Romo Rolls On
The Tony Romo success story continues in Dallas.
Romo threw five touchdown passes in the Cowboys' lopsided triumph Thursday over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. His 22-for-29, 306-yard throwing performance left him as the league's top-rated passer, ahead of Peyton Manning. The Cowboys are 4-1 since Coach Bill Parcells benched Drew Bledsoe to make Romo the club's starting quarterback, and the lone defeat was on a fluke ending against the Washington Redskins at FedEx Field.
Romo has thrown 13 touchdown passes and five interceptions this season. In his five starts, it's 10 touchdown passes and two interceptions. His five touchdown passes Thursday tied the single-game team record and made him only the fourth quarterback in NFL history to throw that many touchdown passes in a game in one of his first five starts. The last quarterback to accomplish the feat was Kurt Warner for the St. Louis Rams in 1999.

Mark where is the Washington Post article regarding the racist comments delivered by Michael Irvin about Tony Romo's great grandparents/ancestory? "His grandmother snuck out to the barn and met a black young stud?" What sort of ignorance does ESPN employ? The audioclip is available if you google it. This idiot makes me sick.

Hey they're Cowboyz....it's all in the family man. No Kosmo Kramer stuff here.
Michael Irvin should be in the Pro Football Hall Of Fame..along with Bob "Bullet" Hayes for that matter.
Go Cowboys!!!

How about the Cowboys cutting Vanderjagdt!? Is there no clearer sign that Tuna wants to win this season and then head off to Canton immediately? F the salary cap hit. The future is now, just win baby.
Imagine Tuna's HOF speech...I can't wait to see the line-up of his ex-players and coaches in the crowd.
Vanderjagdt...best to ya man, it just didn't work out.
Drew you're aim just wasn't true. One for the 2nd Hand, Romo you da man.

Mark,
Congradulations on your promotion. Mark I have a friend who is a Feild Goal Kicker that is looking for a try-out with a NFL team. He is a un-known in the League but has great talent. He comes from a professional soccer backround and has finally taken my advise to try kicking. I can be reached on my cell @ 626-200-5728. Can you please help?
Thank you,
James Timbrello
