Yahoo – On Sunday night, while his New York Giants teammates were celebrating winning a ring, linebacker Greg Jones was giving one away. The rookie took to a knee on the field at Lucas Oil Stadium after his team’s victory in Super Bowl XLVI and proposed to his college sweetheart, Amanda. Confetti was still falling from the rafters when Jones’ girlfriend accepted.”She was bawling,” Jones told NJ.com on Monday morning. “I was like, ‘I don’t know how long she’s going to keep crying.’”Practice squad tight end Christian Hopkins held the ring during the game, then gave it to Jones after Tom Brady’s Hail Mary fell incomplete. Had Rob Gronkowski caught that ball, Jones said he would have waited until another time to propose.The couple met each other at Michigan State. Jones starred on the football team, while his future bride played basketball.

This is just about the worst time ever to propose. Right? You just straight up erase your own Super Bowl memory with this engagement story. Nobody ever gonna ask you about your Super Bowl experience again. Just gonna be all about how you asked some broad to marry you. I mean yea its Greg Jones so nobody is gonna ask him about his Super Bowl experience anyway. But my point is that if I ever won a Super Bowl, I am soaking that shit in. Enjoying every second with my teammates. Hugging my coaches. Hugging Flavor Flav. All that shit. I wouldn’t wanna waste 1 second of that Super Bowl celebration. Certainly not proposing to my girlfriend. Proposing sucks. So awkward and stupid. And it happens like all day every day. Theres a sucker every two seconds proposing. Theres only 53 guys celebrating a Super Bowl every year. Do that shit next Sunday!

Greg Jones you just won the Super Bowl, what are you going to do next!?

I’m going to commit to a lifetime of one vagina and infinite nagging! Yeah!

PS – Legitimately gasped when I found a picture of this and saw she was white. Curveball!

UPDATE: My colleagues in the comments section have pointed out how happy Greg Jones’ mother looks that he’s proposing to this White Devil. Hilarious.
