Suggestions for next year’s showdown…
1) Battle of the former child stars
2) Battle of the fat men (Chris Farley, John Goodman, Ed Kennedy, Ron Jeremy…)
3) Battle of the porn stars (My money is on Ron)
4) Battle of old TV stars (Alf, David Hasselhof, Mr T, Pee Wee Herman…)
5) Battle of the Ex-Presidents (I’s like to see Clin-ton go up against JFK in a “Most Booty” category)
That’s all I got.
