Tony Choko

Tony, Tony, Tony, what has happened? Things were going so well for you. During the season you beat out veteran QB Drew Bledsoe as the starter for the Cowboys. And you know what, you played great, and you managed to get voted into the Pro-Bowl. Many thought it was ridiculous that you did, but hey, let 'em talk, you got in. Also, throughout the season it's been rumored that you've been dating Jessica Simpson and Carrie Underwood . You were on top of the world there for a bit. Things came crashing down though recently. On Saturday, January 6th, 2007, you made a terrible error. One of those, "I immediatly regret what I just did" type of things. With just over a minute left in your playoff game against Seattle, your Cowboys were down 20-21. They were about to try a 19 yard field goal to go up by two points and would likely go on to win the game. It was just a chip shot. Easy. Things looked good. But you, Tony Romo, were responsible for holding that ball for the kicker to make the field goal. And when the center delivered the ball to you, you fumbled with it. It was like a wet bar of soap in your hands. The kicker wasn't able to kick it, and when you realized what was happening, you took off for the end zone to try and score a touchdown. And you

almost made it. You could have been the hero. But, unfortunately for you, Tony, Jordan Babineaux tackled you on the two yard line and the rest is history. The Cowboys are out of the playoffs, and you are destined to have youtube videos made of you titled, "Tony Romo Chokes."

Here's a couple more articles on what happened.
