The Story
- Brandon Jacobs has been the reliable running back that all teams need. Now meet the woman behind the man, Kim Jacobs.
Kim and Brandon first met at Auburn University. Sensing this was the real deal, she followed Brandon when he transferred to Southern Illinois University for one year, from which he was ultimately drafted by the Giants in April 2005. They were married shortly after, in July of 2005.
The couple had their first child, Brayden, on February 27, 2007. Of course, as Jacobs' jersey is #27. As a gesture to Kim during the season she was pregnant, Brandon placed the ball under his jersey after scoring a touchdown to show they were expecting. Sadly, he was flagged for a 15 yard unsportsmanlike penalty and the NFL (No Fun League) fined him $5,000. "It was worth every yard and every penny" said Brandon afterwards.
Brandon isn't the only one in the family with career aspirations. Kim has her Masters in early child development and would like to open a day care at some point in the future.

The Story
- Currently the New York Football Giants #3 receiver, Mario Manningham came into this year as a leading candidate to become the next big thing (read: Plaxico 2.0). Despite being surpassed in the depth charts by the salsa dancing Victor Cruz, Mario still seems to have his dating life in order.
Meet longtime girlfriend, Tiffany Hughley. Manningham has been dating Hughley since at least December, 2009. We believe the couple has a child together (though we know Manningham had a boy born in 2010). In various articles, Manningham has credited the birth of their son, Mario Jr., with helping him grow up on and off the field. In an article with the Star Ledger, Maningham said
“It made me change as a person and as a player. Now, I’ve got a person to take care of. “I’m hungrier. Not saying I wouldn’t be hungrier if I wouldn’t have had him, but it makes you want it more. I’m feeding for two now.
Although there is essentially no info about Tiffany specifically available, ironically, the girl of Plaxico 2.0 shares the same first name as Plax’s wife.

The Story
- Look, we're the first to admit it when we haave nothing to talk about in a post. But in this case....
... Yeah, we still got nothin.
There was a little buzz on the interwebs after last night's NFC Championship game when Amanda Tynes was seen on the post game show rushing to celebrate with Lawrence after kicking the Giants to Super Bowl XLVI. After some research, and a whole lot of dead ends, we have very, very little.
What we can officially say. is that Lawrence Tynes is married to Amanda Tynes. The couple has twin boys, Caleb and Jaden, who spent three weeks in the NICU after being born almost two full months prematurely on July 6, 2007.
Told you there wasn't much.
Interestingly enough about Lawrence, he's the first ever Scottish born player in NFL history. His father was a Navy SEAL stationed in Scotland, and his mother was a native of the country. Lawrence moved to the US at age 10 when he moved to Milton, FL.

The Story
- Justin Tuck met his future wife Lauran Williamson while attending the University of Notre Dame together. They dated through their entire time in college before getting engaged shortly after leaving school. The couple was married on April 12, 2008 back in Justin's hometown of Birmingham, Alabama.
Justin and Lauran Tuck have been lauded and honored for their various charitable endeavors. They recently partnered with JP Morgan Chase to donate $275,000 to victims of the recent Alabama tornadoes. The Tuck's also have their own charity, "R.U.S.H. for Literacy." The foundation's mission statement is:
Lauran & Justin Tuck founded Tuck's R.U.S.H. for Literacy to encourage children to READ, UNDERSTAND, SUCCEED and HOPE. Started in 2008, Tuck's R.U.S.H. for Literacy has been committed to raising funds to donate books and other reading materials to support children in the New York City and Central Alabama communities. By supporting the communities that have supported them, the Tucks hope to encourage children to embrace literacy.
The charity hosts an annual billiards tournament to raise funds ingeniously called "Tuck's Celebrity Billiards." Past participants have included stars such as Spike Lee, John Legend, Buddy Valastro (The Cake Boss), Big Daddy Kane and Earl the Pearl Monroe.
