Tony Romo Breaks Up With Jessica Simpson

In yet another sign of the economic downturn, Tony Romo dumped Jessica Simpson the night before her 29th birthday, saving Romo from having to buy Jessica a present.

Tony Romo’s financial adviser Richard Ginsburg released this statement “I think we all know that we are in some tough economic times right now. From a financial standpoint breaking up with your girlfriend before her birthday, Valentine’s Day, or Christmas just makes sense.”

However, our source close to the couple thinks the break up was because of more than just financial concerns. He suggests that Jessica Simpson’s recent weight gain may have played a roll, saying “Football season will be starting soon and Tony is going to have large bodies on top of him every day for the next couple months. He doesn’t need that when he gets home as well.”
