According to [this](http://www.contactmusic.com/news.nsf/story/jessica-simpson-curses-ex_1113716) article, Jessica Simpson has put a curse on your QB! 🙂 (If this weren’t about sports I would have put it in MPSIMS)

I’m not aware of any other NFL player who’s love life has such a deleterious impact on their level of play. Romo actually looked pretty good against the Titans. I suspect this will last only until he gets a new girlfriend.

No, damnit! You don’t “put a spell on Tony and ruin his chances of falling in love again”, you put a spell on Tony and ruin his chances of ever finding the end zone again!

Does this mean we will be cursed with a Jessica Simpson cover of “I Put a Spell On You”?

No kidding. I read the OP and thought maybe she’d cursed his football life. His love life? Sweet! If this witch is even half-competent, my money’s on the 'boys for the next three or four Super Bowls.

Yeah, absolutely!
