Romo takes some ribbing in Tahoe

NFL_romo1_250.jpgOur moles at the 20th Annual American Century Celebrity Golf Championships has been funneling to us some tidbits regarding the goings-on in a city in Nevada where the happens here/stays here rules don't apply.

On Wednesday night, several current and former players were in the lounge at Harrah's in South Lake Tahoe.  Former NFL standouts Richard Dent, Jonathan Ogden, and Marcus Allen were on the stage, along with a guy who is now bigger than most NFL players, Charles Barkley.

They spotted Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo in the crowd, and urged him to join them.

When he didn't, Dent and Allen instructed the lounge singer to belt out Jessie's Girl, in honor of Romo's recent breakup with singer Jessica Simpson.

    God almighty, is anyone else about done with the mindless Romo stories? Isn't there anything else of note worth reporting on?

    What a joke this place has become

    ♪ Jessie's got himself a girl and I want to make her mine

    ♪ And she's watchin' him with those eyes!

    ♪ Yeah he's holding her in his arms late late at night

    ♪ You know I wish that I had Jessie's Girl!
    ♪ I wish that I had Jessie's Girl!
    ♪ Where can I find a woman like that?!.......

    I doubt very much if Tony Romo will show his face in that particular lounge again! LOL!

    SaintsBucsPanthersSUKK - the song thing you're doing wasn't funny the first time. Assuming you're in driving distance of your favorite team's home city, try going into Atlanta and see how your "comedy stylings" go over there. If you live through it, let's us know how it went when you get out of the ICU unit.

    Ha! That's a good one.

  9. JBell13 says: July 17, 2009 11:28 AM

    That would be funny if the Song was called "Tony's Girl", but it wasn't. Jome kinda makes no sense, but, then, what would you expect from a bunch of rock heads.

    I still admit I would destroy Jessica Simpson, I mean I would destroy her.

    I don't care if she has gotten fat.

    Destroy!!!

  14. killachap says: July 17, 2009 11:46 AM

    Who gives a damn? As a Cowboys fan I am sick and tired of hearing about nonsense articles or "news" about Tony Romo and Jessica Simpson or anything. Why don't you guys go harass Hank Basket who just married a blonde bimbo who's only talents are taking her clothes off. Oh wait, thats right, Hank Basket is irrelevant to anything that has to do with football.

  15. Smush Rodrigez says: July 17, 2009 11:54 AM

    I am going to have to agree with east69st... The song thing = not funny.

    I also have to agree with strabo. One of the reasons that I dislike guys like Favre and Romo so much is the constant media attention on them. The reason I dislike the Mannings so much is the constant commercials and the fawning over the Manning family by the announcers. They have each won one superbowl guys (Eli & Big Bro) - lets not annoint them anything just yet.

    Also, why do people give Romo a hard time about playing golf but not the Manning's (mostly Peyton) for being in 50 commercials. In anticipation of - he won a SB.... He has won one but he is an underachiever. Big Time.

    east96st - Don't really see how typing in a comments section on a website over the internet translates into some sort of stand-up comedy routine. I've always experienced sweet southern hospitality when down that way, even had several Georgia peaches. When you use the term "ICU" there's no need to type unit afterwards. It is redundant, a part of the abbreviation. Now get back to "work".

  17. Agent Michael Scarn says: July 17, 2009 12:10 PM

    I would also have to agree the whole SaintsBucsPanthersSUKK song thing is getting pretty old. Just give it up, buddy

  18. Snarky Snide Sniper says: July 17, 2009 12:20 PM

    1. I happen to like the songs (it's a nice change from the usual snide snarky quippy b1tchery on this site--my own included).

    2. Richard Dent should be home drafting a HOF acceptance speech right now (surprise--media morons fail to get it right once again!)

    3. I would destroy Jessica Simpson, too. But only after I had--literally--destroyed her. Granny pants, front-butt and all...I'm sick like that.

    4. The song "Jessie's girl" actually makes sense here if you regard Romo as a girl.

    Which I do.

    Because he is.

  19. JustinG says: July 17, 2009 12:25 PM

    LOL... Owned.

  20. SaintsBucsPanthersSUKK says: July 17, 2009 12:44 PM

    When I sing, I sing from the soul. Give it up? No dice! Unless M.F. (ha ha M.F.!!!) restores the ratings system and it rains "1's" on my tundra. It all rests on Florio's shoulders.

  21. Marty says: July 17, 2009 12:49 PM

    Wouldnt it make more sense to request one of Jessica Simpsons songs??

  22. Route36West says: July 17, 2009 12:54 PM

    That is the 1st thing i ever read on this site that actually made me laugh out loud ( probly cause Florio wasn't making the joke he was just reporting on in) I love it tho it sounds like something my friends would do " Oh ok you don't want to get on stage with us fine. Then embarrass his ass infront of everybody" You Gotta love it.

  23. Route36West says: July 17, 2009 12:57 PM

    JBell13 _ I think its more like Jesse in the song is Jessica Simpson and Jesse's Girl is Tony Romo. Pretty much saying Jessica was the man of the relationship like its been reported for monthes that Romo follows her across the country like a lil puppy dog.

  24. murray22 says: July 17, 2009 1:05 PM

    Romo is the poor man's Favre. He's a dumbass like Favre, but with a weaker arm. Favre was actually a better leader than Romo. Romo just keeps that stupid grin on his face whenever he fumbles or throws a pick. I hope Romo stays in Dallas for the next 10 years. He's the guy that can't win. It has nothing to do with Jessica Simpson. The Cowboys will never win the Super Bowl with Romo.

    Go Pack!

    The point, which you so clearly missed, is the song crap isn't funny, witty, original, nor bright. I doubt, based on the stupidity of your posts, you could get laid anywhere where a woman aspires to live in more than a trailer.

  26. SaintsBucsPanthersSUKK says: July 17, 2009 3:00 PM

    east96st- Whether you think something is funny, witty, original, or bright doesn't matter, just like your existence. Enjoy your local red light district this weekend.

  27. EskinSux says: July 17, 2009 3:06 PM

    So.....Stupid posts on PFT equals out to not getting laid? When did this happen?

    ♪ Romo was a choke
    ♪ Yeah I know he's choked a lot of times
    ♪ And nothings gonna change, ain't hard to define
    ♪ He's a crappy quarterback and he's never gonna shine

    ♪ And he's fumbling all those snaps!
    ♪ And he's losing 44-6, I just know it!
    ♪ Yeah he's collapsing in the shower late late at night

    ♪ You know he wishes for a playoff win!
    ♪ He wishes for a playoff win!
    ♪ How can I find a superbowl ring?!.......

  29. Jackal138 says: July 17, 2009 3:14 PM

    And I don't care if any of you lamers find MY song funny (props to SaintsBucsPanthers! I laughed my ass off) - since most of you Cowboys fans laugh at Larry the Cable Guy, and East96st wets his panties when Eli gets compared to a downs syndrome baby.

  30. east96st says: July 17, 2009 6:39 PM

    Jackal138 - You wouldn't last five minutes in NYC. That said, only an absolutely immature moron with the IQ of a squirrel would ever think that down syndrome is funny. Here's hoping in the unlikely event that you ever move out of your mommy's basement and get married that you don't find out the hard way just how heartbreaking down syndrome is for the parents. But, if it does happen, well, as they say - couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

    As for SBP, obviously you're a suburban loser who thinks malls are "cool", Manhattan doesn't have a "red light district" and I'm married with three kids, all of whom are smarter, more mature, and have much brighter futures than you.

  31. Jackal138 says: July 17, 2009 7:03 PM

    Down's Syndrome isn't funny. Neither is cancer, so I'm sure you got just as upset when T.O. and Plaxico were accused of being cancers to their team on national media, right? Because Cancer breaks up families, it wastes otherwise vital people to nothing, and kills millions annually?

    Oh, but that argument doesn't apply when you're the PC police. Gotcha.

  32. Jackal138 says: July 17, 2009 7:29 PM

    EskinSux - Haven't you heard? Anyone who's ever had anything disparaging to say about anything ever on the internet? Virgin living in his mother's basement. It's really weird how that works.

  33. SaintsBucsPanthersSUKK says: July 17, 2009 8:01 PM

    Sounds like this here "east96st" be plum loco, Clarence! Married with three kids?!?! No wonder you're so wound up, CityBoy! I'd worry about your wife's happiness, but her boyfriend gives her what she needs.

  34. Smush Rodrigez says: July 17, 2009 8:57 PM

    East96st is my Dad. I am the 4th kid he doesn't talk about cause I am an Eagles fan. And he hates it when I sing.... Fly Eagles Fly...
