As Sports by Brooks noted today, former NFL player Bill Romanowski is set to play a gay cowboy in a movie called "Weiners."

This isn't exactly "Brokeback Mountain," though. The movie is a comedy directed by Mark Steilen, who has previously worked on Farrelly Brothers movies like "There's Something About Mary" and "Stuck On You."

Romanowski has two post-football careers, one as an actor and one as a pitchman for various supplements. Although he was tainted by the BALCO scandal, Romanowski continues to shill for various substances you can put in your body to make you stronger and more energetic, starting a company called Nutrition53. If the side effects include flying into a rage and squeezing another man's testicles, as Romanowski acknowledged doing in his autobiography, I think I'll pass.
