Frankensteinbrenner

I was going to do a post on the Redskins draft and why it is/was stupid with maybe a few too many poop jokes, but since seeing this a few weeks ago, I can't get this image of Hank Steinbrenner out of my head.

This one:


Hank is a weird looking guy. He's got that big head, but theres lots of space on his face because of his puckered mouth and deep eyes. The thing that gets me is his turned up nose combined with his eyes. Hank has this... well, this monster thing going on. I can't quite place it, but it reminds me of Herman Munster.

Thats not exactly it though. Its too goofy. I'm not sure Hank has ever actually laughed in his whole life. The one thing he has inherited from his father (besides looks) is a complete lack of a sense of humor, and Herman Munster was hilarious.

So, drop the smiling and you get more Frankenstein-ish.


Thats closer. More serious, like you'd expect of someone who is dead and/or running the Yankees. Frankenstein's face is too thin though. Hank has that round head... More like, I dunno, like a pig monster? I'm not familiar with any pig monsters, so I googled "pig monster" and got this:


Strange to say there are some serious similarities there. The round face, the deep set eyes, and the pig nose all evoke Hank. Still, thats not quite it... If theres one thing we know about pig monsters, its they are all business. You know, eating people and such... I guess? While he doesn't have a sense of humor, theres still a comical aspect to Hank that isn't represented in the pig monster. Also, Hank doesn't have his left eye sewn shut. So far.

No, theres something more comical than that pig monster, but still pig monster-ish going on with Hank.

Wait! I've got it!

ManBearPig!


To refresh your memory, ManBearPig is half man, half bear, and half pig. He's got some of Hank's facial features (pig nose, tiny deep-set eyes, big head), he's comically covered in blood, and he's hilarious!
