Poker, anyone?

This is probably a shot in the dark, but do any of you watch professional poker on TV? I've been watching it since college (when the World Poker Tour was only on the Travel Channel and ESPN didn't cover the World Series of Poker, ha ha) and I can't believe it took this long to notice that Chris "Jesus" Ferguson and John Smoltz could be brothers. Obviously "Jesus" has faaaaaar more hair ;) but I still see a resemblance.

Here's a video of "Jesus" doing a card trick -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMoc7tHMQOg

I think it's 50% voice and 50% beard. :D

OMG.
The twin-ness; and I had no idea you were such a poker buff! LOL

It amused me so much! I'm glad others see the resemblance.

Maybe one day I'll post a picture of an ex-boyfriend of mine who also resembles Smoltzie. Maybe that's why I don't love the real version as much; my version and I don't speak anymore, even though we see each other at church every week and at our mutual friends' houses.

It's hard to dote on someone (Smoltz) who reminds me of what could have been a great relationship (Ex).

Aren't you glad he doesn't dress this way? lol.

Lizziebeth said...

foudini - YES, although I still wish he would quit with the shorts, dress shoes and no socks look, too! :)
LT, finally I understand the ambivalence towards Tiger Lily...nuff said ;P

Wow. Are you sure Smoltzie didn't just put on a wig and a cowboy hat looking for a side job just in case baseball didn't work out for him? =]
