What is it about all these great ’90s quarterbacks becoming totally ripped? Don’t these guys have anything better to do in retirement than lift weights?

Guess not. First Brett Favre, now Troy Aikman. The former Dallas QB put on a gun show recently at a golf event. And seemed to be impressing the ladies.

Aikman recently announced that he would not be joining the concussion lawsuit against the NFL. Maybe because he would rather just find the people responsible and twist their heads off. Aikman Hulk!

I’m going to assume all this getting ripped is some kind of mid-life crisis thing. It has to be with Favre. He is just acting too looney lately with the guns and the beard. If Troy Aikman starts growing out his facial hair, we’ll know he’s also suffering through an existential crisis.

I hope these guys get over it before they reach that awkward age. You know what I mean. A 45-50 year old man who is ripped, it still works. But once you hit 50, there are certain things you can no longer get away with. Tattoos. Guns. Walking around shirtless. A heavy tan. Those things become incredibly creepy around 50. And at around 60, forget it. You become the kind of person everyone crosses the street to get away from.

Get it out of your system while you still can Troy.
