DELAVAN -- After a day on the golf course, Dallas Cowboy quarterback Tony Romo figured Mexican food was just the thing to hit the spot.
The Burlington native was spotted in Hernandez Mexican Restaurant with his girlfriend, singer and actress Jessica Simpson, where they posed for photos and chatted with customers.
Romo was back home to compete with his dad in the Ray Fisher State Medal Play Golf Championship at Janesville's Riverside Golf Course.
Romo, who began the day Sunday four shots back, finished at 1-under, in a tie for 18th.
Hernandez is a favorite stop for Romo and Simpson. Raphael Hernandez Sr., is a longtime friend of Romo's grandfather.
Residents can expect to see more of Romo in the area the next few weeks. His annual football camp at Burlington High School is July 7-8, 2009.

Is this one of the last pictures taken of the (formerly) happy couple? If so, get TMZ on the phone!

Looks like I'll have to dust off my camera and start making money off low quality paparazzi pictures sold to T.M.Z.
.
And true.... Why do they call Jessica Simpson a singer? Or an actress? I would no sooner call Jessica Simpson a singer or an actress than I would refer to the Queen of Merry Old England herself as the King of Pop.
.
If I ever ran into Jessica Simpson around here, I would be tempted to spit in her face. Same goes for Paris Hilton, Brittney Spears, and Lindsay Lohan. Just another a pack of overpaid, untalented show business scum that couldn't make their way up the ladder in Hollywood without a pretty face and a nice figure.

I can't say enough positive things about the Armory-- food and entertainment both! Their tilapia is excellent... but a matter of opinion I suppose.
With regard to this story not being news, I much prefer seeing this than news about murders, drugs, crummy economy, etc. all the time.

He is going to comeback every year to visit his family. Are you going to have a story on it every year? Pathetic. This is not news!

On Friday night they ate at the Armory in Janesville! They were both very friendly and down to earth.

I respect that he still honors his roots. He seems like a pretty down to earth guy.
