Deadspin
If you were trying to book a wedding next March in Columbus, Ohio, over the last few months — not that anybody we know might have been — one of the primo spots in town was booked for a huge, lavish wedding between former Ohio State Buckeyes and current Green Bay Packers linebacker A.J. Hawk and Laura Quinn, the sister of Notre Dame quarterback Brady Quinn. (Laura is, of course, most famous for her ridiculous half-Irish, half-Buckeye outfit during the Fiesta Bowl last year.) Afterwards, once Hawk's first season in the NFL was over, they were going to honeymoon in Aruba. It was all going to be beautiful.
So why, then, did the couple hasten to shotgun a recital of vows yesterday afternoon in the Green Bay downtown law offices of Liebmann, Conway, Olejniczak & Jerry? Doesn't that seem a bit unusual? No family or friends were there either.
Hmm. Doing some math ... August ... September ... October ... March ... that's about, oh, eight months. Hmm.

(UPDATE: A source closer to this situation than we are — that is to say, a source who occasionally leaves his/her apartment — says it's not a slip-past-the-goalie situation. "it's simply to facilitate a better financial situation by allowing Laura to be insured and have the rest of her education paid for by the NFL when AJ signs his contract."
OK, that makes sense.)
Comments
well, she is catholic...
I am impressed that you found a photo of her in which she looks hot and not equine in any way.
Probably had to squeeze it in before caveman-horsewoman nuptials were outlawed.
Damned conservatives...
It doesn't really matter since Laura wouldn't have been making the return trip back from Aruba anyways.
She's a fence-riding, mouth breather. Who wouldn't want to do her?
(PS-- ew.)
You're with me, ridiclious outfit.
Every time I see AJ Hawk, I think of the movie Mask.
Just another wife for Bill Belichick to steal.
She looks like Dana Jacobsen in that picture FYI
I can't believe ONeill headbutted her...
Way to shoot the gap, AJ!
how the hell did aj hawk impregnate that man?
I think Marcia Clarke looked better with short hair.
that kid is gonna have hooves
Aren't you supposed to have a child out of wedlock and then leave her? Those crazy Buckeyes, they can't get anything right.
Does the partner in the law firm named Jerry only have one name?
We're nine months away from the reincarnation of Pan, the goat god.
Falco...maybe Jerry's Brazilian. That would explain it, right?
When did my Aunt Agnes start writing for Deadspin?
So ol' AJ "dotted" the i
Get away from me, goat boy!
Is that Alice Cooper?
Now if the kid comes out half and half.......
all this time i thought aj was gay for nick mangold
It's gonna be really awkward when the baby looks like Brady.
Comedy Pyramid! Comedy Pyramid!
Can we all simply agree that this will be the ugliest kind known to man kind. If it's a boy, he will be a steroid freak. If it's a girl, she'll be a professional women's rugby player or Xena Warrior Princess 2030.
When they camera first focused on her at the Fiesta Bowl, did Musburger exclaim "30,000 young red-blooded American men just cancelled their enrollments at The Ohio State University & Notre Dame"?
Good god almight, Deadspin has officially become one of those magazines chicks read on the stairclimber at the gym.
Xena can't fly.
I told you, I'm not Xena. I'm Lucy Lawless.
err...carry on.
W-H-O-R-E spells Laura Quinn
Todd the Walleye's comment made me fall out of my chair, it's not too soon for Holloway jokes right?
"She looks like Dana Jacobsen in that picture FYI"
That's not a good thing.
i think she looks like casey jacobsen
UM- I actually totally agree. That's good
Hey at least she's not fat like Tiger Woods' wife.
The moral of this is simple - don't screw with Will's wedding plans or else he will bring you down.
Senay made me do a spit-take. Scott, you make every post count, my friend.
She looks a lot better when she's not opening her mouth.
Like all women -- BA-ZING!!
That's rather unorthodox Medicine Woman attire, isn't it?
Brutal. Hilariously brutal.
What is the gestation period for a Manbearpig?
She looks like the Boy George cross dresser that sings with Adam Sandler in the Wedding Singer.
Do you really want to hurt me??? Yes, Mrs. Hawk....yes I do.
Bizarro, I love you!
Bizarro, I love you!
This story is a fake. There is no such thing as "downtown Green Bay."
so much comic material here... but nothing can top Walleye's - so I will resist the attempt
I just find it really funny she gets a post on deadspin and people know who she is not by what she has done in her life but for who her brother and husband are. Only in America
It probably has less to do with spawning and more to do with how much money she can get if their married before versus after he signs a contract. Judging from this picture, I think she could hurt him. She's definitely built for power, not speed. She probably had him in a head lock the whole time, screaming 'yeah muthaf*cka, he does! Skip to the end'.
Stalin - LOVE the Critic reference....
I think their child will look something like this....

Actually, the pic of Laura reminds me of Joanna Lumley during an AbFab flashback.
Yep, that wheel's on fire alright.
I can only imagine what happens when those two get into a fight.
AJ: Brady and I are taking a trip to the glue factory, and YOU'RE not invited.
So a woman walks into a bar and the bartender says, "Why the long face?"
jesuspunchesallpunks says:
"I just find it really funny she gets a post on deadspin and people know who she is not by what she has done in her life but for who her brother and husband are. Only in America"
I would argue that is how most of the world works, and that in America we let the women roam free. (For better or worse, because by this example she's used that freedom to fug herself. Nobody wins that war.)
