Now this … THIS … is a “Wordless Wednesday.” Except I ruined it, because here I am, writing words. But it’s too disturbing not to explain why little LBJ is shirtless in an Ohio cornfield.

This work of art comes from the archives of Sports Illustrated, where contributor Andy Gray likes to comb through old pictures of athletes in their awkward years to find the most embarrassing specimens possible. Fantastic work, Andy.

In fact, let’s make a habit of this, shall we? We can call it “Witness Wednesday.”

By the way, I just want to say that I think this is a strong contender against my peers’ pictures of their babies in bathtubs or with food smeared all over their faces.

Man, I hope it’s food, any way.
