Tony who?

[Pittman4Two]

Just wanted to both drop in and say hi as well as ask who this Tony Romo guy is.

Just kidding, because if anyone in the free world doesn't know who Romo is then they've been living on another planet.

ESPN, CNN, ESPN 2, ESPNNEWS, ABC, CBS, FOX, heck they even talk about the guy on the Weather Channel for crying out loud!

I'm here to say it isn't fair. The Pewter Pirates happen to have one of the premier rookie QB's in the league with B-Ski. Do we get a mention on Football Night in the Universe? Does Bradshaw make a comment about the Toledo Rocket on FOX? Do we even get a shout out by Sehorn? Heck no.

But Tony Romo? Oh yes. Tony's so cute...Tony's the best ever...Tony does a Brett Farve impression...Tony walks like Joe Montana...Tony has the same number as Tommy Kramer...Tony went to school in Illinois which is where the Bears are whom Dick Butkus played for...Tony has moxie (what the heck is that?? Do they keep stats for MOXIE? Excuse me, what's your moxie rating Tony, "It's off the chart, playa"). I could go on but I'll digess.

Hey Cowboys fans...that was your future QB crying on the sidelines. I could almost see through his hand and hat that he was crying. How does that make you feel?

I'll be frank, I'm a little jealous of the pub the Cowboys get. No...seriously. I'm sitting here at the center of football...Tampa Bay and we don't get a whimper. Why is that?

Anyhow, good luck with the greatest man ever to walk on two legs that does Brett Farve impressions while playing quarterback.

Just had to vent. My apologies.

[royhitshard]

Glad you noticed.

Man I love America's Team. Jerry Jones + Parcells + Owens just solidifies it.

Just one of the perks for following America's team.

I really liked Romo's sideline crying. I want to know it to means as much to him as I know it does to all of us. Hell I almost started to cry when it was obvious he was.

 

[DandyDon]

Ummm.....yeah! alot of times we (cowboy fans) wish we didn't get so much media coverage (does TO ring a bell?).......be careful what you wish for......

:laugh2:



As usual... I always enjoy your stuff P4T.

Hey, how about a preview write-up about the Dallas vs. Washington game? Think you could do one for us? Your's are the best.

 

[Fletch]

Pittman4two, I hear your tongue-in-cheek post loud and clear. I hate to say it, but the Cowboys are a world class franchise. That is why you've been hearing so much about Tony Romo as of late. The QB position in Dallas is as big as the NY Yankees as a whole.

Not trying to bost, but it's true. Maybe that 6th or 7th round QB you guys trot out on Sunday will pan out for the Bucs. You just never know.

Oh, and Tony has only one full game in the regular season as the starter. Cowboy fans across the nation hope that what we saw last Sunday night from Romo becomes habitual.

 

[Everlastingxxx]

Can’t wait till Thanksgiving.

 

[Pittman4Two]

So it looks like most of you have bought stock in Tony Romo, Inc., huh?

I agree that the guy looks like he can play the position but should we annoint him the next Brad Johnson just yet? I think that may be a little premature.

Fletch, great movie(s) by the way, I see what you're point is. Sure, the Cowboys may be the biggest team in Dallas but I wholeheartedly feel that the Bucs are the media darlings of the broadcast entities, however something about this Eastern Illinoisian has the NFL League grumbling.

Is it because he's Italian? Is it because he grew up in the Bronx? Is it because he learned from the tutolage of another Italian named Vincente Testaverde? All of the above could be true, but the Toledo Rocket has done more with less.

It's not rocket science to realize that in Toledo Ohio there's not much to do besides play football. So when you have the pedigree that B-Ski does and you come out and lay down your tears and your guts each and every week only to see some guy named after a famous BBQ Rib joint take all of your press you may be a little jealous as well as envious.

But that's just me. Bucco Bruce is made of sterner stuff.

This thread would be funny....if it were actually funny.

Ok...does that make sense?

You know, I saw that and did not think he was crying. I thought it was sweat, rain, something other then tears. I am glad he cares!!! I do!!!

Welcome to the Cowboys, America's Team !!!!

Just as much as this.

for the last time Tony's father is Mexican and his Mom is white (I believe).

He is Bi-racial.
He is a Mexicanglo.

Sorry Fernando. I didn't hear you say it the first time. Now I know.

I wish I was Mexicanglo. I wish I was Tony Romo.

Dude looks about as white as it gets.

Brad Johnson???
Good Lord I hope Romo is better than that.

Is Tampa even on the "football map?" What was it like 20+ years straight of losing seasons?
I will ALWAYS be grateful however to Tampa for the year that they beat the skins (racial slurs) in the last game of the season to keep Wash out of the playoffs. That was a few years back, but it was beautiful.
