Zak Keasey Is Your New Drexl Spivey

You know that guy from college, the white dude with dreads? He always talked about "the kind," listened to WAY too much reggae, and always smelled of patchouli oil?

He's the new fullback for the 49ers, and his name is Zak Keasey.

I'd give him some crap about how weirdly he spells his first name - isn't it supposed to be Zach, or Zack? What the what? But clearly, there's a lot more things worth making fun of.

White guys with dreads is rarely a good look - and yes, I have friends who have worn their hair like this. That doesn't make it okay.

Look, anyone can and should wear their hair any way they want, even if they look like a maroon. But isn't there a little Drexl Spivey going on here? I'm talking, of course, about Gary Oldman's character from True Romance. Which, of course, begs the question -- is it white boy day?

Nah, it ain't white boy day.

I will say this - in looking for a picture of Mr. Keasey, I ran across this photo, and all I can say is, at least Keasey doesn't look like Nick Reid, linebacker for the Chiefs:

Quite clearly, that's the most ridiculous looking player in the NFL.
