I guess that with the Tebowing craze, someone else had to get in on the act. Now there's this kissing-one's-bicep deal that's known as Kaepernicking.



CBS-13 in Sacramento is making a big deal out of it.

There's just one problem. THIS guy's been doing it for years. Copyright infringement?!?

Does he have a tattoo there?

I didn't see the other picture at first but I was about to say that's an old wrestling gimmic.

If that's the difference, then fine, Jon. That meme was the only example I could find of Kaepernick doing it. 13 seems to think that it's just the bicep thing, and they've been posting pics of other people kissing their bicep....

You're exactly right, Mark. Scott Steiner and his brother Rick are perhaps the finest wrestlers ever to come out of Michigan (they had that schtick where they would wear Michigan letter jackets to the ring), and Scott started that kiss-the-bicep thing in the mid-'90s when he took the handle "Big Poppa Pump."

When I was at UD I knew a body builder that use to do it. That was 1984/1985. It's definitely not new.
