Tony Romo stays at CBS for 17 mil per year

https://www.yahoo.com/sports/report-ton ... 12624.html

ESPN was trying to get him and CBS paid up big time to keep him

So...any other plans to replace Tess and Booger?

He's in a league of his own. He's the only analyst that can accurately predict the next play call for the offense. It's uncanny and that ability absolutely enhances the experience for the viewers... at least for me.

BPunk-I don't know but he should have quit football many years before he did.
Yes the guy knows the game..He isn't horrible at the job but the money for a color
guy?I love the game but I don't need to listen to paid DJ's hawking the product.
I can see it for myself.

Does this count against the Cowboys cap????

Would it matter? Even without a cap they still wouldn't win an NFC Championship let alone a Super Bowl.

No, but it would be funny if it did. 8)

Romo is a likable guy. He’s a terrible commentator. It’s only a matter of time before people realize that and his contract becomes an albatross.

I think he’s actually good, but gets over excited at times. I think he was an over-rated QB for what it’s worth.

Concur, but he was a COWBOY and don't you know the football world revolves around THE COWBOYS.

Romo is the best in the game, but 17 mil? Wow! Good for him though. I got no hard feelings for him.

Same here. I enjoy listening to Romo. He's spot on.

Who are you to judge how much someone should make? They offered him the money should he say that's aburd amount of money, and I should refuse it?

All I can say is that I do not enjoy game with Romo on the call. He just explained that the QB can hand the ball off on a read option. I think he can even diminish Jim Nantz’.

I like how Romo calls the game.

He's neutral to both teams and is enjoyable.

A lot of the Thanksgiving audience are not football fans. The joys of having family over.
