Mark Gastineau is an '80s classic. That may be a little too far back for some millennial football fans, but who cares what millenials think anyway? Last I heard they were destroying the avocado industry, or something like that. He was a defensive end back when fantasy football leagues didn't have computers to rely on. To be honest, I don't even know if they had fantasy football back then.
While Mark has been out of the limelight for some time, his daughter Brittny has been chasing the spotlight for quite a while. Can we talk about the spelling of her name for a minute though? I think it could be used as proof of CTE. No one with a functioning brain would name their daughter Brittny. Enough roasting Brittny though. She's been known to hangout with Hollywood elites like Paris Hilton, and had a reality show. She models as well, which is no surprise with those looks.
