Nacho Libre

In college, when I had a goatee and wore a cowboy hat, people told me I looked like Tim McGraw. I don't know, maybe it was the chest hair.



At other times in life I've been told I looked like Quentin Tarantino.



But for the last couple years the most often heard reference is to that of Jack Black.

I definitely think I look like him, but what I think seals the deal is the similarities of our personalities. If I ever throw up a rock fist or play air guitar, people see Dewey Finn of School of Rock.



If I get irritated and angry they see the Motorcyclist from Anchorman.



But most recently, as my hair has gotten absurdly shaggy and I had a mustache for a month I am immediately pegged as Nacho Libre.





At our recent US Team training a couple of high schoolers got creative and this is what they threw up on the screen at the end of one of my evening talks.



Uncanny resemblance...I think so.
