Hi. I am Tony Romo. You just thought I let people down, what till you see Obamacare!

LOL!

NFL star: "Are you willing to spend $300 to sit for three hours on a plastic seat in the hope that you will feel better afterwards? Well ObamaCare has a deal for you!"

They need young people to sign up for Obamacare to pay for the old folks. If the young don’t sign up the whole Ponzi scheme fails. Hence this approach. I heard they also approached the NBA
