Are a pair of NFL quarterbacks getting ready to take the plunge into marital bliss with their respective honeys?
FOX Sports passes along some Chicago-based dish that injured New England Patriots quarterback—no, we’re not over it, so leave us alone—Tom Brady and supermodel arm charm and bling-seller Gisele Bundchen may soon be swapping vows.

Will they honeymoon with Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo and Jessica Simpson, also rumored to be interested in a walk down the aisle? According to the Chicago-Sun Times (what’s with Chicago and NFL gossip lately?), the Texas twosome was on the bright-and-shiny object prowl …read more

Marko Jaric of the Minnesota Timberwolves had a ring on his mind Thrusday night during Game 4 of the NBA Finals (Go Celtics!), but it wasn’t a championship ring.
No, Jaric had the other important ring in mind: the one he gave his now-bride-to-be, Victoria’s Secret supermodel Adriana Lima.
The Brazilian knockout and her Serb honey have been dwelling in coupledom for nine months. Early on in their relationship, we examined The Supermodel Effect, which poses an age-old debate: Do smokin’ girlfriends enhance or detract from an athlete’s on-field performance? (We proceed on the assumption that their off-field performance is just fine).

Marko Jaric’s …read more

We made this observation way back in November, when Marko Jaric’s on-court numbers with the Minnesota Timberwolves spiked as things were heating up with his arm charm, Victoria’s Secret model Adriana Lima.
And Super Bowl aside, European jet-setter Tom Brady had a season for the QB record books. It also marks his first full NFL season with Gisele Bundchen at his side.
Now we can add Andy Roddick to the list of Athletes Who Improved After Getting a Little Something-Something From a Model. Just days after his engagement to swimsuit model Brooklyn Decker, Roddick broke his 11-game losing streak to Roger Federer …read more

Why? Because not only did they sway that whole naughty-nice thing in our favor (yay for payoffs!), but they’re helping us cross things off the Gossip on Sports wishlist a week early.
Undefeated Pats? Check, so far. Sure, there are two more regular season games, but that “0″ in the loss column looks too comfy to leave anytime soon. 
Tony Romo and Jessica Simpson still together? Check. And you know our ongoing investigation of The Supermodel Effect? We’re now examining the Pop Princess Phenomenon. Romo bombed in yesterday’s outing against the Eagles. Is the dark-rooted blonde bombshell affecting the Dallas QB’s game? (And are we alone in guessing she …read more

If you read Gossip on Sports fairly often (and we hope you do), you might have noticed that we heart inside jokes and running gags. Even so, we wondered whether or not the Brazilian supermodel theme had overstayed its welcome, not unlike Eric Gagne (pronounced “Gahn-yay”; alternate pronunciation, ”gone yet” . . . As in, “Is he gone yet?”).
After two, possibly three, seconds of deep thought, we decided: No way! We can still squeeze some mileage out of it.
SO: The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show aired last night. We weren’t there, but we did wear VS underthings to show our support. (Get it? …read more

‘Tis the season to milk holiday-themed blog posts!
Be warned: This novelty will last until the Eggnog Tipping Point is reached. That’s when readers and bloggerette alike find themselves having to add eggnog to their rum, instead of the other way around, in order to find anything humorous in the posts. But we ourselves are easily amused–see the previous post for proof—so buckle up, the Eggnog Tipping Point is a ways away. (And if you’re in the mood for non-snarky, non-gimmicky posts about Da Holidaze, check out b5-er Libby’s new blog, All Holiday Cafe.)
Here are 5 things on the Gossip on Sports Holiday Wishlist. We …read more

Question: Is this woman inspiring?

Answer: Yes, especially to Minnesota Timberwolves guard Marko Jaric, whose recent stats are as smokin’ as his new arm charm, Victoria’s Secret hottie Adriana Lima. Coincidence? His teammates think not.
Two consecutive posts on Brazilian supermodels. Anyone complaining?
*hears crickets*
Yeah, we didn’t think so.
