A little Oscar trivia for ya. I wonder what Glen is thinking. He could've been attending the Oscars.

Glen Davis: I get that he was impoverished and mistreated as a child, mr director, but for the love of god how am I supposed to play football blind?!

Yeah, LOL! ... woof! (TP) Thanks, Bass ... I needed a good laugh!

On another tip, Glen said if he'd gotten the part he would have quit basketball and pursued an acting career. ;)

Yup ... I was a bit taken aback at that comment as well. I assumed at first he was joking, but the reporter said he was very serious. Hmmm .....

Nah, I am positive he was joking. BBD is a joker, a charmer, a very funny guy. He's also a great dancer and was on Dancing with the Stars. He said a few months ago that he'd like to play in the NFL too.
