Just when we all thought that Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries had ruined the sanctity of marriage forever, Kristin Cavallari took to her Twitter account earlier this afternoon to strike an arrow through the hearts of the non-believers. Kristin has announced that she and Chicago Bears Quarterback Jay Cutler are engaged once more! Ah, that must be great news to Bears fans right now.

In case you forgot – in which case, you should see a physician to treat your amnesia – Cutler and Cavallari were previously engaged for a whopping three months. Cutler proposed during a spur-of-the-moment trip to Cabo in the spring (everyone knows Cancun is the spring spot, brah) but they just couldn’t withstand the media scrutiny, and they split in July.

And that’s not to say that the scrutiny has dissipated. Cutler was recently named the 5th most disliked player in the NFL, behind Mike Vick, Plaxico Burress, Ben Roethlisberger and Albert Haynesworth. That’s some pretty specific company, what with two felons, an accused rapist and a guy who stomped an opposing player’s head and then never tried hard again. But let me just remind everyone that Cutler is a great guy with a great sense of humor and he does so much to help children with diabetes.

And yes, yes I am just being nice so he will invite me to a fashion show. Sue me.

We here at With Leather have been torn up about the broken engagement of Kristin Cavallari and Jay Cutler, but according to reports from Hollywood Life the whirlwind romance of a reality television teenager and a hapless, emo quarterback might’ve not been the image of Camelot it seemed. Apparently Kristin wore the capri pants in the relationship, emotionally abusing Jay to the point of accusing him of faking his injury during the Chicago Bears 21-14 loss to the Green Bay Packers in last season’s NFC Championship Game. I mean, so did everybody else, but come on, you’re supposed to be his girlfriend.

From the report, via what I can only assume to be extremely reputable sources:

So how was his relationship with former fiancee Kristin? “Kristin would call Jay a loser and a p**sy, and she’d scream it at him so everyone could hear. They would have fights about Jay being too conceited. They would also argue over how mean he was to people. She would make a point of saying hello to people in the hall, just to piss him off,” our insider laughingly tells us.

In January, they got into a big blow-out argument after Jay injured his knees during the NFL playoffs. He was diagnosed with a MCL sprain. “Kristin called Jay out, saying she thought he was faking the injury and told him he was worthless.”

Of course, Cavallari was quick to jump on Twitter and defend herself.

Notice how she doesn’t mention the “worthless” or “loser” or “p**sy” parts. It’s like when Princess Leia calls Han Solo a stuck up, half-witted, scruffy-looking Nerf herder and he responds with “Who’s scruffy-looking?”

I’m not sure if throwing footballs to the wrong team counts as “herding Nerf”, but I think the comparison stands.

In last season’s NFC Championship game against the Packers, Bears quarterback Jay Cutler hurt his knee (or didn’t hurt his knee) and took a powder. He sat out for about half the game when his team needed him the most, basically handing people the right to rag on him mercilessly for the rest of his life. If he thinks that’s going to be limited to NFL fans and the Internet, he should think bigger; even the federal government is speaking out on Cutler’s trademark futility.

Enter Paul Ryan, a Republican Congressman from Wisconsin who opened his speech about debt reduction to The Economic Club of Chicago with an absolute ice burn on the “Laguna Beach” season seven hopeful:

“I want to thank you all for inviting me to speak. It was especially gracious of you to host me, even though I’m a Packers fan and I assume most of you are Bears fans,” Ryan began.

“But that doesn’t mean we can’t work together. As chairman of the House Budget Committee, I stand ready to do whatever it takes to help you re-sign Jay Cutler. I’m here to talk about the economy today — about the need to get four quarters of strong, consistent performance. That wasn’t another Jay Cutler joke, I swear. It could be, but it’s not.”

I would’ve preferred the “that wasn’t another Jay Cutler joke” part read “boom, roasted,” but hey. This is the way we should be spending our nightmare lockout — making fun of people who deserve it.

[H/T Shutdown Corner]

As Chicago Bears fans and even current NFL players have ripped QB Jay Cutler for having no heart in the Bears’ 21-14 loss to the Green Bay Packers in the NFC Championship, it has been revealed that J-Cutty actually tore sprained his MCL yesterday and that’s why he couldn’t return to the game. But it didn’t help that he was walking around, standing upright and riding the stationary bike, leading many fans to think he was simply being a sissy little girl and a quitter. While medical reports (and Cutler’s teammates) are now telling us the real story, we certainly can’t take back the reactions from yesterday.

Reports that Bears fans were burning Cutler jerseys in the parking lot started hitting Twitter almost immediately after the game and sure enough there are videos of fans expressing their displeasure with J-Cutty by dousing his jersey with gasoline. However, I think it’s a bit juvenile for people to burn Cutler’s jerseys, especially when there are so many Chad Henne jerseys that should be destroyed first.
