Romanowski nearly cries on witness stand
http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2005/03/08/state/n160709S35.DTL

Retired Raiders linebacker Bill Romanowski nearly came to tears on the witness stand Tuesday as he explained the difficulty of being a family man and somebody who plays a "violent, violent game."

He said he will soon publish "Romo: My Jekyll and Hyde Life" which speaks of him being a "mild-mannered guy off the field and you play this violent sport with a lot of hitting out on the football field."
...

After he regained his composure in the courtroom, Romanowski said Williams' helmet came off "as I connected with a punch."


He later lost his composure again, beginning to cry as he recounted his freshman year at Boston College struggling to make the starting lineup and how it was his dream to get a college scholarship.


"Here I am crying in front of you guys," he testified as he wiped away a tear.


Boo fucking hoo.
