Orton had a bad relationship with Tim Tebow, too.

Uh, I think it's you, Kyle. How can you have a bad relationship with Tony Romo? He's the easiest going cat in the locker room.

Orton wanted to hold a clipboard and make that easy money. Romo's back scared him off. Actually having to play in Buffalo was not in his plans.

Sounds about right. Still wish we just deactivated him or fined him the whole season (detrimental to the team or something?) He won...:thumbdown:

I think it's Orton too but how would you know Romo is the easiest going person in the locker room?

Mike Fisher who is around the Cowboys everyday, says that he often saw Orton hanging out with Romo and Witten. He saw them eating lunch together, etc..

Uh yeah, I think I'm gonna side with Romo on this one. I mean c'mon, the guy just reeks of douchiness.

how could you not? I know someone that played college ball with him and said he was just a stupid nice guy.

Yea the mail man's brother had a friend that went ball room dancing with him that said he wasn't.

Tyron Smith and Scandrick seems like they're easy going.

What a lame bit of reporting. All they did was regurgitate the little bit of info Ed Werder's tweet. No additional information. No follow up questions to Werder to see if he had anything else to add to the story.

agreed and I was disappointed too that we folded allowing him to win but heck, it's not my money! As far as Orton, his thoughts are pretty irrelevant at this point and while we're at it, I think his thoughts about Romo or the "offense power struggle" while a BACK-UP last year were irrelevant then too. His job was to support the team's goals and be ready to play when called upon.

I don't even know if Werder would talk to them since ESPN Dallas is sort of a competitor of the DMN...

But yeah, this counts as a story these days: Take a tweet or two and make it your own.

Thank you! Beat me to it. The article (if it even deserves that distinction) has an embedded link described as a report but it is a link to Werder's tweet.

It is 2014. Has humanity evolved to the stage where tweets equate to reports? That's not only lame. It's lazy.

One more reason I love Tony Romo. Never liked Orton here. Matter of fact never liked his dorky porn star stashed / bearded face just about anywhere. Enjoy December-January in Buffalo Chief Jackwagon.

There's no more substance to THIS story that Ed's tweet. How about a quote from Orton?
Take this with a grain of salt.
