Dirk Nowitzki Had To Start Fasting Because He Ate So Much Right After He Retired He Started To Weigh Close To 300 Pounds

Goddamn I love Dirk. What a goofy motherfucker and retirement Dirk is probably only going to get better. Just for a reference – Dirk was listed between 235-245, so he’s out here putting on 50 pounds. That’s awesome.

The dude just knows how to have a good time. I mean, I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want this picture framed and hung in my basement:

Or this one

But now that he’s fat Dirk and just having a good time? I can’t think of many people I’d want to go on a drinking and eating binge with more than Dirk. You know he just houses some beer and starts talking German.

Can’t say I’m surprised, the guy just wants to eat ice cream at all times and follow it with some pizza. I mean he pretty much announced right away he’d be letting go. That’s the beauty of athletes retiring. They can finally eat whatever they want. They can finally do whatever they want.

So sign Dirk up for a pizza review with Dave and then I’d happily show him around for some ice cream and beer. It’s the least we can do. In the mean time, shut it down.
