The Story
- UPDATE: 11-11-2011: As a cheerleader, it's the job of Bills WR David Nelson's girlfriend, Kelsi Reich, to root for the Cowboys. Normally, that is easy. Cheer when the Cowboys score, don't cheer when the other team scores. Pretty hard to mess up. Except, that is, when your boyfriend plays for the other team. Based on recent comments by David, it sounds like he might have something in store if he does score - especially since everyone in the media knows about their relationship and the cameras will surely be rolling. Says David, "If I'm in the area where she is I'm sure I’ll have something planned for that, but I also don’t want to get her in too much trouble”.
In addition, when questioned about whether this surprise might include a marriage proposal, Nelson said, “I can honestly tell you 100 percent it will not be a proposal. Been there and done that”. Too bad, especially since it's quite possible that, given her admitted strong faith in God, the couple is waiting until marriage - or as I like to call it, pulling a Phil and Tiffany Rivers.
*****************
- Meet Kelsi Reich, a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader, and David Nelson's girlfriend.
When David Nelson came out of Florida, he went through a Pro Day, where he garnered interest from a number of teams, including the Dallas Cowboys. David was eventually signed by Buffalo as an undrafted rookie free agent, which actually turned out to be a blessing as the couple wouldn't have to work around the No Fraternization rule between the Cowboys cheerleaders and players.
Kelsi's bio paints the picture of a woman with extremely strong faith. Her favorite quote is from Proverbs 3:5-6, and her lifelong goal is: To raise a beautiful and healthy family with a wonderful husband that loves the lord." If you're ever looking for a bible passage, Kelsi's twitter feed is a great place to get them, as her timeline is filled with what's seemingly a daily quote.
David and Kelsi are both from the Dallas-Forth Worth area. Kelsi makes no bones about it that while she roots for David, when the Cowboys and Bills meet up, she will root for her hometown 'Boys. We'll see how that plays out this Sunday when Dallas and Buffalo collide in Dallas.

The Story
- So the quick and easy stuff first. Stevie Johnson has been with his wife Britney since high school. In an article on ESPN.com, his college position coach recalled that Johnson really struggled with his transition from San Francisco to the University of Kentucky as he was miserable without Britney by his side. She ultimately moved to be with Stevie, and his coach credits this to helping him focus on the field. His coach Joker Phillips describes Stevie,
"He's a big-time family guy. He loves his daughter, loves his wife. From the day he got here, all he talked about was getting his [future] wife out here with him."
The couple now has two children; daughter Miyah, born in 2007 and son Steve III, born in 2009.
Now for the cool stuff, and why we originally found out about Britney. At Stevie's 25th birthday party, he was surprised by his wife with a butt shaped cake. Take a look at the evidence for yourself to the right.
Additionally, if we're guessing men, appears that Stevie is a man who pays up his bets when losing to his wife at Words With Friends. Tweets @StevieJohnson13: "My Wife is the most beautiful woman in the world and she loves chocolate ice cream and beating me in Words with Friends. #uHappynow ;-)"
Um, yes. Yes we are I think.
The Story
- UPDATE: 11-04-2011: The NY Times published an article that exposed Ryan Fitzpatrick as an anomaly in the NFL. No, not because he
can actually read went to Harvard, but because unlike basically anyone else in the NFL, Fitzpatrick wears his wedding ring entirely exposed while playing. Check the photo to the right. According to Fitzpatrick, the ring has never come off during play and has never even come loose. Also broken in the same NY Times article was that Ryan Fitzpatrick not only purchased the engagement ring for his girlfriend from their shared checking account but he also proposed to his future wife, Liza Barber, while at a McDonald's. Yup, McDonalds. Fitzpatrick had this to say about it, "I asked her when she was between her third and fourth Chicken McNugget. She had sweet and sour all over her face."
- Time Together: Ryan and Liza began dating during his junior year at Harvard after knowing one another for a couple of years. They were married in 2006, a year after All-American soccer player Liza graduated from Harvard as well. They have three children, eldest born in June of 2006, and the youngest born in March of 2011. Ryan clearly envies a fellow AFC East QB, naming his oldest son Brady.
The family lives in the Buffalo area year round.
- Quote: In an interview with the Harvard Crimson, Ryan discussed Liza:
“I have to admit, the girl I left Harvard with was better than the degree. Liza has been an amazing wife and someone I have been able to share this whole experience with from the very beginning. It is easy for me to stay grounded, because I have a wife that reminds me daily that she is the only college All-American in the household.”
