Romo's American Idol audition

May 12, 2008

Here's the video of Cowboy Quarterback Tony Romo attempting to sing the seventh-inning stretch at a recent Chicago Cubs baseball game.

And to think just a couple of months ago I was a regular Romo-sexual.

I'll just say the guy is no Harry Caray. He might have committed Harry Caray by trying to belt out the lyrics, but that's about it.

When I saw the Cubs play the Dodgers two years ago I was treated by the performance of the one and only Tommy Lasorda. He tried and he passed. He did get a couple of boos -- not as many as Romo -- but he did the song some justice.

I still remember that crazy pot Ozzy Osbourne completely screwing the song up about three years ago. Its a perfect example of what should be run for a kids staying off drugs commercial.

I really liked the ending of the performance when it appears he's actually trying to audition for American Idol.

He should stick to dating hot chicks, gambling, playing quarterback and starring in Diet Pepsi Max commercials.

Or maybe he should try that stuff in Arlington. It might actually get people to go the Rangers games.
