Blair Walsh’s girlfriend Sarah Chafee is a a TV news reporter in Alabama. The Twitter defense that she mounted for her husband’s field goal miss comes across as a bit empty. As a TV reporter, she would likely be precisely the person who would be nailing the local team kicker on TV for missing such a field goal. Sarah Chafee took to Twitter late Sunday night to defend her husband after he missed a 27 yard chip shot field goal to win the Vikings playoff…
Brian Robison’s wife Jayme Robison was at one time a professional barrel racer, which I believe we’ve run across once before on playerwives, but I can’t recall who it was. Anyway, since you probably have no idea what barrel racing is: it’s when you ride a horse as fast as you can through a course made up of barrels. It’s pretty cool, and it’s way more interesting than dressage. There’s no jumps involved, but you…
Continuing the longstanding tradition of athletes meeting their wives in college, Chad Greenway’s wife Jennifer Capista met him at the University of Iowa. I think part of this trend comes from young women recognizing the value of an up-and-coming athlete as he’s about to go pro, though this is certainly not the rule, and a lot of times the ladies don’t even know they’re into sports for weeks or even months. Anyway, Jennifer herself was…
UPDATE: 12/18/2012: Hey, remember when we told you on December 4th that this couple moves thier relationship quickly? Yeah,… we were right. On Monday, December 17th, 2012, Christian Ponder and Samantha Steele were married in St. Croix (MN) County Court. With the lightning fast pace of the relationship, many were beginning to speculate on why it’s moving so quickly, with the first thought being a shotgun wedding. Steele took the coolest route possible and called…
We’re a bit late to this story but it’s one that is worth covering. Our story kicks off with Brendon Ayanbadejo, a backup linebacker for the Baltimore Ravens, speaking out in favor of gay marriage being legalized in Maryland. This prompted Maryland state delegate Emmett C. Burns Jr. to write a letter to the owner of the Ravens, asking that he “inhibit such expressions from [his] employee”. Beyond being a ridiculous request, the letter also…
Christian Ponder isn’t that good of a QB. He had a so-so first year in the pros even with one of the best backs in the league (Adrian Peterson). The Vikings are pretty terrible and you assuming you know what you’re doing, you won’t draft him in any fantasy football leagues. So why are we covering him? Because Christian Ponder’s ex-girlfriend Kacie McDonnell is ridiculously hot. We don’t know when they started dating, but that’s…
USC offensive tackle Matt Kalil’s girlfriend Mary-Kate Fitzpatrick isn’t just along for the ride. While Kalil will be in the green room at the upcoming NFL draft, Mary-Kate FitzPatrick isn’t relying on her boyfriend’s expected future income to provide for her. As a former Miss California runner-up, current Miss Hispanidad International 2011 and potential Miss Malibu USA – she has plenty going on in the model world. Originally from Danville, California, Mary-Kate FitzPatrick lost 50…
