I had NO CLUE who this guy was. Did you? (Subway commercial)

AlmostAtheist

There have been a series of Subway commercials airing lately with Jared (the "lost weight eating sandwiches" subway spokesman) having a "more meat/less fat" argument with this other guy. The other guy was a total unknown to me. The commercial left me feeling like he was a somebody to somebody, just not to me.

But maybe I was wrong. Tonight I noticed that the two of them introduced themselves. "Hi, I'm Jared", said Jared. "And I'm Michael Strahan," said the nobody. Apparently I wasn't the only one thinking, "Who the hell IS this guy?" I didn't catch his last name, but I figured with "Michael" and "Subway", I could probably find him on Google. Sure enough, he's a football player. (I had guessed boxer.)

Anybody else seen these commercials and wondered?

Michael Strahan - defensive player for the New York Giants football team. He's been been around a long time, and is one of the better-known players in the league.

Your man license is coming up for renewal Dave, and this incident will be looked at closely when we are considering your application. It's not just automatic you know.

Ummm... I think there's been a mistake. See, I used a public terminal for JWD access earlier and I think someone may have used my account to spread lies about me. I mean, heck -- *I* know who Michael Str-what's-his-name is! Who doesn't? I keep up with football, like anybody else. He's on the right end of the field, or something... right? He led the affiliation in home-down's, or touch-up's, or something. Good guy.

On my manly days, I always go with the black tutu. Let's 'em know you mean business, and da boyz down in da 'hood know not to mess wit' me.

Dan, of course, got this shot of me when I was warming up before my ballet lesson. I always hang around for his synchronized swimming lessons, then we go out for beers. (Well, Dan orders Zima, but it's the same idea... I guess...)
