Dallas Cowboys' QB Tony Romo is going to miss four weeks because of a broken pinky on his throwing hand. Come on Tony! I understand you want an excuse to hang out with Jessica Simpson more (cause who wouldn't) but suck it up! Go get some game film of Brett Favre or Ben Roethlisberger and see what they do when they get injured. They play! Even Byron Leftwich has a better track record than this. If you really think about it though, this could be a good thing for the Cowboys. Their backup, Brad Johnson, has actually won a Super Bowl and may be the ingredient to get TO to shut his mouth and move the team back to the explosive run game they have. This is probably the best new possible for fantasy owners who have Marion Barber and/or Felix Jones. You all should be absolutely ecstatic!

A pinky! A f***ing pinky! If Big Ben only had a pinky problem he'd probably get on his knees and thank the football gods! This is pathetic TOny, just sad...Jessica...this makes Nick Lachey look like a damn american gladiator...
A pinky finger is integral in throwing the ball. I'd hardly call it a cop out. Obviously the esteemed blogger above has never attempted to throw a decent long ball without the use of a digit. Johnson will be a good fit for the run game, and yes he can actually throw the ball. What does suck is that my fantasy QB was Romo. Guess I'm going QB shopping, again...
You're right, it is an integral part of throwing a ball but that's not the point. To say that he is going to miss a month because of this is absolutely ridiculous. Numerous quarterbacks have played with broken fingers and have done just fine. Brett Favre broke his finger just a couple of seasons ago and never missed a game. I understand it hindering his playing ability but he should want to play and want to compete and not puss out.
