All Grown Men Cry

There's many post-game interviews that coaches and players do that leave an imprint in my mind. Jim Mora's "playoff's" , Mike Gundy's "I'm a man, I'm 40", just to name two. But there's one that is so heartfelt that it leaves me with a smile and a laugh every time I see it. I'll give you a prelude as to what happened before and during the game.

Tony Romo took a trip to Mexico the week prior to the game with girlfriend Jessica Simpson. The media was all over it, that this trip would cause a loss in the divisional playoff game against the soon-to-be NFL champions, New York Giants. Maybe they were right. The Dallas Cowboys, led by the arm of Tony Romo and the hands of Terrell Owens, had one last chance with :09 seconds left to score 6 points and win the game, being down 21 to 17. The result: an interception thrown into the hands of R.W. McQuarters to end the game and make history. It would be the first time in 20 years that the NFC's #1 seed would lose in the divisional round. Sure, there was plenty of emotion built up after losing the game at home, and end the game on an interception.

By the way, the answer to the trivia question about Brett Favre, is that his last NFL pass attempt for the now retired #4 was put into the arms of the opposite team. An interception. Look it up.

Well, after the storied week before the game and then the game itself, Terrell Owens had plenty to release emotionally. The end result: one of the greatest displays of how much a wide receiver loves the quarterback that throws him passes. Enjoy it. I sure did. And I will again, and again. So much that I had to share it with you.
