Tony Romo gets a raise

Tony Romo, quarterback for the Cowboys, signed on for six more years worth $67.5 million.

The deal includes $30 million in guaranteed money in the first three years. He will receive an $11.5 million signing bonus and $4.5 million will be added to his 2007 deal to give him a $6 million base salary this season.

On a sports note, A-Rod is opting out of his contract with the New York Yankees. The opting out means that Texas Ranger's owner Tom Hicks won't have to pay about $21 million for A-Rod's contract.

I love sports, but throwing all these millions of dollars around while we have kids without health insurance and other problems in the state just seems kind of wrong. Either way Go Cowboys!
