O Caption My Caption! Brett Keisel 2/6/11

February 6, 2011 by Rey 11 Comments

by Patrick ‘Rey’ Reynell

There is often nothing funnier than capturing a facial expression or occurrence at the right time, or, should we say, the most inopportune time.

I challenge you, loyal readers, to view the picture below and provide a captivating caption that will cause “the shores a-crowding” with “people all exulting.” Should you provide the wittiest of captions, for you the flag will be flung and the bugles will trill.

In honor of the “Big Game” (We can’t refer to it as the SB, right?), this week we have Pittsburgh Steelers’ defensive end Brett Keisel at media day doing his best Troy Polamalu impression:

You’ve got the context, now make like the father of free verse and create the best caption you can in the comments below.

    Parting the Red Sea was the biggest challenge for me … but a pretty neat trick overall, don’t you think?

    Pucker up. Sure, if Suzy Kolber requests it, I would shave.

    Hair care. Pittsburgh’s Brett Kiesel unlocks his secret to beard manageability: Old Spice hair and body wash,

    Haha. Some hilarious stuff, gentlemen! Allow me to join in…

    “Well, I grew the beard so no young ladies would confuse me with Big Ben. Then the son of a gun shows up to the Super Bowl with a beard, too, so I’m forced to go out with this wig on!”

    “My name is Brett Keisel, and I’m addicted to Head-and-Shoulders. I just love how luscious it makes my hair feel! I can’t get off the stuff!”
