OXNARD, California (105.3 THE FAN) - We've met "Arts-And-Crafty" Tony Romo. And on Thursday's first practice of Cowboys training camp, we'll reunite with Pro Bowl quarterback Tony Romo.
But in between, in the last few days, he's been "West Hollywood'' Romo. And maybe he's been "Mountain Fitness'' Tony.
Romo was among a handful of Cowboys who didn't arrive in Southern California via Tuesday's team flight. Instead, he arrived days earlier. One reason was to celebrate the 30th birthday of his brother-in-law, Chace Crawford, with a private "comedy roast'' featuring Romo, his wife Candice, and family and celebrity friends.
The other? Maybe to run up and down the mountainous terrain of the area, a fitness effort that served him well last year when he overcame back surgery to post perhaps his greatest season ever.

"(Romo) is a great player and has been for a long time,'' coach Jason Garrett said at Wednesday's camp-opening presser in Oxnard.

Assorted other Cowboys took different routes to Oxnard, apparently including Dez Bryant (who may have also engaged in special fitness training), Orlando Scandrick (who lives in LA) and Jeremy Mincey, whose "route'' is delayed while he attempts to renegotiate his contract.
