Who’d Have Guessed?

Would you ever have guessed that Nate Newton is Tre Newton’s father? Aside from the same last name, of course.

Tre looks like an athlete. Nate looks like a football playing Santa Claus. I’m not saying Nate’s not great, because he is. He helped Emmitt Smith to become the all-time leading rusher, Troy Aikman to make the Hall of Fame, and the Dallas Cowboys to win 3 out of 4 straight Super Bowls (92, 93, & 95) with an NFC Championship Game appearance in between. Not bad for a fat guy.

Nope, I don’t see the similarity.
