The things we do to women….

….especially when they’re dressed as giant bratwursts.

ESPN’s headline to this story, as of this writing, is the entirely appropriate — if journalistically disastrous — “Frank (Go No) Furter”. I am NOT making this up. And as always happens when I use the word “sausage” more than twice in a single blog post, I am now thirsty for a beer. If you’ll excuse me….
