Nick Mangold is a center and his job as an offensive lineman is to take care of his quarterback. He is taking his job a step further than what’s expected as he tries to land Tim Tebow a date with Olympian Lolo Jones.
It all started days ago when a Jones interview with Real Sports on HBO aired. In the interview she said she is a virgin and plans to remain that way until marriage, but that she hasn’t had any luck in finding a man.
Many fans offered help and suggestions with one popular suggestion being the surprisingly-controversial Tebow, who shares the same values.
Jones took to Twitter to respond.
Ask Tebow if he wants a glass of milk. If he says yes, ask him if he prefers chocolate. if he says no, then no more Tebow date suggestions

Mangold then stepped in.

Meeting with the press today, Mangold the matchmaker/spy revealed his answer to the world and directed it right to Jones.
If this actually works, Tebow owes Mangold big time.
Don't like the Jets, but I can dig what Nick Mangold had on his shirt lol
