description: Bill Romanowski is probably the only NFL player who has been repeatedly compared unfavorably to Saddam Hussein. Widely acknowledged to be the dirtiest player in football Romo has been fined hundreds of thousands of dollars for unsportsmanlike conduct. Yet off the field this giant hulk instantaneously changes from hit man into family man gently raising two kids with his beloved wife. Romo is an attempt to reconcile these Jekyll-and-Hyde shifts. Romanowski achieves this Herculean task not by claiming that his 34 concussions affected his behavior but by admitting his use of chemical performance enhancers. His revelations about NFL drug abuse will shock fans and make him more enemies -- if that's possible. Bone-crushing honesty.
