Yes, you read that correctly. Tony Romo, the star quarterback turned star broadcaster, weighed in on the Bryce Harper sweepstakes last night. He told Harper directly (through Twitter) that the slugger will be “playing for the Texas Rangers opening day”. Romo also added a winking face emoji at the end of the tweet.
Well… looks like you’ll be playing for the Texas @Rangers opening day https://t.co/xVw1LDnm18
Two things here:
First, everything Tony Romo predicts comes true. At least, that’s the popular opinion based on his NFL broadcasting. If he can predict the outcome of a play before the ball is snapped, there’s no reason he can’t predict where a superstar MLB free agent will land.
