That Guy Roaming the Sideline Looks Sooooo Familiar
And speaking of Air Force's Jeff Reynolds ...

I defy anybody to dispute that he's the long-lost twin of "The Count," from Sesame Street. Which, of course, I mean only in the most complimentary way.

The Count was among my favorite characters on the show -- well, him and Cookie Monster -- and Reynolds seems like a great guy who made an instant impression at the annual preseason media day with a lengthy discussion about our shared interest in long-distance running (he has bad knees, though, and can't run as much as he once did). Still, I can't look at him without starting to count something -- last night, it was missed Falcon free throws -- much the way I can't look at coach Jim Boylen and not see the actor Jeff Daniels.

Just when I thought you couldn't get any dumber, you go and do something like this... and totally redeem yourself!
