Here’s a nominee for Sports Quote of the Year (which should be an award) courtesy of Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, who spoke about the possibility of injured quarterback Tony Romo going on injured reserve (via the Star-Telegram) during a radio show:

“I don’t want to rule out anything. I don’t know that anybody is qualified to do that. Medicine basically gives you estimates and guidelines, and I’m not trying to be vague here, but there’s no need to rule out anything. We don’t have a situation on the 53, this isn’t an active roster day-game situation. He won’t be active, and we don’t have anybody valuable enough to take up that last spot to give us the opportunity to see how he does. There’s just not enough value there realistically to bring someone else in. That’s the deciding factor. “You don’t have to spend a lot of time going over and kind of circumcising the mosquito. You don’t have to do that over there on him because you look back over on the other side that caused you to make the decision, and there’s nobody good enough to take that spot to give you a chance for that if he can come back.”

What’s that now? “Circumcising the mosquito”!? Is that some kind of funny way of saying not to nit pick? That’s seriously bizarre and hilarious and I have no idea what it means.

Here’s what’s even better about it — it’s not the first time Jones has used the expression. Here’s what former NFL cornerback Domonique Foxworth tweeted:

He used that line in negotiations when we got too deep into the weeds for his taste https://t.co/jDeyD5rlK2 — Domonique Foxworth (@Foxworth24) September 6, 2016
