You might remember, back in February, when MJD told you about Cowboys coach Wade Phillips’ most attractive daughter. Well, now she’s got an acting career. It seems to be going well.
I had done minimal belly dancing prior to this. But I am a dancer - I’ve danced my whole life - I am pretty adept at learning different kinds of movement. … It was all pretty natural to me - I didn’t feel like it was a stretch for me to do that style of dance.
How about those Cowboys?
I watch every game! I mean, I watch every game, I read sports blogs, I go on dallascowboys.com all the time. I grew up with football. It becomes important when it’s not just a livelihood, but when your life depends on it - whether you’re going to move to a different city, or if you’re gonna get fired. … I’m really invested.
That’s right, fellers; she reads sports blogs. Step right up.
We support the Raptors’ Chris Bosh and his (or, more accurately, his handlers, and NBA.com’s) attempts to get himself voted on the NBA All-Star Team. Look what Gilbert hath wraught.
Apologies in advance for this item. You should know that, if you click on it, there will be a Britney Spears photo, the weekend box office receipts for Alvin and the Chipmunks, and the headline: Jamie Lynn’s baby-daddy is a ‘lying, cheating dog.’ Hey, it’s New Year’s Eve; who’s reading this anyway? On to the Tony Romo/Jessica Simpson news.
Although Patriots quarterback Tom Brady seems more the go-to man for football advice, not relationship advice (just ask Bridget Moynahan), Brady has reached out to Jessica Simpson’s new man, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, to warn him about bringing his girl to games. “After that debacle of a game with Jessica being flashed on the screens during every play, Tom told Tony to put a stop to allowing Jess to come to games. Think about it: How often do you see Gisele [Bundchen] cheering Tom on?” said a friend of Brady’s.
Frankly I get a kick out of the image of Brady and Romo talking to each other on the phone about their girlfriends. Are they lying on their respective beds, with stuffed animals all around, and a lot of open magazines? Is one of Romo’s magazines Tiger Beat?
Tiny tidbits and news niblets from the final week of the NFL season …
• It sure is nice seeing Kerry Collins back, isn’t it? Remember when Kerry Collins was a big controversial figure? He got DUIs before it was cool to get DUIs. Collins has been around longer than you realize; he actually took over for Frank Reich, for crying out loud. Vince Young should be fine for the playoff game next week, which is kind of a shame; it might have been fun to see Collins’ goofy arm hitch in the playoffs one more time. Not that we have much hope for the Titans anyway; when Kerry Collins is your savior, not even facing Norv Turner will be enough to keep you around long.
• Honestly, it really has been the worst sports year for Cleveland. It’s downright wrong; that city has been cursed with just enough hope to make the disappointments really hurt. But hey, look who got some minutes yesterday!
• No offense to Vikings fans, but we’re more excited to see the Redskins in the playoffs than the Vikes. Yep: We have Todd Collins fever. We bet they beat the Seahawks, by the way.
• Everyone in Detroit is chattering that Mike Martz is going to be fired. No Super Bowl losing coach has dropped as far as Martz since, who, Bill Callahan? It’s a shame Nebraska, just to be funny, can’t hire Martz as its next coach.
• Apparently Marv Levy is leaving Buffalo. That makes us extremely sad; we wanted him to be there until he was 103.
• The Buzzsaw finished 8-8. Mock us if you will, but we’ll absolutely take it. That’s the first non-losing season in a decade. Just in time for Leinart to return and screw it all up next year.
