Tony BartLettBucknerRomo
I just got done pumping the vending machine at work like it was a Street Fighter II game (Turbo Edition), so forgive me if I come across slightly overzealous. Is it even possible to be slightly overzealous? I digress…
A good friend once told me that more games are lost than are won. With that in mind, I present you Tony Romo, whose entire body of work is now marred by one botched snap. Everything he did – 5TD passes on Thanksgiving, 3 300yd games, 4 game winning streak, a Pro Bowl selection, Jessica Simpson – is erased by his butter fingers. Think I’m being too harsh and unfair? Think again.
He mucked up the bleeping hold on a 19 fucking yard field goal for a freaking playoff win. When people tell you they could’ve completed that throw, or run for that first down, or caught that pass, they are generally being facetious. When I say that I could’ve effing put down the blanking hold properly I am 100% freaking serious. It’s catching a ball, spinning it around, and placing your index finger on the top. It’s not exactly as if we’re talking quantum physics here.
Tony BartLettBucknerRomo is eternally the man who lost a playoff game for the Cowboys with something so simple as failing to put down the hold on a 19 yard field goal.
