Probable pic of Eliza Kruger, aspiring socialite and daugter of hedge fund manager Konrad Kruger (Conrad with a K, really?).

Oh, New York Jets, you may not have made the Super Bowl, but you sure did give us a lot of excitement in the last season. Dong-shot aficionados and all-around sports rumor mill Deadspin broke the Eliza Kruger and Mark Sanchez story yesterday, on the heels (yep, time for a foot pun already) of their somewhat racy, but mostly officious coverage of Jets coach Rex Ryan’s wifey foot fetish videos. That’s already been covered ad nauseum, so there’s no reason to re-tread that old pun mill, so on to the handsome quarterback’s dalliance. Before anyone cries statutory, it should be noted that the age of consent in New York is actually 17, and both Eliza Kruger and Mark Sanchez were aware of this when they met at a New Year’s Eve party at a swanky Manhattan nightclub. Apparently, they did not get together that night, but Sanchez texted Kruger on numerous occasions afterward; he would ping Kruger’s Blackberry during the week, often late at night, and ask if she was going out. She would reply that she was not, on account that it was “a school night”. Regardless of the age of consent, that’s got to be a little sad/creepy, right? Read the rest of the article yourself before the relative salaciousness of it is dulled by the next news cycle.
