Werth & Wurster

Today's we feature a bonus version of Separated at Birth.

After the conclusion of last week's episode of The Best Show on WFMU, fans (called the "Friends of Tom [Scharpling,host]) gathered at a bar near the station for a Gathering of the FoTS where they met the host and that night's guests Ted Leo, and John Hodgman. Also appearing live was one of the show's famous callers Philly Boy Roy, who is actually Jon Wurster, primary drummer for such indie acts as Superchunk, The Mountain Goats, Bob Mould, and touring or session drummer for a whole host of other bands like REM, Rocket from the Crypt, and The New Pornographers.

As you can imagine, Philly Boy Roy is rarely photographed so while checking out a fan's photographic account of the night, I thought it was interesting to see that he looks ironically like Phillies' RF Jayson Werth.

On that note, let's listen to my all-time favorite track from Ted Leo and the Pharmacists.

Separated at Birth: NFL Edition #4

Bears quarterback Jay Cutler is like the two-face from that one episode of Seinfeld. Sometimes he's on the cover of Michigan Avenue looking clean and athletic, but most of the time he looks tired, fat, and unfortunately a lot like notoriously ugly (but funny) comedian Eugene Mirman.

Separated At Birth: NFL Edition #3

Now that Aaron Rodgers of the Green Bay Packers is finally out of Brett Favre's shadow, I can finally share that I think he looks like BJ Novak (The Office's Ryan Howard), and people might actually know who I'm talking about.

Novak, by the way, plays a small but important role in this summer's Inglorious Basterds which is very much worth seeing.

Separated at Birth 2

Yet another installment of Separated at Birth, again inspired by my beloved Philadelphia Eagles. Apparently I only make these marginal celebrity lookalike connections during football games.

Eagles TE Brent Celek & SNL Star Andy Samberg

I think it's really pretty close, right? It would be hard for anyone to have quite as big of a nose as Samberg, but if Celek did they would be dead on separated at birth brothers, one being a puny funny man and the other a jacked up football player.

For those keeping score this is our second Samberg reference in less than a month.

Separated at Birth

In honor of this weekend's NFC Championship game including my beloved Eagles, I present this football themed first installment of Cubsicle's Separated at Birth series:
Eagles LB Stewart Bradley & Zach Roloff

Eagles linebacker Stewart Bradley looks like he could be the long lost older brother of the Roloff Family, no? Or at least what Zach would have looked like if he weren't a little person.

*The comparison would be much easier to see if there were any good pictures of Zach Roloff on the internet. I promise it's uncanny.
