Seidel: The Butt of jokes, U-M tight end has last laugh

Let's start by quoting that great philosopher, Beavis, who captured the wonders of life when he quipped: "Did you know when you eat rump roast you're eating a cow's butt?"

Ah, there's nothing like a silly butt joke.

A few years ago, I was watching a replay of a football game on television, and Michigan tight end Jake Butt was on the screen. "That's awesome!" my son screamed. "A tight end named Butt!"

What do you expect? My son is a teenager. He jumped out of his chair, paused the TV and took a picture he still has on his phone.
