Dirk relates to Romo

Tony Romo doesn't have to look too far for somebody who understands what he's going through. Mavericks forward Dirk Nowitzki knows all too well how it feels to be the star of a team that follows a spectacular regular season with a painful, premature playoff exit.

Dirk stuck around Dallas to pick up his MVP trophy and then got the heck out of the country. Dirk spent a few weeks last summer in the Australian Outback with mentor Holger Geschwinder, who isn't quite as easy on the eyes as Jessica Simpson.

What advice would Dirk give Romo on how to handle the devestating disappointment of playoff failure following such a fine regular season? Well, since the primary purpose of this post is to promote our Mavericks blog, you'll have to read Dirk's response there.

Mike Modano might have some pointers too. I realize hockey is low on the Dallas totem-pole, but the Stars have consistently struggled in the playoffs after having good regular season records. Hopefully all three teams will figure out how to succeed and get some future playoff victories en route to their respective championships.

Fortunately, I'm a Spurs fan, so I have no problem with Dirk and the Mavs' annual chokes.

Dirk just needs to take a romantic vacation to Cabo with David Hasselhoff...

Loose Romo..Definitely not a team leader nor a team player...He not into playing the game..He just wants to be a star..When quarterbacks yell at their own teammates, then it's time to pull them out of the game. Not anywhere near the class of Roger S.

T.O.'s right behind Romo. Is Romo a homo?

Rich has it right, Romo only wants to be a STAR! He is trying to position himself for the movies.
