Someone Should Hire Ickey Woods

I have to give him credit...he carries on with his 15 minutes of fame. I have heard him on the radio for "Life Pass It On" PSA's to encourage organ donation..

but this new TV spot shows him to be quite the actor and ham (excuse the pun)

Has he ever done sports talk or color commentary?

I'd suggest the qualifications for doing regular commentary exceeds his knowledge of the Ickey Shuffle. Or at least I'd hope so.

The commercial lays me out. I have a renewed interest in learning the Shuffle.
Maybe he could parlay this to an acting career... be the next OJ, sans all of the legal issues.

How about a T.V drama called "Cold Cuts". Ickey Woods could play a coroner cutting up cold bodies looking for hot clues to solve murder cases! In reality, I believe after football he started a meat distribution business which has done very well. An athlete who did NOT waste all of his money on crap and is now a successful businessman. We could certainly use more men of his caliber. Shuffle on brother! And enjoy those cold cuts!

Over 1.1 million hits and rolling on YouTube...

Geico has something called "ShareTheShuffle"

It is definitely a hit...is anyone talking about this on radio here???

Despite losing his son a few years ago and trying to put things together after an NFL career, Ickey always seems to provide a positive influence toward the community and fans. I remember seeing him and Pete Johnson sitting together at the Ohio State Fair a few years back - what a backfield they would have made. All the best to Ickey in whatever he does.

Maybe the cold cuts ad is a nod to his successful meat business.

I wouldn't call it "Ickey Meats" though....

I think Ickey would make a great local host. How about Bengals radio network? Or a local sports talk show with celebs and old team favorites as cameos?
