Friday Excerpt from my Unpublished Biography

Mark Gastineau was sued in 1989 by a Peoria, IL father over the release of a DVD titled "Push It to the Limit". Commercials depicted the instructional video as Gastineau's own personal football technique, drills and coaching to the kids. However, this was false advertising. The actual tape consisteted of nothing but motivational speeches, bizarre inserts of Gastineau screaming into the camera, snorting lines of cocaine, dancing and in one instance, fondling a womans breast. He was also depicted screaming "GET FIRED UP" and seen tearing up a small television studio (going as far as to chew on the carpet). Gastineau settled out of court, and production on the short lived video was halted immediately. Very few copies exist today, but it remains one of the most serious cases of false advertising from any sports figure in the last 20 years.

Geriatric Predator Alert

We all knew we could look up the Andre the Giant (R.I.P.) for his nearly unmatched drinking ability. There is one way that he was not a role model: elderly abuse. Abusing old sports commentators is a serious offense. It's a shame this otherwise admirable mountain of a man was caught on tape doing this dispicable deed.

Update: Congratulations Firebird! You are the "Weiner!"

February is here! Besides being the month that holds Groundhog Day, Valentine's Day, and the most cases of diarrhea for Firebird, this is also a very cold month. What better way to keep warm than with our favorite white bean stew?

In honor of this dish, we will hold a comment caption contest for the dish/below picture:
