Romo replaces Phil Simms

[The Fonz]

So many NFL fans happy to see Phil Simms out

 

[rynochop]

My only disappointment is hearing Romo talk about how great Rothlisberger and Brady is

 

[haleyrules]

Where is Simms going?

They are having him euthanize!.

 

[Fletch]

Tony being Tony! The guy has the charisma to talk. #1 team on CBS next to Jim Nantz is where he belongs!

 

[Nightman]

Jim Nance and Romo are friends. Not just passing acquaintances, but actual longer term friends.

The chance to step into the #1 broadcasting team is a fairly rare window of opportunity.

Working with a friend should help in what could be a rough transition. Its not an easy job.

Anyway, timing wise, look for CBS to really pump this during the Masters this weekend.

Tony should hop the next private jet to Augusta and get the royal CBS treatment

I am guessing Simms will be back on Inside the NFL full-time again. It is always fun watching Boomer pick on him

 

[Phoenix]

GOT HEEEEEEEEEEEEM!

 

[Reverend Conehead]

I think Romo's going to be an excellent sportscaster.

 

[BigD16]

Looks like Romo did end up upgrading the QB position, just not on an NFL roster.

 

[yesfan]

We got a 2 for. They get rid of Simms and Tony gets a cushy gig.

So Romo gets to go to the Super Bowl this year.

Clearly I am in the minority, but I like Phil Simms as an announcer.

I do too
Tony should study what Madden did, and learn from it
He was my favorite

Ouch

 

[Texas_Pete]

The Gnats take another L from Dem Boyz!

 

[MrPeanutbutter]

Ouch

Didn't really mean to strike a nerve

 

[Reality]

Romo just Beldsoe'd (or should we say Romo'ed?) another former starting quarterback from their position.

 

[TheCoolFan]

I think we will see a side of Romo we've never seen before...he's been holding back on his personality for the last 8 years. He might end up doing bits like Gruden or have no filter like Charles Barkley and say whatever's on his mind.

 

[Asklesko]

don't understand this. phil simms wasn't terrible? and romo has no experience.

 

[reddyuta]

Phil Simms was beyond terrible.

So Romo gets to go to the Super Bowl this year.
