Bush won the Heisman trophy in 2005, the year Kardashian ended her relationship with Ray "You Can Call Me" J. Since then, well, it's been rough going.

At some point in February, Kardashian sued Vivid Studios for ruining lonely men everywhere's fun by trying to halt distribution of her sex tape. A month before that, Yahoo! Sports published an investigative look into potential money, goods, and services given to Bush and his family during his collegiate playing days, a big no-no.

A year after that, they were rumored to be dating. Which brings us to January 2008, and they're in wuv.

Kardashian's reality show on E! might be doing well, but Bush himself is struggling in his own profession. After being drafted second overall by the New Orleans saints (a shock at the time that he wasn't taken first), his college dominance hasn't translated to the pro level, and his Subway commercials with Jared just aren't cuttin' it.

Unlike Jessica Simpson trying to latch onto rising NFL star Tony Romo, perhaps Kardashian isn't the one trying to latch onto a famous person. Maybe it's the other way around.

What's that? Bush is in the third year of a 6-year, $54 million contract? Okay, he'll be fine. Maybe he saw the demo tape and wanted in on some of that.
