BY GERY WOELFEL Don't tell Tony Romo that Brett Favre should stay in retirement. Romo, the Dallas Cowboys pro bowl quarterback, believes Favre still has plenty in his tank to compete at a high level. "He's still a good quarterback,'' Romo said before the start of the Tony Romo Football camp in Burlington Tuesday. "When you get to his level, perfection is all that people expect. "So anything less almost becomes a bad year. "Tiger (Woods) hasn't won a major (this season); He's terrible all of a sudden. Well, is he really? Or is it that specific year, or that specific day he didn't play as well as in the past? "Talking to Brett, he just loves to play the game. I'm sure he was disappointed the way it was handled around here as I'm sure Green Bay was disappointed.'' Favre, who turns 40 on Oct. 10, has twice announced his retirement. But after retiring from Green Bay, he was traded to the New York Jets. Now, after retiring from the Jets after last season, Favre is seriously contemplating another return, most likely with the Minnesota Vikings. "If you're good enough to do it -- and obviously he is or otherwise teams wouldn't go after him,'' Romo said. "I mean that tells you a lot. "Obviously, they (other teams) think he did something right last year. I think they (the Vikings) become a very dangerous team if they get him -- even though they are already.'' While Favre could elevate the Vikings to a Super Bowl-caliber team, and be a potential roadblock for the Cowboys in their quest of a championship, Romo sees a silver lining in a possible Favre comeback. Quipped Romo: "It would take some media coverage off the Cowboys and that's a good thing.''
