As Tony Romo recovers from December back surgery, Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett isn’t letting him take any unnecessary risks. So, it is noteworthy to see Romo’s name on the roster of celebs and athletes scheduled to play in Saturday in the Dirk Nowitzki’s 2014 Heroes Celebrity Baseball Game at Dr Pepper Ballpark.

But a closer look shows that Romo’s position is listed as “dugout coach.”

At press time, the roster includes present and former Cowboys Dez Bryant, Terrell Owens, Jason Garrett, Bradie James, Terrance Williams and Jason Witten. Current and former Mavericks include coach Rick Carlisle, Monta Ellis, Devin Harris, Bernard James, Shane Larkin, Edward Najera, Mavs president Donnie Nelson and Jason Terry.

Side question: anyone here going to this thing?

 

[DFWJC]

It should be a lot of fun.
Dirk says his old buddy Pudge is coming back to town for it. Michael Young too. So Dirk says he'll try to stack the team in his favor seeing that he lost the last two. haha

As for Tony; obviously he would not play. How dumb would that be.

Anyway, it's a good charity event.

That could get awkward.

Monta's going to be juiced. He's a huge Cowboys fan and used to wear #8 because of Aikman.

Anyone worried about TO interacting with Dez.

Anyone worried about TO interacting with Dez.

Or Witten punching T.O. in the face.

Or Witten punching T.O. in the face.

Vanilla punching chocolate?

Vanilla punching chocolate?

For the record I've got nothing against chocolate.

These concerns are unfounded.

Ahh that Jason garret...... Not often have less competent people been given better opportunities to squander

 

[GusTheo]

Romo's really taking this game seriously, hat is forward.

I got to go yesterday......really fun game to watch. It was nice to see all those guys out there from current Dallas sports athletes like Terrance Williams, Dez, Romo, Witten to past ones like Michael Finley, Michael Young, TO, Pudge.....I'm not the biggest baseball fan but it was solid to watch. Even got to see Jason Garrett out there. I wondered what the reception would be for certain players. I expected to hear some boos for some select few guys but there wasn't. Dirk got the biggest cheers but surprisingly after him it was probably Witten. Even TO got some love.

 

[Sportsbabe]

Tony looks "football" good in that picture.

Pls elaborate your stalker tendencies. I feel like I need to cleanse myself with antiseptic ever time I get your responses or creepy IMs from yew.

And I say creepy with all doo respect.
