I've never been a big late night talk show guy. The jokes are awful and I just don't really find it entertaining at all. Whether it be Leno, Letterman, Kimmel, Fallon, Colbert or any other one... I'm sure Johnny Carson was good but that is way before my time. I will give credit where it is due however and say that I love when Jimmy Kimmel has celebrities read mean tweets but that isn't even him doing any of the work.  

But enough with the hating,  time for what really matters.

David Letterman post retirement.

Letterman for the most part has been completely out of the public eye since hanging it up a few months ago. First time most of us saw him post retirement was for 5 seconds during the Super Bowl when we all got a taste of his new beard.

Now that he's retired he can let himself go a little and it's pretty obvious he has. Today a picture went semi-viral of him running with his huge beard and noticeably bald head. Most might think Dave is just relaxing in his post retirement life I think I know what is really up.....


David Letterman killed Santa and has to take over for him now.

Just think about it for one minute......

• He just "retired" from his awesome job as the host of The Late Show last May. I know he's in his 60's it's not like he was working as a coal miner...... he was interviewing celebrities, talking to Paul Shaffer and telling the same awful jokes every night. You could do that job forever.

• He wasn't really spotted until the Super Bowl...which is not that long after Christmas. 

• When he was finally seen again he had a huge beard... Know who else does? This dude named Santa Claus, ever heard of him?

• He was recently seen running (with his huge beard)....could it be to try to keep off the Chris Kringle figure?

​I'm not saying that David Letterman is definitely going to be Santa in 2016 but you can't rule it out yet. What happened to Scott Calvin? His facial hair started growing like crazy and he put on a ton of weight when morphing into Santa. My guess is that Davey didn't like the extra pounds and is running to try to fight off the Santa weight. Probably shaved his head because his hair turned snow white and was rapidly growing. I bet if this picture was taken an hour later his hair would have been to his shoulders. 

If you've ever seen The Santa Clause you know that Scott Calvin (Tim Allen) scares Santa while he was on the roof, he falls off and Scott  takes over........I'm pretty sure he killed Santa but that gets kind of overlooked. Should't he have been going to jail instead of just stealing his job?

If that was how the world worked I'd kill Roger Goodell and become NFL commissioner today. Patriots need their picks back damnit!!

​Pretty clear to me that something is up with ole Davey boy. While you can't just assume he is turning into Santa Claus, I think I've connected the dots pretty well. We'll just have wait until December 25th and see.

P.S. Did the Late Show have a no beard rule?

​I'm guessing when Letterman was hosting the Late Show it wasn't like he was on the Yankees where there is an actual rule that you can't have facial hair or long hair.

But I bet he did need to keep up a decent look for appearances.

Now he's bald and has a huge beard. Could he be just rebelling like when someone leaves the Yankees?

Looking at you Joba Chamberlain.
