This is not a drill. Injured Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo and girlfriend Candice Crawford are actually engaged. The way you know is that big shiny rock on the third finger of her left hand cannot be mistaken for a cocktail ring.
A year ago, the blogosphere was pulled offside by an ambiguous-looking ring Candice wore on the sidelines in her job as a sports reporter for "CW33" KDAF-TV (Channel 33).
But the new sparkler is the real deal. It features a square, radiant-cut diamond that our local expert guesstimates is well north of five carats. It sits atop a split shank band with two rows of micro-set diamonds. The ring and the setting are either platinum or white gold.
"It's probably platinum," the jeweler says. "If he's cheap, it's white gold."
It would be tacky to mention that it's been just five weeks since Romo's former inamorata Jessica Simpson got engaged to former NFL player Eric Johnson, so we won't.
Romo kept a lower profile with Crawford. But Thursday was her 24th birthday and he proposed while dining with her and her family at Five Sixty atop Reunion Tower.
