Description
Tony Romo, the Dallas Cowboys' celebrated quarterback, has had a career with more ups and downs than most. After not being drafted into the National Football League and then riding the bench for more than three years, he burst onto the pro football scene in 2006 with victory after victory. His dramatic rise was mirrored by a dramatic fall--the Bobble, a fumbled field goal snap, made him the butt of many jokes. But he fought back repeatedly with success on and off the football field. His super-celebrity status as one of America's most eligible bachelors does not hide his small-town roots and closeness with his remarkable family. His Hispanic heritage, his winning personality, and his extraordinary athletic ability have made him one of the most popular and visible football superstars. Read in Tony Romo about this player's quest for greatness and a Super Bowl ring.
