Skip Bayless and Crew I saw today a story which aired I believed on ESPN, where Skip Bayless said, " While I was laying on the couch watching the Cowboy game and saw Romo throw a pick six which was intercepted by Bobby (Barbie) Carpenter, I wondered if Romo had subliminal thoughts and threw the ball to Carpenter on purpose." That has to be the most stupid comment I have ever heard come out of the mouth of any sports reporter. However you have to understand, it was Skip Bayless that said this, so I took the comment as just a Bayless asinine statement. Bayless is not the sharpest knife in the drawer. With that said, I am still stunned that even Bayless came up that thought.
The scrutiny of Romo continues, and more than likely will not stop until Romo wins a Super Bowl championship. It is unfair, however that is life in the NFL, provided that you are the Quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys or you are the Quarterback of an NFL team and fight dogs for fun; if you are in that category, your life will be miserable. The scrutiny of Tony Romo goes beyond anything I have ever seen. It is beyond bizarre.
The NFL channel and ESPN make a living on scrutinizing Tony Romo. It is just not report the facts and move on, it is questioning his intelligence and anything else one could imagine. It is what it is, but I do believe that there are 32 other QB's in the league that hadve had meltdowns. However it is the Cowboys. I believe the whole issue boils down to is that the Cowboys are the most popular football team in the nation, and it bothers people that the Cowboys are still "Americas Team".
