Strangely enough, you look exactly like I thought you'd look, except without glasses.

...several other fellows contribute to our blog. We all call ourselves The Brothers Judd as a collective, but that’s just because of the way the site started.

Just wait until inheritance time, bro.

Pajamalanche!

So you are the one on the right on the logo? Always wondered.

You look close enough to the cartoon atavars, I must say.

You realize of course, after the Pajamas Media kerfuffle down in Washington on Monday, that Dick Durbin and Ted Kennedy now know what you look like...

So Steve is the one with the glasses, I reckon.

No, I'nm on the Left. Cross-eyed as a kid, glasses since 5, though only for reading nowadays. Of course, the Other Brother is so old now he wears them too.... & he's balder....

Peter:

Just wait until your crazy aunts and uncles start dropping by unannounced....

I think I saw you at the Pheasant Lane Mall once.

OJ: Does this mean I have to go from the VanGough to the full beard?

[with my infrequency of actual posts, I'm probably considered more like a Step-brother who's supposedly getting out of prison some time soon somewhere down south]

Here's the Other Brother:

http://www.brothersjudd.com/webpage/stephen.jpg

All y'all Brothers from Other Mothers, send me photos and I'll post them.

Appropriate that Bellow is the profile beneath yours.

Jim beat me to it. I hate it when that happens.

You look nothing like I expected - you look almost normal - not at all like the crazed right wing extremist freak that you are! :-)

The better Bellow.

Bret:

How about this:

forget new guinea, get a research team into that beard! just kidding.

Hmmm. Well. This fellow isn't sunken-chested or scowling, he looks cheerful, there's even a bit of a twinkle. Obviously this can't be you. What have you done with the real Orrin?

So who's that?

joe shropshire wrote: "even a bit of a twinkle"

Yeah, yeah, the twinkle thang - that's it! Color the hair and beard white, put on a big red suit and hat, and you've got Santa Claus! Where's the reindeer?

Bret:

Me at the '87 Final Four in N.O.--the only time I've not been bearded since junior year of High School.

Orrin looks like the host of an outdoors/fishing show rather than the host of conservative blog. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

However, when you run his photo through the face recognition software at myheritage.com, the closest celebrity match is Werner Heisenberg, followed by Doris Day.

Okay, well then - I'd say your '87 picture was exactly what I expected.

You've aged well.

Which explains why Heisenberg was so smart:

Ugh. 'Cuse! In '87?

C'mon the 2-3 zone Boeheim plays is a communist plot.

True conservatives play man to man, which is why you should have been rooting for Bob Knight and the eventual champions, IU.

And shouldn't you be a fan of the Hall anyway?

Jim:

Central NY in Winter offers few distractions other than Colgate hockey & Cuse hoops.

I dunno. I went to college in Rochester and if anything left with an even deeper dislike of Syracuse b'ball -- and don't even get me started on the Buffalo Bills.

I did become a fan of Redwings AAA baseball however. The cheap beer at the ballpark played a part in that tho.

Here's mine.

OJ:

Here's an idea: When a Brother from Another Mother sends you a picture, put up a post giving your guess as to what this individual looks like and then invite people to chime in. The next day, rip open the envelope and post the photo.

I always pictured you as a slightly smaller guy with light blond hair and a beard.

6' 2" 255lbs

Jim in Chicago:

Are you kidding? Zone is part of the grand heritage of college basketball -- nothing more important to conservatives than conserving tradition.

PS When I was in high school, our cheering section used to chant "1-3-1" for our zone defense, which was been used continuously for over 40 years. Again, tradition.

Excuse me...has been used continuously.

40 years? That's nothing. Rooseveltism and Stalinism have both been around for forty years.

And I thought y'all were football players out there in corn country anyway.

Bob Knight IS tradition. Bob calls the shots for all those guys.

And the new Mass in English is also forty years old.

To be fair, I'm ok with full court zone presses and even half court traps, if used sparingly. But to sit back in a 2-3 zone all game long? That's the devil's work.

Hey,it finally worked against Kansas. I just can't believe Boeheim didn't do a better job recruiting coming off the '03 title (though the '06 incoming class is supposed to be good).

6'2" 255, eh? We're gonna need a bigger luggage rack.

oj,
Interesting comment back and forth until 8:30ish when thread went off in unrelated direction.
Surprisingly, I'd never developed any concept of your physical appearance, so said photo seems correct to me.
However, let me talk to the Mrs. about the height/weight ratio, looking back over the oj recipes, you're too much into the the really good food with, of course, reading replacing the excersize necessary to be the 200#'s you should be.

Jim in Chicago:

40 years? That's nothing. Rooseveltism and Stalinism have both been around for forty years.

It was necessary to change those things, but that's not the case in college basketball. In fact, the zone (in all its multiple versions) is part of what makes college basketball so much fun to watch, in contrast to the NBA, which is almost as boring as your beloved soccer.

And I thought y'all were football players out there in corn country anyway.

College football is definitely Nebraska's most popular sport (all games since 1962 sold out) but college athletics of all kinds predominate here: the NU baseball team is hugely popular and the College World Series draws every sports fan in Omaha, the NU women's volleyball team sells out every game and the UNO Mavericks set college hockey attendance records, and all of Omaha will go collectively bonkers when we get an NCAA basketball regional in a few years.

I never would have guessed you look like Al from "Home Improvement."

I thought scrawny, head full of dark hair and round glasses.

OJ:

By the way, when you say "send photos" do you mean snail mail or digital imagery? Forgive me if that's a stupid question.

digital

Sandy:

I get the "Al" a lot. Better than the "ZZ Top" I got as a substitute teacher or the "John Denver" before puberty.

I can't quite tell what the book is between "The Handmaid's Tale" and "The Thanatos Syndrome," but I hope you do know that if those two books ever touch -- BAM, there goes Hanover.

You asked for it: erp on the way to meet the bros online.

Yes, but Atwood is hilarious:

Peter;

I set up that dodge long ago. The difference is, my link works :-).

P.S. erp, your link doesn't work for me either.

Try this one: erp @ work

AOG -- Did you know that Mel Gibson looks just like you? Probably not half as smart tho.

Correction:

Damn, I was hoping you had a scanner or something. Digital isn't my forte.

Just as I pictured you!
