An L.A. love triangle?
Posted by on Friday, October 7, 2005 at 4:59 am

According to Deadspin, Nick Lachey has left Jessica Simpson for… Matt Leinart? Heh. (Hat tip: Boi From Troy.)

UPDATE: Fellow ‘SC grad and SI on Campus writer Arash Markazi says this is bunkum:

I sat down with [Lachey and Leinart] for the cover story [Tuesday] and thought a couple of rumors that came out the next day were a bit premature, if not completely false.

First, Us Weekly reported that Lachey and his wife Jessica Simpson had split up saying the two had been separated for some time. Lachey, still wearing his wedding ring, not only told me that things were fine between the two of them, but that he was missing Game 1 of the ALDS between the Angels and Yankees to be with her. So you have to take him at his word, at least for now. And I would put very little stock into the rumor that Lachey and Leinart are about to move in together, unless Leinart’s planning to move to Calabasas or Lachey is planning to leave Jessica and move into a downtown apartment. Both are about as likely to happen as Lachey playing tailback at USC, which he said was the position he tried out for when he walked on to the team in 1993, John Robinson’s first year back as USC’s coach. “I quit after a week,” said Lachey, who had never played organized football before. “There were five guys who had no business being out there and I was one of them.”

Arash also has a funny commentary on the return of the National Hockey League: “Was anyone else surprised to find the NHL season had already begun? Seeing hockey highlights on TV again for the first time in more than a year is kind of like seeing an old classmate you were never really friends with at a party. You know, the one who somehow remembers your name but all you can say is “Hey … you.” It’s not like you don’t want to see them, it’s just that you don’t really care one way or the other. If they’re at the party, fine, if not, no biggie. That’s the way I feel about hockey.”

    Nick Lachey is a fag. As for Matt Leinart, this ain’t the way to move yourself up in the NFL draft. People are going to start comparing these guys to Peyton Manning and Kenny Chesney.

  2. Andrew Says:

    How can you move up in the draft if you’re already projected as the #1 overall pick?

  3. Andrew Says:

    I don’t blame Lachey. Jessica Simpson has progressively gotten sluttier and sluttier, and I think even he was surprised at how much of a dumb blonde she is. Plus, any offspring could turn out to have voices like Ashley Simpson. Oy vey!

  4. Andrew Says:

    Arash throws water on this rumor in his latest column on CNNSI.

  5. Bea Says:

    Andrew, you have a problem with Jessica getting sluttier and sluttier by the minute? hehe. Or is it just that, as a husband, Nick should be pissed? Sexist pig!! except, wait, I kinda agree, she was miss “virgin till marriage is my claim to fame”, apaprnetly until she lured the sucker in and discovered the wonders of sex, and now she wants to wash cars while nearly humping them, for the world to see.

  6. BK Says:

    Andrew,

    Is Matty boy really projected #1? Even if Bush comes out? I haven’t seen any projections, so I am honestly asking…I can’t imagine anyone taking ML over Bush, even if they are starved for a QB, especially considering ML was a little sloppy in the UO game and pretty darn sloppy in the ASU game (stiches/possible concussion or not).

  7. Andrew Says:

    Well, I wouldn’t mind you washing cars like that, as long as it is my driveway and there aren’t any cameras around. ;-)

  8. Andrew Says:

    BK, Bush will have too many doubts about being able to be a full-time, between-the-tackles back to go #1.

  9. Brendan Says:

    I’m going to hope that Andrew was talking to Bea, and not Brian, with his “washing cars” comment… heh. :)

  10. Andrew Says:

    Dude, look at the time tags! I don’t know how BK slipped his comment in before me, that rat hairy bastard.

  11. BK Says:

    PS - I don’t wash cars

  12. Bea Says:

    I don’t wash cars either. Actually, I hate washing or cleaning much of anything. Let someone else do the chores :)
