Nielsen Motivated Cameos

by

Michael Strahan will make a cameo on Chuck, which apparently got renewed and we never were privy to this information, or else we heard about it, maybe even posted about it, but forgot because we don’t give a shit. Anyhow, based on the one episode we’ve watched of this show, I imagine that two things will happen during his cameo: 1) He will physically and/or verbally threaten Chuck’s best friend to hilarious results, because it is always funny when larger guys intimidate their smaller counterparts, and 2) He will make a pass at Chuck’s love interest, thus be a plot point for at least an entire episode.

Surely some pithy comment will be made about this as well.

Anyhow, I’m sure Mr. Strahan doesn’t mind doing these side gigs for a little extra cash, but it still has to stick in his craw that he probably doesn’t have a choice due to that egregious divorce settlement from awhile back. We imagine he brought a lot of the trouble onto himself, but unless he killed her mother there didn’t really seem to be much justification for the verdict that was rendered.

Still, at least when he retires he actually retires. None of this waffling Brett Favre nonsense that is perpetually in the news cycle annoying the bejesus out of me. Make all the cameos you want Michael, but if you could convince your friend to take a knee one more time, all of us outside of Wisconsin who follow this sort of thing would greatly appreciate it.

More later if anything else catches out eye.
