Poor Tony Romo: Cowboys-Redskins In Five GIFs
Washington 28, Dallas 18: This, I am convinced, is Tony Romo's favorite play. I think his palms get a little sweatier when he hears it called in. Look at the dedication. The grace. He wants to sell you that botched snap. He wants to sell it to you so...bad....
Tony Sparano's Exit Plays Out Like World's Saddest Horse Race
