i was 14 drinks deep by the end of it. i was watching it from a cowboys bar in NJ with my brother and friends and we stayed out until like 1:30
 
I get up for work at 4am. When the Giants went up by 10 the second time I went to brush my teeth and head to bed. That's when Romo drove the length of the field the first time. Had to stay up after that to finish it.
 
Never flinched. I took my lunch break at work to watch the last 5 minutes of the game. Another guy made a big show of walking off whenever the Giants broke that one big run. I pretty much knew if we got the ball in Romo's hands we had a chance.
 
Watched all the way through. Thought the game was over after Mincey's penalty, but I kept the game on. Once we got the ball back I knew Tony was going to come through.
 
Can't help it I'm a glutton. Besides, if it wasn't a TD then Romo was going to have a minute left to score.

The extra 40 made it so he didn't have to even spike the football, but I was anticipating deep middle shots and several spikes.
 
So, what I'm seeing is that Rev and Bipo are the only fake fans on the board. Good to know.
 
I can't make myself turn the game off, I think it would just piss me off more.
 
I went to bed at halftime but that was only because I had to get up really early. I should have just stayed up anyway because I ended up waking up at 1am and decided to check the score and then ended up spending the next hour watching highlights and reading recaps.
 
I didn't turn it off. I was surprisingly optimistic and felt like we were going to win. Romo and Garrett did a great job of let things play out and you could tell they knew they were the better team...and would win.

Who turns a one score game off with over 2 minutes left in the game?

Well to be honest we shouldn't have had the chance if the Giants were at least halfway competent.

The Giants wouldn't have had a chance but for the Cowboys gifts so it all evens out.

Still would have had the ball down by 6 with Romo throwing. Not like they could run the clock out.

I don't see how you could give up on this team given Romo's 4th quarter record. Unless it is a blowout I always feel like we can come back. As we saw, even if you are down 2 scores Romo can put up 14 points like nothing.

That's assuming it was only a field goal and they were moving the ball at will on us on that drive. I was looking t it as a time problem not a problem scoring.

I'm sure we have all done it at one time or another. If not with the cowboys then some other team.

Yeah I wouldn't be surprised if Romo holds the record for comeback wins.

The record for who, the team? If so, I think he does. But if you're talking NFL history, he's down the list a ways. I believe he's around 4th or 5th now for active QBs, but still well behind the lead. And there are retired guys well ahead of him, too. Guys like Elway, Montana, Favre, etc...

He's tied for 4th among active QBs, 12th overall. Right behind Eli Manning. :art
