In contrast to his reputation, throughout the series, we see him engaged in long-term, albeit extremely tumultuous, relationships with just three women (Lyla, Tyra, and Jackie) and he is genuinely distraught when each woman breaks up with him. While we see him flirt with rally girls, the only actual one-night stand we see him engage in is with Cheryl Sproles who makes it clear that she would welcome a repeat performance, but the age difference (she is over ten years Tim's senior) and her neediness make Tim uncomfortable and he refuses. He also serves as a [[BigBrotherInstinct protective older brother figure]] to some of the younger female characters such as Becky and Julie. He refuses their blatant advances, tries to redirect their interests to more age-appropriate companions, and generally tries to keep them out of trouble recognizing some of the bad intentions of the guys they encounter.
** It should also be pointed out that people often claim that Tim has slept with half of the girls (and women) in Dillon, but because of the odd way time passes on the show, for the majority of the show he is between 15-17 years old. So either there is a lot of exaggeration or a large number of older girls and older women ignored the [[DoubleStandard age of consent]].
*** This is actually the case with Jackie who is portrayed to be in her early to mid-30s while Tim is 16. The show does not explicitly treat this as an unsavory pedophilic relationship, but Jackie eventually has a meltdown over the idea of anyone discovering that she has slept with a minor and ends the relationship. Tim is shown to be enamored with Jackie and enjoys both the physical and emotional nature of their affair. However, an objective and discerning viewer can see that Tim lacks the emotional maturity to be in such a relationship which is a big reason why he lashes out so intensely when Jackie refuses to see him anymore and begins dating his older brother. It is also worth nothing that Tim got along just as well with Jackie's six-year-old son, Bo, who he's closer in age to than Jackie herself.

Added DiffLines:
*UrbanLegendLoveLife: * Tim has a reputation as a notorious and prolific womanizer. Even the adults seem aware, with parents cringing at the thought of Riggins taking an interest in their daughters. In contrast to his reputation, throughout the series, we see him engaged in long-term, albeit extremely tumultuous, relationships with just three women (Lyla, Tyra, and Jackie) and he is genuinely distraught when each woman breaks up with him. While we see him flirt with rally girls, the only actual one-night stand we see him engage in is with Cheryl Sproles who makes it clear that she would welcome a repeat performance, but the age difference (she is over ten years Tim's senior) and her neediness make Tim uncomfortable and he refuses. He also serves as a [[BigBrotherInstinct protective older brother figure]] to some of the younger female characters such as Becky and Julie. He refuses their blatant advances, tries to redirect their interests to more age-appropriate companions, and generally tries to keep them out of trouble recognizing some of the bad intentions of the guys they encounter.
**It should also be pointed out that people often claim that Tim has slept with half of the girls (and women) in Dillon, but because of the odd way time passes on the show, for the majority of the show he is between 15-17 years old. So either there is a lot of exaggeration or a large number of older girls and older women ignored the [[DoubleStandard age of consent]].
***This is actually the case with Jackie who is portrayed to be in her early to mid-30s while Tim is 16. The show does not explicitly treat this as an unsavory pedophilic relationship, but Jackie eventually has a meltdown over the idea of anyone discovering that she has slept with a minor and ends the relationship. Tim is shown to be enamored with Jackie and enjoys both the physical and emotional nature of their affair. However, an objective and discerning viewer can see that Tim lacks the emotional maturity to be in such a relationship which is a big reason why he lashes out so intensely when Jackie refuses to see him anymore and begins dating his older brother. It is also worth nothing that Tim got along just as well with Jackie's six-year-old son, Bo, who he's closer in age to than Jackie herself.

* BewareTheNiceOnes: Coach--along with his wife Tami--is probably the nicest person on the show and serves as the town's moral touchstone on many occasions. That being said, if you EVER hurt his wife, his daughters OR his players, Coach ''will'' make you sincerely sorry ([[{{DeathGlare}} often without actually speaking]]), and even the toughest man will find himself apologizing profusely by the time he's done talking to him. The best part? When he's angry, he manages to be terrifiyingly intimidating ''without'' crossing any moral lines. (Again, he ''is'' the show's moral center)
