Cross Post Bonanza

As seen here, I've dug up some gems from olden days, and I feel it's only appropriate to cross-post them on as many blogs as I can. Should I be Tweeting this too?

A higher-res version of this picture... between this and the Timberwolves' "Buy a can of corn and get free tickets to the game which are actually worth less than the can of corn" promo, I think we've got two pictures to clearly sum up these franchises.

Nobody wants it more than me, huh?
22 days after this issue hit the stands, Randy drove his car the wrong way into construction, over a traffic cop who was ordering him to stop.  Cops found marijuana in his car.  He was charged with assault with a deadly weapon (his Lexus) and possession.  Luckily the "Randy Ratio" really helped his team on the field... to a 6-10 record.

Hey there!  Do yourself a favor and read some of that article.... this kind of stuff in hindsight just makes me giddy. Hey, was there any pressure on you?  If you've never done so, I highly suggest checking out the Esquire article on Todd and his father... great stuff.

Also, who let Ashley Shaeffer into Todd's photo shoot?

Finally, we have Nate Newton. First of all, I did not know that Nate was nicknamed "The Kitchen". Apparently he ballooned up to over 400 pounds after his retirement (not surprising), and had the gastro-bypass surgery, dropping him to a svelte 220. Hey, way to go, Nate.

He also was arrested twice in 2001 for possessing almost 400 GODDAMNED POUNDS OF MARIJUANA.

No wonder he had put on so much weight.  (that was an easy one)
