PLAYERS: Tony Romo
TEAMS: Dallas Cowboys
Getty Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo took advantage of an opportunity to fire back at his critics during a new Starter ad campaign that he’s been featured in. “People focus on what we haven’t accomplished,” Romo says in the video below. “They focus on mistakes, the near misses, the heartbreaks. People say we haven’t succeeded. People say we haven’t won a championship. People critique our lives. People are focused on what we haven’t done. That’s what I’m focused on, too.” I can’t blame Romo for defending himself.  Now he needs to get on the field and prove his doubters wrong even though the Cowboys seem to have a lot more issues this season than they have in the past few years.

Tony Romo Leaves the Backwards Hat at Home For Cowboys Luncheon

I'm always selling the dream T... The Dallas Cowboys Kickoff Luncheon took place this week and Tony Romo was all decked out for the annual affair. It’s always a little strange to see Romo in a suit and no hat. Proceeds of the 19th annual luncheon, which was held at Cowboys Stadium, went to the Cowboys Courage House. The private school’s purpose is to equip motivated students...

Dallas Cowboys end preseason on very high note

Over the past 9 days, the Dallas Cowboys have played two preseason games. Both games truned out to be wins, a 20-19 nail-biter against the St. Louis Rams, and a 30-13 thrashing of the Miami Dolphins in the preseason finale. Against the Rams, the first team offense finally found the endzone. And they did it twice, as Tony Romo hit Dwayne Harris for 2 TDs in the victory, and the second...

Cowboys’ Romo supports Dez Bryant

It could probably be argued that the tumultuous start to Cowboys third-year receiver Dez Bryant’s NFL career should have been predictable, considering his track record coming out of Oklahoma State. The extent of Bryant’s off-field issues reached a new low on Monday when he was arrested for allegedly domestically assaulting his own mother. But Bryant [...]

Should Dez Bryant call Jerry Jones “Daddy?”

Sorry, Mom! Forget Tony Romo and the sometimes ill-timed interception that seems to offset super-athletic flashes of utter brilliance. When it comes to off-the-charts, untapped athletic—and football—prowess, Dez Bryant is the most frustrating Dallas Cowboy of them all. Writing his column, Shutdown Corner, for Yahoo! Sports, Doug Farrar puts it quite well: The Dallas Cowboys have...

Cowboys make quick leap into regular season mode

The Dallas Cowboys can now completely focus on what they've already been thinking about for a long time. Their three-win preseason is done, and next is their unprecedented midweek season opener at the New York Giants. They return to the same stadium where they played last year's finale, with a loss that kept them out of the playoffs. What was a Thursday for everybody else...

Super Bowl champion Giants lacking respect

From oddsmakers to experts, people aren't giving the New York Giants the respect a Super Bowl champion deserves. Eli Manning and Co. sneaked into the playoffs last year and then played their best football in January and February. For the second time in five years, they beat the favored New England Patriots to claim the Vince Lombardi Trophy. With nearly all their starters on...
