Have fun getting past the Cowboys line, and then CATCHING Romo.
Newman
"Basically what it boils down to is you've got to watch what you say. Your mouth can't write checks that your (butt) can't cash. That's what it comes down to," said Newman, who didn't rule out a late hit on Kitna to get his message across. "Everybody's going to see those quotes. He better just hope I don't blitz off the edge because I've got 15, 25, 30 (thousand dollars), however much it would be for a fine. I've got that much for one fine. Revenge will be sweet definitely."
Honestly, probably the dumbest thing I've heard someone say in the last few years.
I hope he follows through with it. This way, when the Lions retaliate and take out Romo's knees, you Cowboy fans will know who to blame.
Have fun getting past the Cowboys line, and then CATCHING Romo.
If Jon Kitna wasn't a who was talking while on a 2-14 team, none of this would be a problem. The guy said some pretty harsh stuff about Bradie James and he deserves whatever is coming to him in fair play. The cheap shot crap is ing stupid tho.
Yeah, because Romo never scrambles.
Publicly threatening a cheap shot should itself draw Newman a fine, and an earful from Wade Phillips.
Posting a 41-7 whipping on the Lions would say all that needs to be said.
Agreed.
I like Newman but dude needs to let his play do the talking.
the cowboys seem way too focused on this kitna stuff, and detroit is desperate for a win. i smell upset.

IRVING, Texas -- Dallas Cowboys cornerback Terence Newman has been put on notice by the NFL after indicating his desire for revenge on Detroit quarterback Jon Kitna.
Posted on Newman's locker Thursday was a letter he received from the NFL after making comments about Kitna during a satellite radio interview. Newman refused comment to reporters when he walked through the locker room.
"Be advised that your comments will now compel us to carefully monitor your activities in this weekend's Cowboys-Lions game," read part of the letter signed by Ray Anderson, NFL executive vice president for football operations. "As you know, flagrant fouls may subject a player not only to fines, but to suspension as well. So conduct yourself accordingly."
Kitna threw four touchdown passes in the regular-season finale in Dallas last year to end a 3-13 season for Detroit. In an interview the following week with a radio station in Seattle, where the Cowboys had to go for the playoffs, Kitna called out the Dallas defense, specifically linebacker Bradie James.
The Cowboys (11-1), who have already clinched another playoff spot this season, play at Detroit on Sunday. Kitna's bulletin-board remarks from January have been widely discussed.
While Newman hasn't spoken to local media this week, he issued what amounted to a warning for Kitna during an interview Tuesday on Sirius NFL Radio.
"Basically what it boils down to is you've got to watch what you say. Your mouth can't write checks that your [expletive] can't cash. That's what it comes down to," Newman said. "Everybody's going to see those quotes. He better just hope I don't blitz off the edge, because I've got 15, 25, 30 [thousand dollars], however much it would be for a fine. I've got that much for one fine. Revenge will be sweet definitely."
In the NFL letter to Newman, Anderson wrote those comments were 'thoughtless and irresponsible" and "contrary to all the NFL stands for."
On Monday, when the Cowboys returned to practice from a three-day weekend following their victory over Green Bay, James was already talking about facing Kitna and the Lions.
"It has been circled on my calendar the whole year, and here we are and I'm looking forward to it," James said. "Y'all can ask me about Jon Kitna every day from here on out the rest of my life and I will get fired up. ... He talked like we weren't ever going to play them again. We're going to be ready."
I do not condone cheap shots in any way shape or form nor am I defending what Newman said but Kitna can't spout off then expect no response.

It will be great when Newman shows blitz and never comes, and Kitna throws another one of his famous "not his fault" INTs as a result.
This is a perfect game plan for a puss like Kitna!
PS: Kitna went on the radio and said he was "just kidding" about his comments about James and Newman last year. Who's the Vag now?
I'm sure Terrence will be just as happy standing on the star in the end zone following a returned pick.
But yeah, no cheap shots... just kick their ass.
Stupid for Newman to say. If you want to hit someone do it don't run your mouth.
This is even dumber than what Newman said....
Agreed.![]()
Especially when what Kitna said, for the most part, was true.
Kitna lies all the time that's what his problem is. just this year he said the lions were a playoff 10,11 win team.![]()
Lions upset. Kitna throws three touchdowns to Newman covered players.
You def aren't referring to the "10 wins" prediction right?![]()
And the passes were to Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny & Tooth Fairy???![]()
Holy . A Dio sighting... even though I saw him drive right in front of me one afternoon at Wurzbach and Bab .
No, to the part where he said James was lost on the field and they could throw on Newman, which they did. Repeatedly.
No one is disputing the truth of the remarks....Kitna torched the Cowboys last year. So because it was true, the Cowboys players can't say anything at all about it?
IMO, its a matter of good sportsmanship and none was shown here by either side. Then again, I understand that the idea of good sportsmanship is a lost concept these days to most players and fans.
Just my .02.
