The Can Do Jock- Dhani Jones





I am not even going to embarrass myself and act like I know anything about football; I don't know beans about it. I just played Madden on PS2 a couple of times, that's it. But this handsome gent plays for the Cincinnati Bengals and stars in his own television series called "Dhani Tackles the Globe" on the travel channel. He also enjoys writing poetry in his free time.





Some might debate his current bear status, but at 6 ft 2 and 235 lbs, he's a musclebear in my book. Even the most purest of bear admirers have to admit that his sexy chubbier days are yet to come (all y'all will be droolin' then). I can't wait until he retires and starts skipping workouts. hehe.







Be sure to check out his show on the Travel Channel.

Throwback Bear - Frankie Faison





Frankie Faison

This beaaauutiful man has been a favorite of mine for a long time. He has played supporting characters in films such as Meet the Browns, White Chicks, The Thomas Crown Affair, and Down to Earth. He is probably best known for his supporting work in Silence of the Lambs, in fact he was the only actor in the original film that reprised his role in all four Hannibal Lector films.

My personal favorite character he played was the foul-mouthed slumlord in Coming to America. Frankie is the epitome of a throwback bear. He has held it down for bearish men of color before it was even in vogue to be an exotic bear. Cheers to you Mr. Faison.
