This video was originally posted by Ty Sports back in January, but it’s definitely worth watching again. The video features Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo in 2004 when he was a third-stringer, and he’s asked about the top stories of the year. He ends up describing his ideal woman.

Romo was looking for a 5-foot 8-inch woman in ’04, but he lowered his standards for the 5-foot 3-inch Simpson. I guess the blond hair is more important than the height. At least now we know why things didn’t work out between Tony Romo and Sophia Bush.

Dallas Cowboy fans everywhere are hoping US Weekly’s claim that quarterback Tony Romo and Jessica Simpson could get engaged is an early April Fool’s day joke. There’s no way the Cowboy faithful are gonna allow the Human Jinx into the stadium. Is this a believable rumor? The source is Michael Starr, a close friend of Romo’s and he tells US Weekly:

“I think they’re going to get married.”

Sounds official to me… Or like a publicity stunt put together by Jessica Simpson’s dad. Whether it’s true or not, former Tony Romo girlfriend Sophia Bush thinks the kids can make it:

“I think they could go the distance. They’re perfect for each other. They’re both funny and wonderful and kind. I’m rooting for them.”

Aaahh isn’t Sophia Bush sweet? And full of crap. What woman is rooting for ex-boyfriend to have a successful new relationship? That would almost be like Nick Lachey giving Romo and Jessica the thumbs up.. Oh wait a second..

“I wish her nothing but happiness. If she’s found that… good for her.”

That’s Nick’s nice way of saying “I’m glad I’m done with that crazy broad and good luck to Tony Romo”. If this is true,, good luck indeed.
