My nominee is Ray Nitschke from the Fighting Illini. He went on to an illustrious 15-year career as #66 on Lombardi’s Green Bay Packers before turning to philosophy and writing Also Sprach Zarathustra and The Will to Power.

Is “no-brianer” part of the joke? Is it just me, or do most of today’s “funnies” not seem funny.
