Well, Romo is going to be released tomorrow. Hopefully he ends up with a contender and has one or two more shots at a super bowl. He only had a team capable of winning a ring a couple of times during his career, and got screwed by the "catch/not catch" one year, and hurt another other. I'll never understand the hate for Romo. His clutch numbers were through the roof, and the only reason he had so many "chokes" was because the awful team around him constantly put him in situations where 28-35 points wasn't enough, and he performed fantastically in situations where he needed a game winning or tying drive, despite the rhetoric from the haters. Dallas fans are spoiled, and many of them are too stupid to understand that he's the ONLY reason Dallas has had any relevance for the last 12 or so years, and that without him they're a 4-6 win team every year. That he played the first decade of his career behind one of the worst O-lines in the league, and still put up fantastic numbers while running for his life. That his team had a top-10 statistical defense ONCE in his career, and for most of it a garbage running game as well. Etc. Etc. Etc. And I'll never understand the hate towards him for not winning a ring. During the course of his career at dallas, there were 14 superbowls played, and only 8 qbs won at least one. 10 of the championships during that time were won by 4 qbs. It's not like it's some easy feat that Romo just couldn't manage because he sucked. While I understand that a superbowl is the main goal of every franchise, it's not prudent to hold a great player, who played great for your team, responsible for the shortcomings of those around him (from the owner on down). I for one wish Tony the best of luck wherever he ends up, and have thoroughly enjoyed watching him lead the cowboys for the last decade or so.
