Finally, Fame for JSF's Founder

After all the years of hard work pushing JoeSportsFan.com to its creative limits one Teen Wolf references at a time, one of our own is finally experiencing a certain albeit extremely minimal measure of mainstream fame for his efforts.

For those perusing their Sunday papers across the country, we’re pleased to inform you that the mug seated comfortably to the left of Alex Rodriguez on the cover of Parade Magazine’s “What People Earn” edition was none other than JSF’s own Josh Bacott:

And in case you can’t quite read the specifics, just know that his blogging fortune is topped even by the guy who looks like Santa Claus directly underneath him. We’re so proud.

Before anyone starts sending in donations to help Bacott afford the bare essentials, please understand that JoeSportsFan president Joe Mustache is compensating him for his work with a generous offering of 1983 Fleer cards.  Frankly, that’s as good as money.

1883 - President Chester A. Arthur welcomes the Forest Cities of Cleveland to the White House, setting a precedent for professional sports franchises visiting the White House - and a precedent for remembering anything Chester A. Arthur accomplished. He did have a hell of a mustache and chops, though.

1978 - Reggie Jackson homers in his first at bat of the season and for the fourth consecutive AB going back to the 1977 World Series. The Yankees faithful shower the field with Reggie Bars, sending a chill across the world to the Queen of England’s spine.

1984 - Wearing the colors of the Montreal Expos, Pete Rose notches hit number 4,000. Some 20 years later, baseball statisticians have put Rose’s run with the Expos just below getting beat up by a professional wrestler and being portrayed by Tom Sizemore in an ESPN Original Entertainment motion picture on the humiliation scale.

A truly bang up job of celebrating the new green jacket by Yahoo Sports upon the conclusion of the Masters.  Just enough cheese, a touch of complete and utter randomness and the unmistakable feeling of being completely forced:

In this case it’s more like two old friends we’re checking in with - Mickelson’s man-hooters.  Just in case anyone was under the impression that they had been harnessed, Saturday’s spandex-like white shirt proved otherwise:

Phil, we’re not asking for reduction surgery or anything drastic, but would it kill you to wear a freaking under-shirt and spare us the visual of your nipples bouncing towards Amen Corner?

In honor of Reggie Jackson, Version 1978, we watch and listen to the delicious goodness that is Reggie Jackson in chocolate and caramel candy form. Mmmm…

Patrick Imig is amazed and amused at the blueprint for destruction the Buffalo Bills seem to be following this NFL offseason. The poor Bills fans are eternally and royally screwed.
