So what am I supposed to do with all of this popcorn?
In case you missed it, the Dallas Cowboys lost another playoff game yesterday, this one to the New York Giants in Dallas , culminating in a weepy Terrell Owens sobbing through his press conference while doing something he’s never done.
Standing up for the quarterback. His quarterback.
Owens burst into tears while fielding a question about the criticism that is bound to fall on Tony Romo’s shoulders in the wake of his bye-week sojourn to Mexico with girlfriend Jessica Simpson.

Owens burst into tears while fielding a question about the criticism that is bound to fall on Tony Romo’s shoulders in the wake of his bye-week sojourn to Mexico with girlfriend Jessica Simpson.
"This is not about Tony,” Owens said. “You guys can point the finger at him, you can talk about the vacation, and if you do that, it's really unfair. It's really unfair. That's my teammate. That's my quarterback. You guys do that, it's not fair. We lost as a team. We lost as a team, man."
The sentiment may have been more genuine if it wasn’t expressed by a man that said Jeff Garcia was gay when they were teammates in San Francisco and threw Donovan McNabb under the bus following the Eagles loss in Super Bowl XXXIX.
“I’ve always had a good relationship with quarterbacks,” Owens stated at one point.
The homosexual Garcia and exhausted company-man McNabb may disagree.
T.O. apologists will say that this is a man that learned from his mistakes in San Francisco and Philly and is now a team player. T.O. haters will say that a leopard doesn’t change his spots.
In all honesty, the truth is probably somewhere in between.
Either way, the Cowboys have been eliminated, meaning Romo and coach Wade Phillips are both still winless in their post-season careers. And that Owens’ best chance at a championship may have already passed him by.
Now I can watch the Super Bowl without the potential of the Cowboys hoisting the Vince Lombardi trophy.
Maybe I’ll do so while eating a big bowl of popcorn.
