I was sitting on my couch the other night when I saw Michael Strahan with a baseball bat in his hand endorsing a new Easton Stealth Speed bat for Sports Authority.
Here’s the spot.
Michael Strahan? Really? A former defensive end is better than anyone else out there? Better than any active or retired baseball player?
After I tweeted about it, the fine folks at E-Poll Market Research in Encino, Calif., actually told me that there was a pretty good reason for Strahan to be in the spot. Their E-Score actually shows that Strahan is ranked among the funniest active and retired athletes.
Here’s the E-Score Funniest Athletes List, in order of how funny people think they are.
1. Bam Margera
2. Dwyane Johnson
3. Terry Bradshaw
