According to the comments on tech gossip site Valleywag, Tyler, of James and Tyler is the son of Buck's Cafe owner Jamis MacNiven.

Not true. Why is this important? Two reasons.

First, Valleywag has the wrong Tyler. Tyler MacNiven, not Tyler Denk is the son of the Buck's of Woodside owner. Tyler Denk, was one of the winners of Amazing Race 10, while Tyler MacNiven was part of the hippie duo that won Amazing Race 9. They are both pictured semi-nude above, we will let y'all figure out who's who.

Second, the son of the Buck's Cafe owner doesn't need the one million dollar Amazing Race prize. Tyler Mac's dad has most definitely got in on plenty of friend's and family pre-ipo shares--from Google to EBay, we are guessing. On the contrary, Tyler Denk, the real recovering drug addict, most definitely could use the cash. According to the internets, Tyler Denk was homeless and extremely poor when he was "discovered" by a photographer and became a male model.

As for Buck's Cafe, the Woodside venture capitalist haunt is definitely Jaunted post worthy, but you will have to wait on that one, after all, we think you will agree, setting the record straight on the Amazing Race Tylers is far more important than what Bill Gurley eats for breakfast.

Update: Just in case you are still confused about the Tylers, we posted a photo of hippie Tyler MacNiven dressed up like a geshia here. Clear now? Good.
