    Tony Romo Wants A Record Breaking 10 Million To Stay At CBS




    I think he absolutely sucks as a broadcaster. He says the same phrase at least 5-6 times during the same game.

    So does this mean Aikman is getting at least 7-8 million a year?

    I remember Troy's first broadcast.... and he absolutely sucked. But now... I think Aikman is one of the best to be honest...

    Romo IMO doesn't have what it takes.

    You like to be told what’s going to happen before it happens? Do you also like to go to the movies when you already know the ending. F Romo

    nobody wants to live up to there contract, he signed a 3 year deal for 4 million a year and he wants 10 million a year for the last year of the contract even though he's already under contract

    i say fuk him he's not that good, nobody watches football to hear tony romo talk

    Romo, 38, signed a three-year deal with CBS before the 2017 NFL season that pays him $4 million a year

    It depends. If contract guaranteed ok but if they can fire you and not pay all of it then no reason a guy can’t demand more if he overperforming.

    Didn't take long for Romo to drop the humble act. People get a little too excited about Romo, he's okay, nothing spectacular.

    Wow... didn't know there were a lot of Tony Romo lovers here.

    This is funny in all aspects....

    Why did CBS position Romo with Nantz anyways??? You could of bumped Gannon with Nantz.

    In a way CBS asked for this to happen. I just don't know how you give Romo a position with Nantz with no broadcasting experience. I'm sure they wanted Nantz's experience to easy Tony into it... never did CBS think... well damn... Tony will ask for 10 million a year.

    It's kind of a joke to be honest... Romo reminds me of some punk kid who's in his 2nd year at broadcasting school... who thinks he's just that damn good. His voice gets all giggly at times... and it's obnoxious. Nantz and Romo aren't a good pairing.

    Hope CBS just fires him.

    I just think it's awfully steep to pay a color commentator 10 million a year. If he brings in 20 million a year in viewers.... ok. But, I never heard anyone say... which game is Romo announcing today??? Turn it on man!

    I like how he says things he shouldn't in the politically correct world.

    He disagrees with refs, coaches, rules,,, did I mention the refs??... Guy speaks his mind. It's refreshing.

    Could not disagree more. Romo one of the best & Aikmann one of the worst! Not even close between these two!

    He deserves it. He is the only commentator that actually calls the plays before they happen because he can read the defenses.
