Red Sox outfielder Coco Crisp has an idea for a television show.
Coco Crisp is shopping his idea for a new reality show to television networks. The program, which mixes the elements of dating-themed programs with the reward opportunities of a game show, is tentatively titled, “May/December.”
As he envisions it, a 30- or 40-something single is set up on blind dates with someone of the same age, as well as someone in his/her 20s. The dater then secretly selects a favorite, and if it is the one also chosen by an audience, telephone or Internet vote, cash and prizes will be won.
That is a revolutionary concept… this man is a visionary. This idea, if I understand it correctly, is really something else. Combine dating and a game show? That’s just what TV needs. This is going to blow minds. I know that there are many of you out there who, like me, just aren’t satisfied by Elimidate. We need more. We need cash prizes to go along with the douchebags and the whores. It’s a niche that must be filled.
I think it’s great when athletes have interests outside of the playing field. Especially when those interests include putting more garbage on television. Much love to Coco Crisp. Thanks for looking out for all of us.

Funny stuff. Dude – 35 comments on your Nascar post? That’s more than all the comments from the Marcus Vick posts and arguments with Black, ain’t it?

Coco is obviously not his real name and even if it was what other cereal would you like to be named after? Captain Crunch? Cookie Crisp?

Well, he apparently broke his finger and will be out for at least 10 days, so he now has a little extra time on his hands to sell his brilliant idea to network execs.

You’re just sore that Coco broke his leg, thus destroying your fantasy team’s chances this week.
