Romo's comments

[ROMOTOOWENS]

What did you think about them ? If you wartched it, it almost sounded like he he needed a tissue and that he was close to the end. Then he fired off he was gonna play til he 45. He said his best 4 or 5 yrs are still ahead. I know it was the first day, but all we have heard is he is 100 percent. A little disappointing to me that he threw as little as he did yesterday.

His throwing did look tentative. I'm just going to assume he is close to 100% and that they are being extra cautious. Maybe Lee has something to do with that.

He's fresh off surgery on his back. I'm glad he's not throwing a ton early.

I think I believe what I see and not what I hear or read. My gut tells me he'll be fine, but I want to see it.

Supposedly he is 100 percent. Then he spoke about his body getting healthier and healthier over time. I don't know if this means he will work out more or what. He did say he spent 4 hrs in rehab yesterday.

I think he cares way more than he gets credit for. At the end of the day though, if the Cowboys don't win big, nobody will care how much this matters to him. He's been far from perfect, but one thing I've never doubted, is that winning matters to him.

I agree. I think the little shit eating grin he gets after a huge screw up is a defense mechanism. I think those losses eat him up much more than they do us. I think he probably cares as much if not more than any player around. That is why it always bothered me when people criticized him for playing golf. Many players play golf, he just happens to be good enough at it to play in these qualifiers. Also, some people don't like to sit at home on the couch and he always struck me as a person that always had to be doing something. I've never questioned his desire to win or dedication to the game.

Anyone who plays with the guts Romo does cares about the game. If I had time, I'd like to go back and see how many of Romo's ''chokes'' came in games where he had already given his team a 4th quarter lead or games in which his D was getting blown to bits and he had to throw into a prevent. Somehow, I think if he had a running back like Lynch and a D like Seattle's, he'd be Drew Brees
