Roger Hazard – yep, he's bear

Roger Hazard – yep, he’s bear  gorilla!

Recently surfaced a query on the Bears Mailing List – is the superhumpy Roger Hazard of the A&E show “Sell This House” playing for the Bear team? This wouldn’t be the first time a beefy brauny TV personality had been speculated to be a man’s man (so to speak). But Roger looks like about two of him to me, and he has a certain, how you say, genital c’est-quoi.

In short order, up popped Roger’s BigMuscle link (sorry, no full frontals at this link, or anywhere, from what I can tell).

And here he is in all the upper part of his 240# splendidness:

Here’s his BMB handle: BigThknFurry  ( 73092 ). There are several drool-inducing shots of him posing with a gorilla statue. I think we can safely assume he’s gorilla-identified.

Here’s his description from the TV show website:

A renaissance man among designers, Roger is inspired by his first real passion: gardening. His eye for design is fueled by his love of light, color, texture, and form. Roger’s motto? Keep it clean. And all of the participants on Move This House will get to experience Roger’s creative vision firsthand as he sorts through their belongings and creates the design for their new home.
Growing up in Texas, Roger was always inspired by bigger and better. After studying environmental design and landscape architecture at Texas A&M University, he started his own landscaping company. He designed, plotted, and grew some of the most tasteful gardens in Houston.
His sense of design led him to work on homes. Discovering architectural potential in neglected historical homes, Roger began a new career in restoration. He moved to Atlanta where he found great success, buying and selling up to four houses a year. …

Don’t you just love renaissance men. Literally. Maybe it’s just me, but I read “renaissance” as “versatile.” For example, I don’t hesitate to call Rocco a renaissance man. And I know that I certainly am “always inspired by bigger and better” – especially when it comes to gorillaz.

I hope we don’t get him into trouble with the A&E network. Hey, why doesn’t A Bear’s Life advertise on their show? Show a little muscle with that bear market dollar, and pump up his show!
