08:04 AM ET 04.19 | Tony Romo appears intent upon putting together some of the most substantive workouts the lockout has seen. The Cowboys quarterback is actively trying to round up players for full-team workouts. And so far, his leadership is getting rave reviews. "Tony is doing a good job leading that up," tight end Jason Witten said at the Taste of the NFL charity event Sunday night. "It's been an important part of what we're doing." Witten said that along with Romo, veterans like himself and DeMarcus Ware are also making calls to teammates to help organize potential workouts. The lockout prevents contact between players and coaches, so teammates must plan with each other to work out together in the offseason.

Maybe they should wait until they actually have well attended, meaningful , workouts before they write these feel good stories.
Right now it is just an exercise in phone etiquette.

too little too late for Tony, the guy is a loser. Its more important to him that he stay relevant on TMZ rather than in the NFL.

If they thought about it they could pick up a sponsor to pay the tab. That would make some owners start to rethink things.

and then the owners could make the players rethink things by using replacements. The players are in no position to play hard ball with the owners. they need them more than the owners need the players.

Y'know, some enterprising fellow could make that work. Get some sports equipment company to pay you a pile of money. You rent the field and arrange for TV coverage. They put their signs all over the field.
Have your people talk to Tony's people and set up a meeting.

In the long run, they need each other. The TV revenue contract has to be payed back if there are no games. I'm not sure if "replacement players" count as games from that standpoint. Without the real players, the revenue dries up quickly and the value of the team drops. Some teams still have to pay the mortgage on the stadiums.

I could probably swing the equipment and the field rental for a couple months, but there's no way I could afford to fight off the lawyers JJ would send.
