Celebrity isn’t always fun. Sometimes it’s really really really really fun! So why does J-Football want to get the hell out of Texas A&M? Here are the six best theories our in-house social scientists could come up with.

As a follow up to acting in an all-American country music video, Johnny Manziel appeared on stage with country singer Wade Bowen in College Station, Texas.

Johnny Football roundhouse kicks the “Man” into “Manziel”. He’s a natural actor too. Just watch how he assumes the role of “guy who has hot chicks constantly in his truck”. FACT: Johnny Football’s Silverado sees more action than a Michael Bay marathon.

You might notice something strange about this photo of Johnny Manziel in Cabo, which Busted Coverage first got their hands on: yes, that is what appears to be a tattoo of the Texas Longhorns logo on his abs.

Johnny Manziel is a football player, but Johnny Manziel is also an athlete-student in college. Which means he takes classes, with other students, and gets grades and has tests and writes papers. Which also means that he has to go to class, should he want to artificially boost his grades with that ever-friendly participation grade. You’d think.

After last night’s Cotton Bowl performance, the legend of Johnny Football has grown to staggering heights that almost make me wish I still lived in Texas so I could experience the hype firsthand. Almost.

I wouldn’t mind getting a holiday card that read “Merry Christmas, from Kevin, Joe, Nick, and Johnny!” with this picture slapped on it.

I watched much of last night’s Mavs-Heat game with the sound off. It was nothing against any of the announcers; I was just doing other things and wanted to be able to keep tabs on the action without being totally sucked in. And in hindsight, I’m pretty satisfied with my decision, because it allowed me to miss a dumb development… until now.

Johnny Manziel, notable person with an attractive girlfriend, plays football. But he’s also tried his hand at other sports, because natural athletic gifts don’t usually limit themselves to a particular game. Thanks to the folks over at Busted Coverage, who uncovered these tweets from Sarah Savage, Manziel’s girlfriend, from over the summer, we know that bowling is one of those sports. Unfortunately.

It’s pretty unlikely that “I’m gonna go on Letterman!” is a thought racing through the minds of early-20something Heisman winners in the moments after their victory is announced, but it is a yearly tradition, and last night, Johnny Manziel became the latest. The list itself is unremarkable, enough that my main thought when watching the clip didn’t have to do with the list at all, but instead was: man, can Dave even pretend to care anymore?
