But he is so far superior than so many others. I think he deserves it. And I wasn't a Romo fan when he played.

I don’t think Mike meant he ain’t deserve. I think he’s saying NFL players should be making more in general, but I’m sure they’ll ask him to elaborate on it soon.

In the land of economics many need to learn about supply and demand. Tony Romo is by far the best at what he does, in a much more scarce profession.

And movie stars get paid more for acting like soldiers that real soldiers do. Tony will work for CBS to talk about football. Thomas works for the Saints to play football. CBS isn't taking Thomas' money to pay Romo. Thomas needs to learn when to keep his opinion to himself. A quote that has been applied to a number of people seems to apply here..."Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt."

I don't really like them and I don't know them.

One injury away from turning in applications like the rest of us.
