Romo famously dated Jessica Simpson for nearly two years; he ended their relationship in July 2009, the night before her 29th birthday. Before Simpson, he also romanced Carrie Underwood and actress Sophia Bush.

Simpson, 30, got engaged to another footballer, Eric Johnson, in November 2010. She confirmed her good news days after ex-hubby Nick Lachey announced his own engagement to Vanessa Minillo after four years of on-and-off dating.

    Tony Romo is cute and deserves to be happy. His wife, on the other hand, seems like a bimbo to me.

    Whether Danica moves to NASCAR is immaterial. In the final year of her contract, she likely wonâ??t be back with Andretti next year notwithstanding. http://bit.ly/jWKFjh

    What's with UGLY guys like this one,who always manage to date beautiful women? This guy looks like crap! Why would he break up with Simpson the day before her birthday? Couldn't he wait a couple of days? Or was he trying to save money not buying her a birthday present? He can't be a good person. I hope his wife teaches him a lesson.
