooked dinners fall on the floor and are unable to be picked up by the world's first bagless vacuum.

Oh my gosh, this article is so full of stupidity. Wow.

I read that a little earlier. I had to read it twice to make sure I wasn't losing my mind. It was obviously written by an idiot while in a drunken stupor. :laugh2:

I'm not usually the bash the media type, but goodness gracious. This seems really unprofessional.

Like Tony really picked out a freakin' cupcake tree or a gravy boat. Aren't wedding gifts standard, even for "rich guy" weddings?

What a joke.

All this shows is that Romo is still a pretty simple down home guy that really doesn't care about fancy things or money.

Why would anyone be criticized for that? This writer comes off as an entitled ******.
