Game of Choke: who shall reign supreme?

This weekend, football fans have the pleasure of watching two of the greatest playoff chokers in recent memory play each other: Tony 'Fugly Beret' Romo (Dallas) vs. Brett 'Retire?' Favre (Minnesota). Favre brings decades -- literally decades -- of choking experience with him, but Romo has been the most consistent for choking late in recent years. The question is: who will choke and lose?

I do have to say that the Viking losses in December were less about Favre choking (unlike his time with the Jets) than the rest of the team laying down and almost dying at times -- karma at its finest. However, I have faith that his experience with choking will serve him well here.
