The Dallas Cowboys’ talented trio of Tony Romo, Jason Witten and Terrell Owens appeared to have put their problems aside Sunday night in an impressive 20-8 win over the New York Giants. But both Romo and Witten were no-shows at Owens’ annual birthday party, which has turned into a celebrity fund-raiser in the Dallas area.
Cowboy officials wanted to paint a picture of team unity at this event and cited that both Romo and Witten were receiving treatment for injuries sustained in the game on Sunday as the reason for them not showing up at the charity event.
Cowboys LB Greg Ellis said it was important to send the message that “we are one team. There are not any problems. We are not a team divided and we are sticking together.”
The beneficiary of Owens’ fund-raiser was his Catch-A-Dream Foundation, which raises money to aid 81 families in the Dallas area for the holiday season.
