Yep... it happened again.
Sports fans can get intense when it comes to their favorite teams, and none more so than football fans. Here’s a video I came across on youtube of a father and son, both Cowboys fans, who have had enough of Tony Romo‘s costly mistakes. The father somehow thinks this is a good idea. Watch:
That kid can’t be older than 8, and that devilish giggle from him once the jersey caught fire scares me. When I was that age I was taught that playing with matches was bad, but that’s neither here nor there.
Cowboys fans have been on an emotional roller coaster with Romo so far this season. Week 1 Romo took most of the blame for losing to the Jets; weeks 2 & 3 he’s the hero for winning games with fractured ribs and week 4 he’s again the villain for throwing three second half interceptions to the Lions, 2 returned for touchdowns.
At some point though you have to get a grip. You can do a lot worse than Tony Romo and his 42-27 win/loss as starting QB. Just sayin’.

Is Romo getting paid under the table based on the point spred? This shirt burning is basically symbolic of the Cowboys season – they will go down in flames. I just don’t see any consistency with the Cowboys. This is definitely not your father’s Cowboy team.
