Beer Man / Taco Bell? There's a good joke there somewhere, I just can't figure it out.

Michael Lewis has to be the best story in football.

And it would be a fantastic sports movie. I\'m surprised he hasn\'t sold his story to someone. I\'d pay to see it.

I\'m surprised that Budweiser hasn\'t started using him in their commercials yet.

I could envision a scene where guys are watching a Saints game, someone cries we\'re outta beer, oh no! Back to the TV, Lewis runs a kick for a touchdown, continues through the tunnel, runs in through the front door with a case of beer, everyone starts shouting \"Beer Man, Beer Man\", then you see him back on the TV running back onto th field.

I\'m surprised some marketing gimmick like that hasn\'t been done yet. I keep waiting for it to happen.

That just sounded like the best superbowl commercial I\'ve ever heard of yet. Maybe someone reading this will take up on your idea. I especially liked the touchdown part.....

A nice touch-up would be as he runs through the house and drops off the beer, 11 guys from the opposing team are still chasing him through the house - a good few yards behind, of course. They\'re winded and gasping, and are still behind him, back a little further, as he\'s running back onto the field. I\'d LMAO.

It\'d be great.

I\'m not sure about this but I know he doesn\'t drink, and he may not want to represent a beer company. Which is kinda strange since he used to deliver it.
I don\'t think he likes the nickname beer-man.

At the end of the commercial it would be cool to flash to an NFL training camp where several beer delivery guys are being timed in the 40, still in their bud uniforms. Too funny!

Now THAT\'s a good idea! Damn, they could make a whole add campaign out of this, multiple commercials.

Good to have you back LOE.

Always been here. Just lurking.

There\'s really not been that much to talk about since the draft ended.
