2 AnswersOther - Cars & Transportation8 years agoDo you think my friend is a good football prospect?
I go to a small school where we play 6-man football. My friend here is a fantastic player at this level (5'10 170 lbs) and has won many awards like being first team all-state on both sides of the ball. He was selected as the preseason offensive state MVP for our division. Judging from this and this highlight reel ( http://www.hudl.com/athlete/641824/samai-massaquoi ) do you think my friend can compete at the next level?
4 AnswersFootball (American)8 years agoQuestion about ligament tear in ankle or foot?
A guy at my school who has been known to lie is currently walking around on crutches because he claims that he "tore every ligament in his foot" in football practice when he fell and another player landed on his foot.
A. How many ligaments are in a human foot or ankle?
B. Is it possible to tear every ligament in your foot? Is it possible for a single injury?
5 AnswersInjuries8 years agoQuestion about ligament tear in ankle/foot?
So a guy at my school who has been known to lie says that he tore "every single ligament in his foot" in a football practice injury.
A: How many ligaments are in a human foot?
B: How is it possible/likely to tear every single one of them in a single injury?
Apparently, in football practice, he landed on it wrong and then a big guy fell on it making it worse.

8 AnswersBasketball8 years agoNFL: Does Tony Romo get too much hate? (LONG)?
Love him or hate him, Tony Romo has become the one topic that NFL fans can’t help but talk about. Everyone seems to have his or her opinion on Romo. Some say that he’s overrated, that he can’t perform in the clutch, and isn’t an elite quarterback. Others will say that Tony Romo has surpassed expectations and has become the best Cowboys quarterback of all-time.
So the real question is… Is the criticism warranted?
Here’s my take:
No, Tony Romo has not won a Super Bowl. Yes, Tony Romo has won only one playoff game in his career. Is it his fault?
Simply put, no. The NFL has quickly become a win-now league. That means that success is measured in Super Bowls and not ability. In which case, Tony Romo is having a very unsuccessful career. In the real world success isn’t measured by jewelry, but by positive production in an individual’s career and the achievement of their goals. In the real world Tony Romo is a great quarterback.
I'm sure you all know that the Dallas Cowboys have had 2 other incredible QBs that were fan favorites (unlike Romo). Let's compare them, shall we?
- In 12 NFL seasons Troy Aikman completed 61.5 percent of his passes for 32,942 yards. He threw for 165 touchdowns and 141 interceptions. His career passer rating was 81.6.
- In 11 NFL seasons Roger Staubach completed 57 percent of his passes for 22,700 yards. He threw for 153 touchdowns and 109 interceptions. He retired with an 83.4 career passer rating.
- In 9 NFL seasons, Romo has completed 64.5 percent of his passes for 20,834 yards. He’s thrown for 149 touchdowns and only 72 interceptions.
Romo has the highest quarterback rating of any these quarterbacks. That tells us that he is very efficient. I know what you’re thinking though, “If he’s so efficient, why does he throw so many interceptions?” The answer is that he doesn’t. The media hypes up every time Romo throws a pick and then blames the loss on him. Out of Romo, Aikman, and Staubach only Romo has a TD/INT ratio of 2:1.Tony Romo holds Career Cowboys records for the following: Games with 3-plus touchdown passes (24), games with 300-plus yards passing (32) and lowest career interception percentage (2.78 percent). You can say what you want to say about Romo. You can listen to whomever you trust. What I’m doing here is giving you guys the facts. Speaking of facts, consider this one: Tony “the choke artist” Romo has 13 fourth quarter comebacks and 14 game-winning drives. Romo also holds a 104.4 passer rating in the fourth quarter, a 99.8 passer rating when in the fourth within seven points, and a 116.7 rating in overtime.
So what's your take? Do Cowboys fans and others criticize Romo too much every time the Cowboys lose or the ball gets turned over? What's your opinion on Romo?
