Also, LaVar was on some kind of home makeover show on TLC. My wife flipped out when she saw him and called me in from the other room.
His relative obscurity may have a bit to do with his relatively "clean" public record. I think you have to be implicated in a murder to become a truly popular linebacker. LaVar should run right out and assault a cabbie or a parking lot attendant and then claim that they had made a disparaging comment about his lack of endorsements... In a couple of months he can be the new Body Armour spokesman!!!
