Numero Uno: Pardon the Ice Cream

Okay. Okay. I saw the “fat” Tony Romo photo.

And yes, we can see this with our bare naked eyes and have already read about it all over the Internet. The most important player on the Cowboys roster, playing the most important position in arguably of all sports, does look, um… a little fat.

Have no fear — the real Tony Romo is here. (Hey, I’m going for it. I’m in a good mood, okay?)

We can discuss this photo all day long but the reality is this: Tony Romo’s health is a concern, was a concern, and will always be a concern. This photo changes nothing, nor does it add anything.

For the Cowboys to burst the 4-12 ceiling with a repeat 12-4 type 2014 season, they’ll need Romo at his best, and that spells out a healthy Tony Romo.

Now, the executives around the Dallas Cowboys brass are all chipping in positive adjectives about Romo’s work ethic and health condition. That of course, changes when the pads are on and the heavy hitters on the other side of the line of scrimmage are lurking like sharks.

Luckily, and I mean thank heavens the football gods have spoken, the Dallas Cowboys own the best offensive line and supplemented the offense with some talented guy — who will supposedly get a Ring of Honor induction while in uniform — named Mr. Ezekiel Elliott.

Maybe Elliott can introduce Romo to the “crop top” look. Just hold the donuts fellas.
