Heismatt & Hilton
You can’t even sign on to AOL’s home page without being hit by a Matt Leinart-Paris Hilton story. Here’s a quote: ``They are definitely a couple," said one eyewitness. "No question about that. Their body language says it. The look in the eyes to each other says it. The open kissing and arms around each other in front of his family and friends says it. They just don’t want it in the magazines.’’
Our spies spotted Leinart and Hilton being, uh, cozy, in March. At the time, Leinart only smiled when asked about the romance.
But the couple went public immediately after the NFL draft. Couldn’t be that Leinart was worried his celebrity canoodling would turn off pro teams? Not that it worked because it’s probably a reason some teams that picked before Arizona passed on Leinart.
Personally, I’m all for Leinart dating Hilton if it makes him happy. I remember last season there was only one time I saw him in the lobby of Heritage Hall when he wasn’t looking down at the ground or barely acknowledging his teammates.
He was actually engaged and almost animated in the company of a friend. As I got closer, it turned out to be actor Wilmer Valderamma.

Lucky guy...she is very hot! Well traveled to and could teach Matt some great lessions in how to drag a dollar through a trailer park.

Hmmmmmm,strange Wolfie...Are you sure that it's not Matty and Wilmy that are "definately a couple" I mean the reference to "you can see it in the body language" and the only time little Matty was happy when you saw him was when he was around Wilmy...Hey I'm not sayin', but I'm sayin', not that there is anything wrong with it....

I enjoy your work and think you're hilarious on Petros' show. For the most part, I think you get a bad rap on the message boards. With that said, your constant sniping about Leinart says more about you than it does about Leinart. Yeah, Leinart got a big head and has gone Hollywood. So what? He won't be the 1st quarterback with a giant ego and he won't be the last. He's an Arizona Cardinal now and it's time to move on. These constant little barbs at Leinart are beneath you. Leinart is about to get a big time serving of humble pie in the NFL -- it's in your best interest to simply keep your mouth shut and let him eat it.

Let Matt have everything he can get right now including a big greasy helping of Paris Hilton. Like her advert for Carls Jr, says,"If it doesnt get all over the place it doesnt belong in your face."
He is going to get whupped on with the Cardinals so let him have some fun for a change.

i think paris is worth more than the $10-15M that matt lost by staying in school...
hmmm. so, does that mean he actually made out by staying at 'SC (and in LA) another year?

Matt is suffering from serious overexposure. He needs to pull back.

why can't he just go out with someone normal? He's only just starting the NFL, he hasn't proved anything yet and needs to get less hollywood if he wants to succeed. I think that his bosses will only let this ' hollywood' nature ride for a while.....not everybody is David Beckham and can have success in both spheres.......and he has certainly had his dirty laundry aired alot.... but atleast he has some standing as a football player to support him. What do you guys think about people's comments on Paris's sexual relations? I've read alot of derogatory comments which as a 21st century women have shocked me because of their blatant male chauvinism and double standards.

Hey I was just thinking surely this whole thing won't last that long what with him being in Arizona. I'm not from the US so I don't quite know the geography but I'm imagining LA and New York are quite far away from Arizona. Also I can't really imagine Paris getting that excited about Arizona.......no offence to anyone's who's from there, it just seems like she only hangs out in all the predictable places you know?
