Well, Tony Romo may or may not be the reason his team loses every game, but he sure does have a reputation. His critics (and everyone else) say that he can’t win a big game, and when it matters most, he will throw it to the other team. On Sunday night against the Packers, he did just that, and the Cowboys went home without a win.

The Atlanta Hawks twitter account is among the best in all of professional sports. Earlier this season, they stuck it to Darren Rovell, and now, they did a little trolling:

They have a point, as Al Horford has come up big in clutch moments for Atlanta this season. On November 29th, he burned the Mavericks with this shot:

Then, on Friday, the clutch gods were with Horford again, as he beat the Wizards at the buzzer:

I was in the building covering the game on Friday, and the shot was good, but his performance was better. Al Horford has played like an all-star this season, and the Hawks currently sit third in the Eastern Conference. Poor Tony Romo can’t seem to get any support–not even from his own coach.
