MILWAUKEE -- CBS NFL analyst and former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo has been arrested on suspicion of operating a vehicle while under the influence.
According to the Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office's arrest report, Romo performed poorly on field sobriety tests after getting stopped while driving south on Interstate 43 on Thursday. Sheriff's officials said Romo was taken into custody, booked and released.
He has a court appearance set for Sept. 21.
Romo went to high school about 35 miles from Milwaukee in Burlington, Wisconsin.
The 46-year-old Romo has been the lead game analyst for CBS' NFL coverage since 2017 after making four Pro Bowl appearances during an NFL career that ran from 2004-16 and was spent entirely with Dallas.
CBS had no comment regarding the arrest.
Romo remains the Cowboys' franchise leader in career touchdown passes with 248. He held the franchise record for career passing yards (34,183) until Dak Prescott overtook him last season.
Trio capture WNBA event
CHICAGO -- Elena Delle Donne, Shakira Austin and high schooler Jezelle Banks led team Washington to the Shooting Stars championship at WNBA All-Star on Friday night.
The trio scored 31 points to edge Seattle's three in the finals, with Banks hitting two of the 4-point shots from just inside halfcourt to put the team over the top. Seattle had 24 points to finish as runner-up after missing all of its 4-point shots. This was the first year that the contest was conducted.
A skills competition was done in previous All-Star weekends.
The format was a two-round, timed shooting competition in which teams had 70 seconds to score as many points as possible from seven shooting locations around the court.
The competition featured shots ranging from a layup to the 4-pointer.
Kane going back home
CHICAGO -- When the Chicago Blackhawks selected Patrick Kane No. 1 overall in the 2007 draft, they counted on the forward, then just 18, to give their rebuilding team and its sputtering offense an immediate boost.
Fast-forward 19 years: The Blackhawks again hope that Kane, now 37 and entering his 20th NHL season, will do the same after signing the all-time scoring leader among U.S.-born players to a $16 million, two-year deal.
Kane said he feels strong three years after undergoing a major hip resurfacing surgery and rehabbing his way back for three solid seasons with the Detroit Red Wings.
Kane has 1,400 points in 1,369 career NHL games (508 goals and 892 assists). He cranked out 16 goals and 41 assists in 67 games last season for Detroit and says he's not slowing down.
