I dated a CFL football player once. His break up excuse was because "a girlfriend is too much of a distraction - I need to focus on football".

Lame. But anyways, it sounds like country singer Carrie Underwood heard the same words from Dallas Cowboy QB Tony Romo. In this week's Entertainment Weekly with Carrie on the cover, she says about Romo, "...point blank, he is all about football. I don't know if it's that I'm not quite his type or whatever, but I don't think he's at the point in his life where he would be willing to sacrifice football. He hated so much that people thought that he was paying more attention to me and that was causing him to not do well."

What is with that? Carrie could manage to juggle a fast-paced, pressured career in music, but Tony can't handle a relationship and his job at the same time? Maybe it's that multi-tasking thing - aren't women supposed to be better
at juggling more than one thing at once? According to this Wall Street Journal article, a 2003 survey by political scientists at Rutgers University found three-quarters of women think women are better at multitasking than men and one-third of men agreed.

Cowboys opponents should take that cue. If they want to find Romo's weakness, they should figure out how to distract him with something off the field. Find some girl to come forward and claim her child is Romo's or something...that would do it!
