Jason Varitek Dorks Out

Just the other day, I was thinking to myself: "Self, I don't know I've ever seen a photo of Jason Varitek looking like a goofy dweeb. I've seen 'super-serious Jason' and 'slightly less serious, but still totally all-business Jason' and 'ok, fine, I'll give you a small tiny grin Jason'... but I don't know that I've ever seen 'dorky Jason'. Even in pirate gear, he still looks like he'd kick your ass if you looked at him funny."

That is, until now.

I know it's for a good cause and all, but... HAH!

Lest Jason think I'm picking on him too much lately, how about video of the super-cute commercial with Jon Lester for his Putt-Putt Tournament? (yes, I just called it "super-cute")

    I can't ever imagine what possessed him to pose like that.

    Maybe they got him drunk.

    Dork Jason is my favorite

    Aww I love our Tek. And his voice. is so so so amazing.
    I'm making that picture my background ;)

    Haha! Maybe that look is because he just realised he's holding a picture book created by Jonathan Papelbon. I think that could make someone react that way. And on the subject of adorable!Tek, this is a pretty awesome pic, too.

    He looks so sweet when he smiles; he should do it more often.

    My favorite part of that commercial? "Juuust a bit outside." Jon and Tek are fabulous, though. I wonder if Paps got wind of their acting prowess...

    Speaking of which, when are we going to see The Manny Commercial? Or did I miss something?

    Tek looks like a complete tool there. That is all.

    Also I JUST came across this....seriously, what the hell?!

    He has three young daughters...his animated story-book reading skillz have got to be good!

    I love that ad:-) And on kind of related note...anyone else seen Beckett's NECKLACE commercial? It's been on NESN a few times...

    saw that ad today - pretty cute!

    why does Tek look like a midget in that picture?

    Piney, that Hillary Clinton thing is one of the most bizarre analogies I've ever seen.
