Hornung's Solution for the Modern Day NFL Player: Have More Sex and Avoid the Internet

Paul Hornung, as a former first overall draft pick with the Green Bay Packers, knows a little something about having fun as an athlebrity. (Yeah, I totally just coined that.) He won four world titles, including the first ever Super Bowl. So, he's not some amateur out beer-bonging with ladies of a more youthful nature.

And, via LBS, he is firmly convinced that he could rock out the rock star lifestyle, if he were still in his prime today. At least that's what he told The Monty Show on Sporting News Radio recently.

Monty: "You guys had a great life, but I don't think you could live that lifestyle today."

Hornung: "Oh hell you could. You're in such good shape, are you crazy? When you're 24-years-old, you weigh 215 pounds, you can work out every day of your life, you could make love to five girls a week and play 44 games of football. Hell."

That last "hell" right there is priceless (and so is the "make love" bit). Almost as great, indeed, as Hornung's solution to dealing with Matt Leinart like scenarios: "Don't get on the internet."

I gotta say, I'm a huge fan of ignorance-is-bliss and all that, but I've tried it. It doesn't fly that well when it's something as large and as powerful as the Googles that we're talking about. Eventually, they will get you.

Although I suppose if I were 24, famous and in great shape, I could probably do whatever I wanted. Up to and including punching the internet in the face. So there. Touche, Mr. Hornung. Touche.
