Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo has received lots of heat during his career for all his screw ups during the most important moments for the team. What’s often over-looked is how many time Romo has made amazing throws and remarkable plays to even get his team to the clutch moments. The team and fans saw exactly how important Romo was to the team after losing Romo twice to a broken collarbone and finishing the season with a 4-12 record. Romo has spent recent weeks waiting to see if surgery would be needed and he has finally made a decision.

This seems to be good news for Cowboys fans in my eyes. Romo is getting the collarbone fix for what he hopes is the last time. After suffering the same injury 3 times in five years, it’s definitely time for surgery.
