Is Subway’s Jared a lover or a fighter?

Jared Some guy in Boston’s Dorchester neighborhood who calls himself Chris “Tiger” Stockbridge has challenged Subway pitchman Jared Fogle to a charity boxing match. Tiger claims he recently lost 100 pounds; Fogle got famous for shedding 250 pounds by eating low-fat Subway sandwiches. Sure, Jared can be annoying, but that’s no reason to pummel the guy into submission. There are, however, plenty of other C- and D-list celebrities (e.g., Danny Bonaduce, Barr Williams, Tonya Harding) who are willing to mix it up in the ring. This time, Tonya wouldn’t need a lead pipe to vanquish the competition. Or maybe Tiger could just take on some 5th graders in a test of knowledge. Let’s get him started with an easy question. True or false? Your 15 minutes are almost up.

I'm with TAITS. This post is all over the place. You may need to ask your doctor about tweaking your ADD prescription.
