I continue not to have strong feelings about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce but he seems to be a big galoot and I feel like marrying a big galoot is usually a solid choice so good for her

As his playing career winds down, Travis muses about maybe taking up an instrument. "Maybe we could–" "No," says Taylor, kindly but firmly. "No, we could not." "You'd be a great coach," she adds.
He's very successful. She's very successful. I think it's beautiful. I, myself married a big galoot Marine because he made me feel safe and introduced me to new things he's very good at, and I wasn't, and I introduced him to things he wasn't. That is a marriage made in heaven with respect.
I’m kind of happy to have one big news thing that don’t have much of a reaction to and that is just fine.
Galoots are cute, but the wirey are fiery.
🫶🏼
He’s a big hairy NFL tight end probably packing hella pipe that he’s had women fawning over since he was dominating high schoolers so yes this was probably a ROCK SOLID choice for her lol
It's a triumph for galoots everywhere!
They can be the next Jessica Simpson + Tony Romo!
Moose and Midge
As a fellow (though certainly not professional) galoot, I politely applaud their betrothal
At least it's not quite at the level of Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani.
They both suck
People who have worked with him in various acting projects have said that he comes in saying "I don't really know what I'm doing, but I am very coachable" and that is probably the best trait to have in a partner in general. Knows what he doesn't know and is willing to learn.
Most of the comments are good hearted comments I expect no less from folks here on blusky...y'all did not disappoint. Im happy for them and hope they enjoy a long life of happiness.
I’ve seem some sour grapes from folks who resent that she is a billionaire. She worked hard for the money! 🤷♀️
She loves his big arms...😍
Cant stand the bullshit maybe they just actually love each other is that hard to understand or are you just that callous in your thinking 🤔
We galoots gotta stand together after goons were stolen from us. I concur. Kelce seems pretty fine and normal minus the usual baggage of head trauma that comes from the NFL. Hopefully it all works out and stays that way.
He’s a big old golden retriever guy:) perfect!
Big galoots make the best Golden Retriever Husbands.
It is quite a bit strange how he immediately dropped the “white guy that only dates black girls” aesthetic he had for over a decade as soon as she came around
Also I used to live about a block from them (in the Heights) and can confirm he's from the kind of neighborhood that will disproportionately produce galoots who lack toxic masculinity
The Kelces were white kids in an inner-ring suburb where most of their neighbors went to private school and the Kelces went to their majority-black public school instead. You can see how it's shaped their values (and why they wear Cleveland Heights, rather than their colleges, on their sleeves).
I just hope that as a young couple in today’s market, that they’ll be okay…it’s tough out there…
Someday my galoot will come
They can match each others level of goofiness. That’s part of why I thought it would work.
I predicted this would happen (as I am sure many people did): bsky.app/profile/leon...
Himbos are top notch
As someone who’s married to a big galoot, I concur
Congrats on their engagement, but am I the only one who feels like this relationship was fabricated??
Don’t know, don’t care. I try not to opine on shit I don’t have enough details on.
I’ll say curated. She’s got a tight grip on her image so it makes sense that everything we see from her relationship is on brand. Probably better that way!
Where can I find my big galoot?
Obviously I am biased but I fully support mixed-attractiveness couples
Also, the dynamic of a fierce, successful woman with a kind-hearted, big goofy guy who's not that bright and admires her intellect Or, you know, so I've heard...
Profile pic checks out
Big Gallot here (6'6'' and 300lbs). Wish you were my Mother-in-Law.
Says the dude with a kronk profile picture.
I always think about how she's had to deal with a horrific level of stalker bullshit her entire career, and how having this big, strong dude at her side who is a top level professional at dealing with other huge dudes coming at him must make her feel safer on such a deep level.
I wonder why you think marrying a big galoot is a good thing. :)
Agreed—#TaylorSwift chose wisely.
Plus they're just honestly adorable together.
They really are. And this from a die hard cynic. :)
Not as adorable as Zendaya and Tom Holland, but that's mostly 'cause he always looks like he doesn't believe she's there with him.
I love your galoot solidarity!!!
It's a decent choice broadly but it feels like a particularly strong choice for her
I salute a lummox who made good
I have no idea what a galoot is but I am happy for her
Big galoot is the best description for him. She may just stay engaged forever like Lady Gaga.
Emotional diva + galoot is a solid combo and always will be
They seem genuinely happy and it makes people furious. I hope they are full of joy.
He’s mad in love with her. It’s a beautiful thing.
This. The way he sings joyfully and fearlessly to all of her songs in public says so much.
I myself am just thrilled! 😒 I hope I get an invite. 🛩️
I'm so interested in this, also by Palestine Genocide, the ICE goons and the invasion of blue states by red goons
I feel you but I must say, it’s nice these days to be celebrating love instead of hate. Just for a minute.
Himbo season is every season
His galoot may just be average
look I don't know what he's like in his everyday life but his reaction to a silly little prank by a teammate has absolutely impeccable vibes a member in good standing of the BGSA
His reputation among teammates, and this has been written about before, is that he’s the guy who’s constantly trying to encourage everyone, even the backups and guys who’ve made costly mistakes, and make them feel optimistic about themselves
Amused by some of the reporting. www.freep.com/story/sports...
Yeah she needs a simple minded, pig skin tossing galoot that adores her and that isn’t some sort of reckless narcissist or cup of British depresso.
I think he is specifically a good archetype for her because being one of the most successful entertainers in history means your spouse is going to have to be okay being the less successful partner “genial lummox” is about as good a bet as you can make on that front
May they live like and be as happy as Dolly and.... Mr. Dolly. Dude knew his lane and rocked it.
I need a scale that indicates how galoots, genial lummoxes, and himbos interrelated. This one is prolly linear rather than orthagonal, don'tcha think?
I don't know Micah, that sounds like a strong take...
I started posting and then I developed a take! it’s a disease
We must all have takes, otherwise people won't respond to tell us how right or wrong we are, and without that can we truly feel?
Better talk to your doctor. I hear that can be an early sign of poster's madness.
They seem happy. Blessings be upon them
my saint genius hero wife is doing rather well by being married to a good-natured large oaf so all this checks out.
good natured large oafs unite
one presumes @swolecialism.bsky.social ‘s eyes are burning as we speak. (does eyes instead of ears because this is text work? i’m landing on “well enough”)
John Cena and Alan Ritchson show with guest appearances by Travis Kelce and other pure galoots. With Tom Holland as their sidekick, forever running between their legs.
Actually, @legalminimum.bsky.social arent you trying for a Himbo movie full of "What if Man Big AND Good?"
Himbo Heist! The only thing you missed there is that the heist leader would be Kristin Chenoweth. You've even hit most of my dream cast: John Cena as the driver (so it's a self-driving car), Alan Ritchson, Jason and Travis Kelce (to replace Gronk as "Gronk"), and Chris Hemsworth.
"Their minds are as empty as their hearts are full."
Bonus points for use of galoot and lummox 👏
And he's less successful but still like, good at his own shit and it's totally different than hers so he still gets to feel special.
he won some super bowls! his ego will be just fine
I think playing tight end, a position where you get less credit and less money than similarly talented QBs and WRs is good preparation for marrying one of the most famous and successful women on the planet. A CB, Edge, or other skill position player might start to feel insecure.
I'm sure she's less of a diva than Mahomes.
He seems a good guy. She seems a good lady. I hope they have eternal joy together. I really do.
It’s nuts that “less successful” in this context is “likely future first ballot NFL Hall of Famer.”
And he’s genuinely one of the best to ever play his position so his star doesn’t event get outshined, it just gets brighter collectively because now he’s the best known Football Guy in pop culture
being worth over 100m himself, multiple super bowl wins, and likely ending his career as a first-ballot hall of famer probably helps in the ol' jealousy department
He’s already comfy playing second fiddle to a brilliant, once-in-a-generation talent.
An ~independently wealthy~ genial lummox is the sweet spot of the venn diagram
Usually getting in a relationship with a fan is a problem but I guess it works for them?
What choice does she have? Who isn’t a Taylor Swift fan?
and one successful enough in his own right to have a strong sense of self even in light of her massive stardom!
Successful in a field completely divorced from her own is a big part of this too (although he’s getting into acting now and he’s not horrible)
i agree with this and this has nothing to do with the fact that both of us are big galoots and big galoot forward
Yeah, “generally upbeat and overall decent person” is about the ideal match for her.
Speaking as a genial lummox I wish them well and I’m fine in either a media environment saturated with stories on it or not, whatever! It doesn’t bother me none.
"top 5 all time nfl tight end" is literally the perfect vocation for her partner: he's incredible at something that's inherently second place. yeah, he catches passes - not quite like a wr, though. yeah, he blocks - not quite like an ol, though
I just get the vibe that he is independently successful in what he does, but also a good human, and not _threatened_ by the amount of money she has and her hard work and success. Like, it's the dream- mutual attraction, mutual success, no tally sheet of "who makes more/is breadwinner."
Because in the end, it's fundamental to the Patriarchy that "whomever makes more money is the Boss of your Relationship," and it's so delightful to see that subverted. Like, they actually like each other. That's amazing stuff!
Every football player knows they’re in a job that comes to an end early, often a premature & painful end, and then what do they do with the rest of their lives? Kind of nice to see the guy being the one who’s marrying for security, TBH.
Bets on whether Jason loses his shirt at the reception?
"genial and endlessly supportive lummox" is a good choice. They've seemed like a good match. And I thought they gotten hitched in secret already
big galoot ❤️
I can tell by your pfp that you have a soft spot for big galoots
Hmmmm your feelings look strong….
I’m hoping he’s a himbo of the Hercules variety and that they are very happy together 🥳
