News: Tony Romo stood and watched when the Cowboys started practice Friday. The team still isn't saying whether Romo will play with a broken pinkie on his throwing hand. But the two-time Pro Bowl QB didn't do much when reporters were allowed to watch the early portion of the Cowboys' last practice before Sunday's game at St. Louis. Romo's right hand was wrapped, a fabric covering whatever protective device being used to apparently stabilize the pinkie, with only the tips of three fingers exposed.
