“I didn’t know he was going to get married,” Jacobs told the Albany Times Union. “I’m surprised, because I would usually know about something like this. He’s going to be (in New York) soon, and I’m going to ask him a lot of questions.

“I’m a little surprised, but in a way I expected it, too. I know he was in love with Robin. Maybe it’ll settle Mike down.”
