Carrie Underwood no longer needs the Z-list rodeo of Tony Romo. Underwood is going to be riding the backstroke of Michael Phelps.

The current story of their rumored romance starts with Michael hearing that Carrie thought he was “cute.” Which we all know is crap because no one has ever made it past his pecks. Plus, he is “cute” ? What is this “Saved by the Bell” and she thinks she is Kelly Kapowski?

So the two have been “smitten” with each other ever since. The human version of Flipper has been texting and calling Underwood on a daily basis. He has finally come back to the states. Meanwhile, Carrie is eager to make water dynamic babies that have great hair with him.

“Carrie suggested “a quiet dinner” as a first date, said the source.

“But Michael laughed and said, ‘I’m not so sure that you’d want to see me eat! It might not make a good first impression.’”

Yes, that is probably a smart move being that he eats just over 12,000 calories a day. I imagine it looks like something like a gorilla in a banana factory….or Amy Winehouse at a crack party.
