Big Baby auditioned for the part of Michael Oher in the true story "The Blind Side."

Boston Celtics forward Glen "Big Baby" Davis actually auditioned for the role of Oher before Hancock settled on Quinton Aaron, a 24-year-old actor from New York, who is 6-8 and 380 pounds.

No, no, Glen. This part is serious. You can't laugh the whole time.

6'8", 380 pounds?

Let's hope that BBD hasn't found a mentor.

Seriously - it can't be good news for his basketball career that he found out he was too slight for the part.

I think BBD could be a decent actor (by athlete standards) though.

I'm more stunned that an LSU Tiger would audition for a movie about a Ole Miss Rebel.

This is about the one thing I hate most about Baby, since he likes acting, everything he says and the way he says it sounds very phony to me... even if he's being genuine.

Exactly.  Let's get him into slapstick comedy.  It should help improve his ability to flop even more! 

The fact that he is being considered along with a 380 lb guy should tell BBD that he's not in good enough shape yet lol.
