Richie Whitt from the Dallas Observer has a fantastic blog called the Sportatorium. It has quickly become a staple of daily journey through the interwebs. Today, he poses a great question: Is Tony Romo better than Kurt Warner?
Whitt makes several interesting comparisons, but I think this is the money quote that should have Cowboy Nation concerned:
At this point I can’t decide whether Romo is calm and cool or aloof and disinterested. Is he a quarterback who embraces being a celebrity? Or a celebrity who dabbles in being a quarterback?
Read Whitt’s post. Comment. Argue. Discuss. Weep. Whatever floats your boat.

I assume we’re talking of current Kurt Warner who led his team to a playoff win instead of the 2 time league MVP Super Bowl winning MVP Kurt Warner?

Right. The current Kurt Warner vs. the current Tony Romo. When it comes to total body of work, there is no comparison between the two.

Well, the more I think about it, they are the same person just in different stages of life.
Similarities
1. Obscure quaterback making the big time
2. Very willing to help out public (i.e. tire change / Jesus builds playgrounds)
3. Injury prone
4. Sometimes caught trying to do too much for the team from their position
5. Always giving their best effort
6. Super Smoking hot GF/Wife
Differences
1. K-W is still playing
2. K-W makes his whole team better….especially Larry Fitzgerald who says he owes it all to K-W
3. Tony Romo plays for this guy
