    Anything to avoid seeing Jessica at home?

    Obama/Romo - hey, maybe Obama could try and steal Texas!

    What a queer. It is all a media ploy. I hope him and the rest of the Cowgirls die.

    I'm not a Cowboy fan, but that's a cool story for any QB for any team. I like the part where the guy tells Romo not to tell him how they did so he could go home and watch it. I can imagine doing the same thing.

    Well, if Tony wouldn't have stopped, then we would likely be reading this morning about a murdered couple who had car trouble and noone stopped except a couple of punks looking to rob/kill someone.

    Kind of a dick thing to say about Vince Young. Depression is real, no matter your tax bracket, no matter the job you get paid for.

    Romo threw down a spike strip and set up the whole thing.

    So much for everybody else in the Dallas area. That must tell you something that out of all the people that could have stopped, a pro football player that makes millions was the one that did. Dallas loses again.

    Yea...I'm sure they were all mind readers that this couple needed help...because he and his wife were out there flagging cars down. The guy was trying to fix his tire with an air compressor and it wasn't working. I'm sure you can tell that by just driving by him. Most people can handle and deal with a flat tire. The only thing that sets this apart is Tony Romo has a small town mindset where everybody knows everybody and helps everybody. Big city folk who didn't grow up in that small town environment don't think like small town folk. In fact, that small town mindset in the big city can get you in trouble, e.g. like the dumb small town kid who approached a person at 2:45 am in the morning in Houston to see if he could score him some cocaine and paid for that mistake with his life. Most big city folk would know that is a completely dumb/risky move and would not have the gumption to do that. Your kidding yourself if you think every Houstonian would have stopped to help in a similar situation. Most of you'll would have driven right by as well. Oh...Houston is full of good sumaritans every corner you turn. Bull*****!

    I helped someone with a flat before.. (as did many other people I'm guessing)

    Where are all the other news articles? The best deeds are the ones that go unnoticed. Nice sensationalism by media.

    Uh, because it says right there in the article that the only person to know about it was that reporter, because the wife emailed him? :rolleyes:

    What are the other papers supposed to do, join the Psychic Friends Network or have someone tailing Tony Romo's car at all times?

    Tons of Rockets fans are Cowboys fans. Me included.

    Cowboys fans are state-wide.
